Party Recap...

This party was a joy to plan and decorate! I dream of having a girl, so I could plan a party like this one. So when Jimena's mom asked me to coordinate and plan her little girl's first birthday, I immediately suggested Little Red Riding Hood, something unique, at least to our usual party themes.
The focal point was, of course, the dessert table, for which we created something different from the traditional a candy bar. We included lots of sweet pastries, all of them local favorites such as "quesitos", cream rolls, strawberry pie, mini donuts, "merengues", cake pops, coconut macaroons, mushroom sugar cookies, and may other mouthwatering desserts. Vanilla cake pops were placed on a custom made moss covered stand surrounded by a tiny white picket fence.
Other items I created were tissue poms poms, dessert labels, cupcake toppers, water bottle labels, striped straw flags, floral centerpieces, signs. I also created custom coloring pages and a beautiful tree made out of cardstock as a centerpiece for the kid's table. The kids had a blast at the coloring station, the bouncy house and finally they enjoyed a puppet show.
