Party Recap...
My friend Kristina asked me to design a simple yet stylish birthday party for her soon to be 7 year old daughter Audrey. Since I have three sons and style a lot of boy parties, I thought it would be a refreshing (and fun) challenge to take on!
I wanted to keep the party sweet and girly, without being too grown up. I settled on a butterfly theme with a modern twist.
The main elements included the bold statement of turqoise chevron patterns, purple flowers, and crisp white butterfly silhouettes. I added in some lace and tulle details to soften the mood a bit.
The girls had fun decorating paper butterflies as a craft, eating purple frosted cupcakes and sipping turqoise fruit juice from their glass jars!
