Party Recap

My youngest daughter just turned two, and since her nickname (Tykki-dyw) means "butterfly" in Cornish, I couldn't resist a butterfly theme. I was inspired by the Dab of Jazz fabric line with its sunny yellows and raspberry pinks. More information about the party and tutorials on my blog, linked in my profile.

    OMG!!! You did a marvelous job with this party! May I ask where you got all the stuff to make it happen. We are having a heck of a time finding butterfly anything at our local Michaels, Hobby Lobby or Garden Ridge. Please e-mail me! Our daughters party in on the 28th.

    With two through seven year olds, it's very simple. No rules, no counting--just have fun batting the balloon back and forth.
