Kylie's First Birthday Party

My daughter, Kylie, turned one on October 12th. Being that pink and green are my favorite colors...we used them as well as a cupcake theme.

This is a wreath I made out of a grapevine wreath, mesh ribbon, and foam. JJ cut out the cupcake with a nifty foam cutter (who knew they had such a thing?). Although the foam is not going to hold up for a long period of time, it is very enexpensice. If you wanted something that would last for a while, I would recommend using plywood.

I made this cupcake stand out of boxes leftover from our office and wrapping paper, how easy is that?! I couldn't resist the polka-dotted cupcake wrappers. If you notice, Kylie's cake is at the top. It was made from a silicone cupcake mold. I used pink and green wrapping paper from the dollar store, yes the dollar store! I made the stand for right at $2.00! You can't beat that with a stick, and it makes a BIG statement!


Couldn't resist showing ya'll my daughter...needless to say, she enjoyed her cake!


Please come back and visit. Also, I am in the process of starting up a Facebook account and Etsy account. I am hoping I can find some time to make some things to sell!

Fall is in the Mayhaw air...

Our first picture! Things are starting to come together, how exciting... This is my table-scape for Fall 2010. What I did was turn wine glasses upside down and put some small, artificial pumpkins inside. This is a fun idea for any occasion. Check us out later on this week and I should have some pictures uploaded of my daughter Kylie's first birthday party. -Kaylyn
