More to come!
I have a few more pictures to post and I will try to keep this updated. I've got 2 events coming up that I am working on- a bridal shower and a lectureship... so expect pictures and ideas!!
Ice Cream Party
Location: our house
Date: June 2007
Occasion: just because!
Creators: me
Invitation One:
Invitation Two:
In addition to soft drinks we also had strawberry lemonade and regular lemonade... I don't suggest this for a ice cream party... have you ever had lemonade after eating ice cream?? Maybe kool-aid instead!
The toppings. I wrapped plastic spoons in polka dotted ribbon (hot glued).
Centerpieces- I took plastic pots and spraypainted them white, took styrofoam balls and painted them cream, brown and pink glued 'sprinkles'(little beads on top). Glued them into the stuffed pot took a ice cream scoop stuck it in there and glued a 'icecream' ball into it. Tied a ribbon on and wa-la!
This was really fun and we plan on hosting it here at our new place as well!! Probably in april.

Graduation Party
Location: fellowship hall at Obion Church of Christ
Date: May 2007
Occasion: high school graduation
Creators: Me and the girl's grandmother
Her school colors where red and blue.
Candles and Candle Holders all from Dollar Store. I wrapped the candles with ribbon also from the dollar store.(I hot glued the ribbon...but the easiest way to do it would be to use flat headed pins and simple wrap it under and pin!) Confetti, table clothes and marbles are from walmart about a dollar each as well! We did finger foods and I made crocumbouche, mini fruit pizzas (sugar cookies, spread with sweetened cream cheese and cut fruit- tastes like cheesecake!!)and tortilla pinwheels.
