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!!

Tangled up in Ribbon!

Well hello there Bloggy land......I've once again neglected my blog!! Boo Hiss!!

Hello - my name is Kirby and I am a ribbon-a-holic!

I just can't get enough of it! I can't go into a Michael's without leaving with some ribbon, even if I don't need it. I have a hoarders mentality when it comes to the stuff - "I don't need 5 rolls of neon orange ribbon right now but it's on sale and someday I'm going to need it"!

It's not the easiest stuff to organize either! I usually end up buying ribbon for a project only to find I had 7 rolls of it in my tangled ribbon mess!!

Case in point:

So when my friend From Marz asked for suggestions on Facebook about what he should make using reclaimed wood! I thought he could make me some kind of ribbon organizer thingy! 

Take a look at this:

I am so happy with it! And look how organized I am! 

Of course if you look at the second picture- that second shelf has a basket and box, loaded with more ribbon!! Seems as though I'm going to need more! Here's hoping From Marz makes some more! 

Check out his other wonderful items from his shop while we are talking about him!!
