Hello Dollies by Lydia~ Birthday Party Ideas for Gifts, Favors, Decorations

Hello! I have been away from my blog for a bit because I have focused a little more attention on opening a new shop! It is called HELLO DOLLIES BY LYDIA and it is on Etsy. You may have to type the name in all pushed together to make it pop up on Etsy. I love cute gifts and party favors- along with cute party decor…and so I started painting these sweet little wooden dolls (it really happened quite by accident). I love doing these, and wanted to share them with you!

I love these little girls for Easter. The details on their headbands are some of my favorite details!

You can visit my shop here! I hope to link my shop through my website soon- I just have to find the right person to help me connect it all! 🙂

I would love to hear your ideas on how you would use these at parties or as gifts or decorations! Let me know if you have other great ideas that would look cute in peg doll form!

Thanks so much,

Lydia xo

Thank you to Bird’s Party and Bloom Designs Online for letting me share at their linky parties!

CAMILLE’S FIESTA ~ MEXICAN THEME BIRTHDAY PARTY IDEAS

Celebrating your birthday with a Mexican Fiesta is a sure way to have a great time! My daughter and several of her friends had a ball with all of the bright colors and (hopefully) vivid memories of a beautiful party day full of fun! Planning all of the party ideas and details was loads of fun- although we don’t claim to have everything authentically perfect- this is our take on a party that combines Mexican birthday party ideas with a young girl’s likes and wishes! For instance, we know hedgehogs don’t hail from Mexico- but when she fell in love with a festive-looking hedgehog at a local shop, we decided the hedgehog would make a perfectly fun party favor! So read on and enjoy- and hopefully you will find an idea or two that you can use for a Mexican-themed party or even a Cinco de Mayo celebration, too- and inspiration to incorporate ideas that make your party perfectly-suited for the birthday child!

LILLY PULITZER CAKE DECORATING FLAMINGO BIRTHDAY PARTY IDEAS

There is nothing like the bright colors and happy prints of Lilly Pulitzer to make every day feel like a party! For my daughter’s 12th birthday party, she wanted to decorate cakes~ Lilly-style! So, in order to decide how to mesh the two, I kept thinking “if Lilly had a cake shop instead of a juice stand”… I have to admit, this was one fun party to plan! It is a blast to see where ideas go in the hands of a TWEEN! Enjoy and remember, “…being happy never goes out of style!”.
