For the Lego party shoot , I had no time to bake a Lego head cake (as I originally wanted ..), so printables came to the rescue once again. I think the bunting idea turned out super cute, which just shows that sometimes less really is more! ;)
Lego bricks and building blocks rule our roost. My son literally has boxes of the stuff, and so for our Lego Inspired Party week , I decided it would be cool to make use of some of them as place-card holders. At first, I thought it would require some drilling, but it turns out it was even simpler! Check out the how-to below.
My son is obsessed with Lego. It's what he asks for every birthday. So when I heard the movie was coming out this year (movie release in most countries February 7th), I couldn't pass the chance to style a little something to celebrate! So this week, we're taking a breather from all things Valentine, and have loads of fabulous Lego inspired party ideas and tutorials to share on the blog. Starting today, with a DIY Lego Inspired Party Pinata + a fun blog hop with some awesome party bloggers!
I have 4 freebie Valentine's Day card templates coming your way tomorrow (yes, you can do a happy dance *wink*), so today I thought it cool to share a cute DIY idea using one of the cards. It's kinda like an edible gift and card in one . Now, that's my kind of craft! ;) And it's so easy, even the kids can help.
Did you know you can make just about anything your little heart desires, using party printables ? Yep! Take a look at this glittered (!!) lip-shaped hair clip I made for my daughter. Don't you just love it? I also made a grown-up version for me. Because I'm worth it ;) It would be so cute as part of a Valentine's party frock, or a cute fashion accessory to give to your BFFs . Plus, the fact it's super easy to make and quick too, would make a great non-candy party favor ! What's not to ♥?! Full DIY tutorial below.
My love affair with candles started when I was 14. We had to make crafty thing to sell at the school Christmas bazaar, and a candle-making workshop was where it all kicked off. Since then, I try to make my own if I can, like this one here and here . But making candles from scratch is not always possible..so I cheat a little by embellishing the candle holder itself. With a little imagination, anyone can create really amazing bespoke candles. And no, you do not need to be a seasoned crafter either! ;) These candles would be perfect for cozy dinner party tables or winter weddings!
January is a tad gloomy in the northern hemisphere. But these easy and crafty DIY candle ideas will help you bring a little light and warmth to your surroundings this season - They're all perfect for brightening up your interiors, but would also look great as table centerpieces and to add ambiance to your winter parties!
In-keeping with yesterday's cute as button theme, I'm sharing how to make these super adorable cotton reel place-holder cards . They'd make fun photo holders too, don't you think? I used them for the Paris craft show (see on Instagram here) last week, but you could totally change the thread to suit your occasion. I'm thinking raffia instead of the wool for Thanksgiving , or twine for a crafty party, or even lace or ribbon for a sewing themed bash or bridal shower!
Hey guys!! So glad to be back! It was a roller-coaster week full of fun and a super crazy work schedule, and despite my utter love for Paris (see on Instagram here) ; I could not wait to get back to my "normal" routine. Plus, I missed my babies too much!!! :) So while I wait to catch up with my humongous inbox, and edit some of the gazillion salon photos to show you, just wanted to share a quick tutorial I made for the cupcakes on display at our stand. These Cute as a Button Cupcakes would be perfect for so many party themes...think baby showers, tea party, sewing or craft party or even Lalaloopsy!
If you're stuck for ideas on easy, last minute favors or little Thanksgiving treats, than this post is for you! I love to think of novel ways to use party printables. And if it involves chocolate in some way, than I'm a happy bird indeed! Here I used the bottle wrapper templates (yes, bottle wrappers) and re-purposed them to make cute Thanksgiving Chocolate Bars. Love it when a plan works out! ;)
I'm all up for handmade party favors, but does not mean I want spend ages making them! Gumball Party Tubes are my salvation when deciding on a quick and easy gift, party favor (or even stocking filler!). Kids will also have fun making these for their friends and family members, so enlist the help of some little hands - it will keep them entertained for a good...30 minutes! ;)

So I got some of my fave party gals to help me come up with some cool ideas on how to use our FREE Thanksgiving printables (limited time only!) in recipes, table styling and party favors.
