Love love love this party! Hope you don't mind, but I'll be stealing lots of ideas for my puppy's 1st birthday :)
Tracey B says...
Where did you find the pails for holding the eating utensils? They are adorable!
Brooke P says...
Thank you ladies!....Tracey, they were a random one time find at a store called Home Goods, perfect tho huh!?
Melissa N says...
Love Love Love the fabric you used as a table runner...the "that's what little boys are made of" with wagons, frogs, etc... where did you find it, or would you sell it?
Tracey B says...
The frog pails were adorable. I did some research & found them at an online sight. They were 12.99 each though. :( I do wish you still had all of your stuff; I would have gladly bought it from you! :)

I am planning a baby shower for my sister in law. I love the fabric you used. Do you remember where you got it?
Brooke P says...
I initially found the fabric at a little local fabric shop, but it was super expensive, so I looked at the name of it on the side & found and ordered it on-line for like 1/2 the cost...I'll try and find what little I have left to get the name for you girls :)
Tracey B says...
Just curious...what are you planning on your theme for the 3rd birthday? I love your ideas!
Brooke P says...
AW thank you, you are too sweet! My son is currently obsessed with Buzz Lightyear, so all Buzz, emperor zurg & aliens :) It's acutally in a couple weeks, can't wait! :)

Hi Brooke. I was wondering if you could tell me how you made the red wagon smash cake. I am doing a red wagon theme for my son's 1st birthday and love that cake!
We'd love you to leave a comment, but you need to be logged in.
