I”m doing my best to avoid the “theme” birthday as long as I can. I know it is only a matter of time that we will be all about Spiderman and Disney Princesses when it comes to birthday parties, but for now mommy gets to decide on the details. And, I must admit…I really enjoy every minute of it – everything from making the invitations, decorations and even baking the cake.
So recently for my daughter’s 1st birthday I decided to have a cupcake party. While working on the invitations I searched the internet for free cupcake clipart, but all the free stuff I found was pretty lame. Â I decided to search Etsy, and I found this cupcake clipart for $1.00!
The cupcake clipart was my inspiration to do a pink and turquoise theme for the invitation and all of the decorations.
Back when I first started planning and getting ideas for the party I ran across an Etsy shop called Golden that had the most adorable custom bibs and birthday hats. I bookmarked the site planning to come back to order one of her cute little custom 1st birthday bibs, but when I came back to order there was an announcement that all orders would not be shipped until 4-5 weeks out. Yikes! I did not plan that far in advance. I couldn’t find anything else like these adorable bibs, but I thought “I can make this”.  And  I did.  And it turned out great.  And I was surprised!
Really it was pretty easy. I won’t go into step-by-step instructions, but if anyone is interested just send me an email.
The birthday party was a success, and I’m only crying a little bit that my baby girl is now a toddler.
