birdie’s birthday party redux

toddler girl's bird theme birthday party decor and favors

Pictures? You wanted to see pictures right? Good, cuz I got pictures!

If you look back at last week’s post of inspirations, I think you’ll see how the colors, the tissue balls, and the cake relate to the images I was oggling. The gorgeous single-pointed pennant banners are from hip hooray, while the double-pointed banners were re-used from last year’s birthday party (handmade by moi). We also featured a delicious taco bar – because that is her all-time favorite food (and yes, she really does ask for them at 7:30 in the morning).

I gathered up some tins and little trinkets to make fascination boxes for the kidlets, a la Think-ets. These favors should keep you occupied at your next restaurant visit, doctor’s office, etc. Each box of Birdie’s Shiny Bits & Bobs included a knit finger puppet, a couple of plastic farm animals, a magnifying glass, and some temporary tattoos. But let me tell you, there are about a dozen more things I wanted to include! (I’m saving those for next year).

And of course, here’s a couple extra shots of the kiddos, because how could you not include them? Birdie loved her cake so much we caught her licking the cake server spatula later (non-serated, no harm done!). The boys loved the party hats – would you like me to post a tutorial on those hats? I learned a thing or two as I made them!

The word that comes to mind is “cheerful”… and I love those pics with the funny glasses :)

Thanks Esther – I had great fun with that cake, even if it was decorated very very late the night before. I was sad when it was all gone – I’d hardly seen it!

hehe, I think that was the only moment I saw him with a serious face all afternoon!
It’s funny that you want my camera, I’m always wanting someone else’s!

Thanks Jo – that’s the kind vibe I love, so I’m glad it turned out looking that way too.

Ummm… Brilliant.

Can I share it on Modern Kiddo? You know I’m already head over heels for the Bird, and can’t get enough photos of her on Modern Kiddo!
