Quick and Easy Handmade Centerpieces

So I am going through all of my photos and finding so many photos of things I made and never blogged about! 

A friend asked me to help her with some quick and easy centerpieces for 

a small shower. 

The couple was expecting their second child, a boy!

I made some simple dark and light blue flowers - 2 small and 2 large

The small flowers had little blue baby feet in the center while the large flowers had a photo of the family in the center. 

I found some really inexpensive but cute blue ceramic pots at Michaels and added some brown shredded packing material to the pot as a filler. 

They were super easy, quick and came out so cute. 

 I also helped make cute little tags for the favors.

Ice Cream Party!

So my daughter celebrated her 3rd birthday earlier this summer and I had such a great time with her Ice Cream themed party!!

The photos I took of everything aren't the greatest but I hope you get an idea of how cute it all turned out! 

I forgot to take photos of the Ice Cream shaped invitations that came out so adorable (hey I have a 5 month old!) but promise to print out a sample and share some photos here!

I made these really cute Ice Cream circles that I hung from the light in my kitchen. I was so amazed at how adorable it turned out.

I had a blast creating a Banner and garland.

And this adorable pink, brown and cream 3-D Ice Cream garland

One of my favorite parts of planning parties is the Goody bags! I really enjoyed making and finding all of the items for the kids goody bags. 

I used pink bags with white handles that I got at party city and added a custom sticker:

The girls got handmade headbands. 

I glued and wrapped white ribbon around a plastic headband and glued 

Ice Cream appliqué that I got from DesignsbyDMK on Etsy. 

The boys (only 2 of them) got these adorable books from Amazon. 

Everyone got 

These amazing wonderful delicious handmade cookies that I found from

CookieXchange on Etsy 

I made custom coloring books and included a small box of crayons:

                   

We had an Ice Cream Shaped piñata and played pin the cherry on the ice cream cone. 

The kids all made their own ice cream sundae's and I provided tons of toppings. 

Emma had such a wonderful 3rd Birthday and I enjoyed planning it!!

Sunflower Wedding

Congratulations to Sonia and Joe who were married this past weekend!!


Sonia was the winner of the Save the Dates I donated to the Pink Comb Salon's Cure for Combs event last fall. You can read more about the event here! 


Sonia did not need Save the Date Cards so I designed Wedding invitations with a sunflower motif for her:

(Please note: I blurred out personal contact information from the photos which is why you see that blurred streak at the bottom)

After designing the invitations Sonia asked if I would do her favors and matching Thank You notes.

Favors were sunflower candles with a vanilla scent. They were packed with chocolate brown crinkle paper inside a white box. The box was adorned with a chocolate brown satin ribbon, a silk sunflower and the couples name and wedding date. 

Sunflower Candles were handmade by Etsy Artist Dragon's Den
