| my
nessa's birthday kinda snuck up on me, even though i knew her birthday
was coming i was not prepared! which is unlike me, usually the party
theme is picked a good 6 months in advance and the preparation starts
then too. but with being pregnant and moving and then our new little
being late i ended up with 6 days to plan, make, and do! | |

| i tried to use whatever i had in the house from other parties and such. the girls received the la la loopsy doll house for Christmas so that took a big chunk of decorating out and easy! my mom has several sewing machines and her travel vintage singer was at my house with her so i drew a dress and pulled out fabrics i bought in new york 3 years ago and my awesome mom whipped a la la loopsy dress for the birthday girl, and her awesome aunt had bought her the wig on clearance at target after Christmas then the sewing machine became part of the decor. |
 |
| i went to joann fabrics coupons in hand and on my phone, my budget was
50.00 and i spent 53.00 not too far off! everything i did had to be
quick and easy. i think my favorite thing was the neon embroidery hoops i
got and then used fabric from my stash and YARN, and buttons to make
the cute wall decor! |
second favorite would be the yarn tassel banner! i have seen all kinds
of tassel decor for parties the past year and have wanted to try it, but
never had. so when i was staring wide eyed in the middle of the night
at the two giant bundles of yarn i had bought i had a light bulb moment!
then came the yarn tassels and it still looks like i haven't used any
of the yarn, lol!

| the
cake...i wasn't sure what to do, i saw a lot of cakes on pinterest some
amazing and some scary, haha...so it was like 4 hours before the party
and i had been up until 6 am so this is what happened. it turned out
really cute...i got a fondant mold from michaels a few months earlier
with a coupon so i think it was 4 dollars and change. i used meting
chocolates and the mold and ended up with these cute buttons and bows!
perfect for the cake |

 |
| i also got plastic neon lace at joanns along with beads and little
wooden spools all that could be strung onto the lace. the girls loved it
and they turned out cute...we even wrapped yarn around the little
spools. i also got the martha stewart button punch/embosser. if you don't have it you should its so much cuter than i expected! |
 |
| the buttons are the martha stewart paper punch then glue dots onto the sunglasses |
not bad for 6 days to think and 2 days to make and under 100.00!
