{Feature Party} It's Wild Out There

I can't say enough wonderful things about this Zebra Party. I read The Birthday Girl religously, and she recently she posted a real party that was created by a mom celebrating her daughter's 4th birthday. I love the look of the stripes throughout the whole party, and the favors are adorable! Head over to the Birthday Girl's site for more pictures and Jen's recount of all the details she put into the party.

DIY Cupcake Stand

I love a great DIY project, and I just stumbled across this project from Lowe's Creative Ideas. I originally saw it featured over at Not Just a Mommy and fell in love with it. In love with everything - the individual holders, the ability to make it any color you need, and change it for any party, and the color scheme of the whole picture- HELLO Spring! This stand also leaves so much room for personalizing it for your party - hanging little streamers from the beams, or surrounding the base with fabric, flowers or ribbons. Have fun, and send us your pics if you try this! Check out Lowe's Creative Website for details on the 'How To' and comments on how to put it together.

Thank you so much to Dawn for featuring this!

{Feature Party} Such a Great Cake!

I came across this baby shower styled in turqoise and orange, featured over at The White Library.
 I love the simplicity of this cake, and how perfectly the colors go together, without screaming, 'it's a baby shower!' And I love the coordinating woven ribbons on the side plates, what a great, simple touch that brings so much to the table!

{Feature} Love for Olivia

I love a party that can incoporate a character based theme without going overboard with the actual character. I just came across these two adorable Olivia parties for little girls.
 Ces, at Lollipops & Paper, put together this fantastic party for her 4-year old daughter. I am so inpsired for my daughter's upcoming birthday because she is in LOVE (i mean, really, IN LOVE) with Olivia.

Head on over to Lollipops & Paper to see all her amazing pictures and ideas!

Take a look at this amazing cake! Covered in marshmellow fondant, this cake looks too good to eat! Nice job Cupkits Edible Creations

How stinkin' cute are these popcorn cupcakes!!! I can't wait to make them for an upcoming party and pass on all the credit to Lollipops and Paper!

Then I happily discovered another Olivia party over at Kara's Party Ideas.  I'm in love with color scheme, the stripes details, and the big tent kids cups - so cute!

Striped paper straws always make a huge impact! And perfectly paired with the polka-dot holder.

What's not to love about this scene- the polka-dot cake, great cupcake wrappers, and the unique big-top goodie stand. Love, love, LOVE!

{Feature} Nuts over the Nutcracker

I just came across this absolutely stunning party over at Kate Landers Events, LLC.  She always puts together an amazing party, and I'm in love with all the little details and decorations used to make this such a special event. The chocolates on silver tiers, the dainty glass plates, the beautiful ribbons, the layered table skirt, and the adorable personalized salad plates!

Head on over to her site to see the rest of the fantastic pictures and inspiration!
