{Real Party} Aqua and Orange Chevron Giraffe First Birthday Party

November 14, 2011 2 Comments
Pin It

We recently had the pleasure of working with Marie on designing a set in chevron and polka dots for her little girl Lauren’s 1st birthday party. Lauren is a big fan of her Vulli Sophie La Giraffe, so that had to be in there as well! We supplied a few items to her and she was able to use them all in many different ways to achieve a truly custom look to her party. Talk about a crafty mamma! This party was originally posted at my good friend Lili’s blog at swanky::chic::fete…you can go there to see the complete set of pictures from this stunner of an event.

 

I love how she used the custom circles to personalize her cups, party hats and boxes, and even used them for cupcake toppers, too! And I’m also a huge fan of all the coordinating fabric she was able to find–she used fabric.com for the fun chevron prints! Be sure to see the rest of the photos at swanky::chic::fete.

beach baby photoshoot - 20

Sandy toes and sunkissed cheeks are always the best part about an adventure at the beach, and I just couldn't think of a better way to celebrate a little beach baby's birthday than to be out on the sand. After meeting at the Central Florida Martha Stewart Dreamers into Doers event, Jennifer from Party Dreamz started to working on this "Beach Baby Birthday" piece. We designed a table setting and { Read More! }

I fell in love with paisley the minute Ashley handed me the designs. My love was deepened once I saw the beautiful work that Ellen from Whimsical Mod Parties did in styling her daughters Madeleine's Dol Celebration. So what is a Dol Celebration? In Ellen's words: "It's a Korean tradition that celebrates the first birthday. It is a big milestone (long ago many babies didn't make it to their first { Read More! }

There are so many crafty and creative mommas around the net, and I'm really happy to have "met" this one in particular. Paula at JC's Loft taught herself a new graphics program (no little feat) just so she could design her son's party just the way she wanted it, and then came up with all this fabulousness for the event! I guess I should also mention that this pool party was thrown at an indoor { Read More! }

One of my favorite customers, Miss Maggie M., is a kindred southern spirit. She has a deep love for her family and friends, and that flair all southern women seem to be innately born with. I had the privilege of working with her to customize the frog prince set so she could throw a 1st birthday party for her precious little man! She is one dedicated momma and I was simply amazed at what she came { Read More! }

This Fairy Tale first birthday was thrown by Sweet Pea Soirees in the DC Metro area for her daughter Gracyn. Everything about this party is whimsical--nothing is matchy matchy, but everything works together so well! Each little guest was given either fairy wings or dragon duds as they came into the party, and spent the afternoon enjoying a puppet show and some neat treats. Frog Prince Paperie was { Read More! }

Right now, I am working on this darling ready-to-use set of party decorations for a customer and dear friend. Their littlest and last tot, Zoe, is turning one (already!!) next month and mom wants to make it extra special. The family's complete and total love for the beach had to be part of the theme as they are throwing the party at their family beach house. So far, the plans include giant { Read More! }
