So, I was not planning an elaborate 1st birthday party at all. Just family and few friends for a BBQ at the at a Conservation Area 2 minutes from our house. Then I started looking at Pinterest... Here are the birthday details!
INVITE
ETSY DOWNLOAD
We used the downloads for decorations including the cupcake picks (which were attached to toothpicks with washi tape) as well as the bottle covers. Not shown here was a sign with the punch saying "Wet Your Whiskers".
We made favours using the favour download. We scooped turquoise jelly beans and candy lime slices into bags and stapled the downloaded favour tags onto each bag.
We also attached the "Thanks!" tags onto the favours for the kids by hole-punching the tag and using a sheer ribbon to attach them onto squirter toys and bubble wands. I put the kid's names on each one to assure everyone got one before leaving.
Inspiration:
Here is our version. We accordion folded each small dessert-sized napkin then attached it to the fork with a ribbon and a double-sided adhesive.
MUSTACHE ONESIE
Inspiration:
My mom made this adorable onesie for E and we paired it with his grey chevron BabyLegs for his birthday photoshoot.
BALL PIT
Inspiration:
I ordered 200 ball pit balls from amazon.ca and used an inflatable pool, added in a couple of bigger balls too :)
PHOTO DISPLAY
Inspiration:
I was really hoping to turn a picnic table on its' end and do the photo collage posted above. Ran out of time and instead posted the photos on the 4 sides of the main post of the picnic pavilion.
OH WHAT A YEAR
Inspiration:
HIGH CHAIR DECORATION
Inspiration:
My mom and I cut out lengths of ribbon and pinned them to a slim grey ribbon then sewed across the grey ribbon to hold everything together.
