Loads of kite strings (ribbons), a fresh chevron print, a rustic vibe, divine desserts, and a beautiful baby boy combine to make this party soar with fun!  Jacki, of Blissfully Sweet, made wonderful use of her creative talents as she designed her son’s first birthday party- a small family party that is big on delightful details!  Look at the invitation she made for each guest!

I loved Jacki’s use of ribbons as “kite strings” to decorate- notice how the ric rac resembles the chevron pattern used throughout the party!

Jacki also found these gorgeous paper lanterns to coordinate perfectly!

Jacki did a fantastic job with tying in the pattern and colors in so many subtle ways…

Have a look at the delightful table- rustic and sweet with green, blue, and brown…

I am amazed at these little clouds that float on blue sky!  I think those are so adorable!

I also love the white chocolate bark (with Nerds candy) served in wooden cones with kite and cloud cookies in the background~

And the unique cake that Jacki created~

Jacki also bought a wooden spice rack that she redesigned to hold Persian Fairy Floss in pistachio, vanilla, and chocolate.  She especially liked the cloud look it had to it- and it was the perfect colors!

Jacki also wrapped chocolate bars in coordinating paper and topped with a kite that she cut out…she really thought of everything!

There is a park just behind their home, and so the party guests headed to the park to fly kites and enjoy the day…what a sweet way to celebrate Noah’s first year!

Thank you for sharing your party for your precious son, Jacki!   You are such a talented lady!

See the wonderful cakes and treats that Jacki makes at Blissfully Sweet!

LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE PARTY

What began as a simple gesture to introduce my daughter to a wonderful book series has become a special evening ritual for us- reading Laura Ingalls Wilder’s Little House books!  I must admit, I didn’t realize quite how interesting these books would be to her, but she cannot wait to read all nine in the series.  It was only fitting that her birthday party focus around Little House on the Prairie!  Together, we had a ball planning all of the details of her party that related to the books in some way.  At Camille’s request, we focused on some of her favorite parts of the stories… prairie flowers, covered wagons, tee pees, the colors in the drawings of the books,  and “pretty”…because “Ma” liked things to be pretty!
