    Decorations

    I put a lot of thought into the atmosphere I wanted to create for my niece's party. I searched various websites and had to piece together my vision. It was well worth the effort and I got some unbelievable deals plus free shipping! The beat part for me was all the deliveries almost on a daily basis for over 3 weeks. It felt like Christmas had come early! The 2nd beat part for me was putting eveythin together and decorating! If you would like to use me as a resource, please feel free to send me an email.
