Questions answered.



I thought I could just do one post to answer some recent questions on Buggie's Rainbow Party.

Ok first here is a list of all the shops I used:
- As you probably know all the labels and tags came from The TomKat Studio's Rainbow collection.
- Her party dress came from Vintage Lucy's
- I purchased the rainbow ring crayons from Lil Boo & Co.
- The buckets I used for the cake stand and holders, came from Ikea {in the outdoor section .99 and they came in all different sizes}. I have a tutorial for these coming soon.
- Clothes pin cake topper came from Wee Cute Treasures {unfortunately she is currently not open}
- Lastly the coloring sheet was created by my uncle. He is a graphic artist {who does animation} so it was quick and easy for him. I might see if he would be open to creating these on the side, you never know!
- Oops almost forgot crown, True Love Found, hehe.

The most asked first, the Oreos.
I just used Wilton's melting candy. Bought it in the colors I needed, dunked them and then sprinkled the tops with matching colored sprinkles. Decadent, yes. Over the top, yes. Heaven in you mouth, YES!

As far as the pom poms I used the standard tissue paper from Party City, not sure on the measurements, but there is 8 sheets per bag. And they take a bit to work on to get the desired fluffiness out of them.

I think that covers it. But if I forgot one please just leave a comment and I will update this post.

Oh and thanks to all of you who went through my family photos! I have BIG decision to make and appreciate all your input, it truly helped. And for those of you who asked the song is You & Me by Frances England. Let's just say I ran to itunes and bought the whole album. My favorite right now is Sleepy Head Mommy, classic!

UPDATE:
- Forgot the rainbow sugar cookies. They came from Lori's Place. Worked out for me
that she was local and I was able to pick up these YUMMO cookies!

ANOTHER UPDATE:
-Rainbow ballon sculptor came from the face painter I had. She asked me if she could make
a pre made sculptor for the party and she showed up with this. She said it
was the first one she made, so darn cute!

Its official I am the Mommy of a 4 year old!



This was my very first dessert table. I was very happy with how it turned out. There are a few things I will do different next time, make sure table cloth is ironed, the table is the right size, and location is better for pictures {the back lighting was not good}.

But I have a feeling I will soon have my chance at another table! Oh and 6 months until I get to work on Bean's party. Do you think it is weird I already know what the theme is going to be?! Think paper and lots of it!














{images are courtesy of my Uncle and friend Jenni, thank you both!}

I would like to give a HUGE thank you to Kim from TomKat Studios for coming up with all the labeling for my table {stay tuned for a giveaway from TomKat!}
If you have any questions about my table please ask away.

I would love to share Buggies party. If you would like to blog about it please feel free, I would just ask that you let me know so that I can give you a proper thanks!

Buggies Birthday Soiree {let the count down begin}



Hey y'all!
We are in party planning mode here.
Buggie's turning 4 this month!

As I plan her party I wanted to share tip, links, stores and other fun things along the way.
We have chosen a "rainbow" themed party {Marina from Penny Lane Designs created my button for these posts!}


While browsing Etsy I stumbled on an adorable store Wee Cute Treasures. I just had to have a rainbow girl made for Buggies party. When I spoke with Carol she was amazing and came up with three options for me to choose from.
This was the one I had her make.

She is UBER cute. And I have to say {which it might be hard to believe} but she is even more darling in person! I can not wait to find the perfect spot on the dessert table for her...
