Birthday Party Part 2

Let me break down Clayton's birthday party.

Invitations:



Photographed & Designed by Wendy Larson of Stem&Leaf
Envelopes:Paper Presentation/Tickets: Etsy/Envelope Liner paper: Michaels

*We printed these out at Office Depot & then mounted them onto white cardstock to make them thick.  I bought the striped paper on sale at Michaels & traced then cut to make envelope liners.  The enveloped were actually left-over from our wedding & the twine was borrowed from Wendy.*

Food table:

Dessert Bar

Circus peanuts, cake balls, cotton candy, licorice, cupcakes, suckers, animal crackers, taffy, gumballs &  candy sticks.

 Drink Station
  Straws: DKDelektables /Water Bottle Labels: Hostess with the Mostess blog/Bucket: Walmart
*I printed off the labels on normal paper, then trimmed them down horizontally & covered right onto the water bottle with packing tape.*
Present table with month-by-month photos, framed pictures from his b-day shoot & homemade kettle corn in popcorn bags from DKDeleKtables



(bags: DKDeleKtables/Washi Tape: Etsy)

 I cannot thank my family and friends enough who helped make this party amazing.  Especially Wendy for her talents & delicious pretzels, & my husband for dealing with me!
& I have to compliment the ladies of DKDeleKtables  where I purchased, favor bags, straws, cupcake liners, popcorn bags & cupcake toppings from.  I highly recommend them for your next party! & no, I was not paid to say that!

I had so much fun planning this party, & can't wait until the next one!

  1. Well gee, thanks for giving me so much credit! You definitely did all the hard work... and I just realized I never bought you more flour for those pretzels!! CRAP.
    I'm just going to comment on all of your posts in this one comment. Your table is the bomb, I still haven't seen it in person! What the heck.
    And lastly Clayton is adorable, as always.
