Party Post: Mickey Mouse

My very creative and talented friend and her sister-in-law put together an adorable Mickey Mouse birthday party for their little boys. Without the party there would have been no need for the cake or the cupcakes.

Everything matched so perfectly.

Take a look at all the cute details they put together for this party; most of which were handmade!

Homemade Pinata!

Not only did my friend make a pinata cuter than anything I've ever seen in the store, she also made matching treat bags for each of the kids to put their pinata candy in. Great idea and very cute.

Each child got their own treat bag to stuff with pinata candy!

A pinata is a great activity for a children's birthday party, but so are party games. My friend did a twist on the classic "pin the tail on the donkey" with a "put Mickey together" game. It was darling.

Each child was handed a different piece of Mickey and then blindfolded and had to put their piece up on the wall.

My friend's sister-in-law made the screen printed window decal and the matching screen printed shirts for the birthday boys (the number on the front was how old they turned). There was also something on the back of the shirts, but I didn't get a picture of the back and I can't remember what it was, but I remember it was cute.

I love the idea of a special shirt/outfit for the birthday child.

My friend's sister-in-law also made super cute Oreo Mickey Mouse treats, but I couldn't find a good picture of them in the shots I took at the party :( You can kind of see them in the first picture of this post on the left side of the table.

This was too cute not to share.

Yum!

Adorable!

Although I will note that the Mint Patty ear was not as popular as the frosting and cupcake. And apparently there was plenty of frosting on the cake!

These ladies did such a great job on this party theme. I hope you enjoy the pictures and ideas as much as I did!

Party Post: Adorable Ladybugs

For my very first party post, I have a fabulous party to share with you!

Saturday was my friend Tiffany’s little girl’s 1st birthday party. She went all out; it was amazing how much time and love she put into every single detail to make this party perfect and special for her daughter.

Take a look, she did a wonderful job!

Invitations

As you can see, she even made return address labels on the envelope to match the invitation.

Silverware

So cute!
Favors

Everyone could take home a little ladybug.

Balloons

Balloons always make a party more festive.

Banner

So fun!

I didn’t get a picture of the food table, but she made everything herself, including Pioneer Woman’s Jalapeño Poppers (they were gone in a flash)! Tiffany also loves Pioneer Woman…it’s why we’re friends…not really, but it helps :)

Remember my grass cupcakes? Well, my talented friend made ladybug tags to match the rest of the party décor.

Right before the party started I added in the ladybug picks and stuck on some of my pink royal icing flowers. Aren’t they cute?

If you thought the cupcake was cute, wait until you see the cakes Tiffany made. Adorable!

Almost done.

Done and beautiful!

The little ladybug for the birthday girl. Super Adorable!
A big ladybug cake and a little ladybug cake just for the birthday girl. My friend did both of these cakes herself (and she’s never taken a decorating class)…like I said she’s pretty impressive.
Here are the ladybugs in the grass...aka the cakes surrounded by the cupcakes.

What a wonderful party for my first party post. Thanks Tiff!
