Hi Moms & Dads!

My niece is ABOUT to turn one and we are SO excited! This is going to be HUGE! and we are {little by little} getting ready for her Minnie Mouse bash. We are doing a lot by hand and some I have done on my computer. Which, although not my tool of choice, I think some of the things we made came out REALLY cute.

Below are the images of what I created, and here is another FREEBIE that will be loved by anyone obsessed by the oh so adorable Minnie Mouse and her lovely polka-dot bow. Here are some Free Food Label Tents to print and get ideas.Also, I have included a beautiful little printable for your candy station! I hope you love these Minnie Mouse inspired printables.

Freebie Friday

Frozen Party Printables

Good morning readers!

We threw a party recently for my niece that was Frozen themed, and I thought, how cute is this? A Frozen party in the summer! Olaf, of course, approved. Here are some pictures for you to grab any ideas from. This was a collaboration with VIP FD&E and Sweets by Sonia. They are always such a pleasure to work with!

And, if you have a little daughter you know, very well, the FROZEN obsession. Well here is a little freebie for those of you that are planning to have a Frozen themed party this summer.

In this pack there are Food Tents, & Ziploc Bag Tags. Here's what you're going to need:

For these Food Tents, we used marshmallows, and chocolate kisses. We put them each in their own platter with the food tent printed on Cardstock, folded in half, in front. You can get the editable version here. The font I used here is called "Aspire." You will need to download it first into your PC, Notebook, or Laptop. You can find it by "googling" the font name, but there's a great version here. Have never downloaded a font? You can find the How-To here. 

We also had Olaf Noses {Carrots} and these awesome Ziploc bag tags.

We attached the Ziploc Bag Tags to, you guessed it, Ziploc Bags and then put these in their goodie bags. In each Ziploc Bag, there were 3 marshmallows, two pretzel sticks, some brown M&Ms, and a baby carrot. The guests {Baby L's little friends}, chose to either build their snowman or just eat the pieces. It was SO cute and tons of fun for the little ones. 

I hope you enjoy, and remember to share any of your hits or misses on the comments below. 

Enjoy!

Tissue Paper Garland

These little garlands are all the rage at the kid's parties, and some of us have spent so much of our time finding the right ones with the right colors. Here is where all the searching stops! Although they will be available on my store soon, you don't need to purchase them from anyone after this quick step by step.

First things first, what will you need? Well you need to determine how many tassles you want to make and what colors? In this case, we made 6 for the studio {2 pink, 2 black, & 2 white}. You are going to need a sheet of tissue paper for each. These sheets are Spritz brand and they are 16 1/2" x 24" {41.9 cm x 60.9 cm}. Spritz is available in the party section of any Target. You are also going to need string, scissors, and I love any opportunity to use Washi Tape, and this is one of those very opportunities.

You need to separate the tissue paper into individual pieces. You will then cut it down the middle {vertically} and then layer the two pieces, fold in half one way and then the other way.

Do you remember making fans in elementary out of paper? Well that same back and forth fold that you used then, you will use now. As seen below.

Then you are going to need to cut slits into your little folded tissue paper. I cut along the folds and then again in the middle. Keeping it folded, so that I don't need to cut so many individual slits. Each slit, leaving about 1 1/2" from the top of the paper. {Tip: For this step you need some really strong, sharp, new, good scissors.}

Then, it is very important that you separate {carefully} the strips you just cut. Be very careful. You want to completely separate them, and open up your tissue paper, like below.

You are now going to refold it. This step is important because it will give your tassel volume. {If only our hair were this easy, lol} Remember that back and forth fold we did earlier? Well do that again, with this larger piece of tissue paper. So that you get something like this below.

Then you are going to fold it in half over your string and wrap Washi Tape around it.

This is important so that wherever you place your tassel you can move it later! See?

Let me know how this works for you? I tries to simplify as much as possible, but if you are still having some trouble, you can contact me about purchasing a custom one. Thanks!
