As you know, I am in the midst of planning Sam’s 3rd birthday party! And phew! It’s A LOT of work!
I am EXCITED though!
I kinda wish the party was this weekend, but then I remember how much more I have to do and toss that thought out!!
2 more weeks and it’s PARTY TIME!
I saw this and decided to make one similar, but switch it up a bit.
I have been loving all the ruffle wreaths and such out there right now, so I went with that.
I basically followed along with the inspiration piece, but I used a TON of tissue paper.
A. TON.
I wanted it to have that soft ruffle-y (that’s a word. Swear it) look.
And I just L-O-V-E how it turned out!
I loved it so much that I made another one to match the theme!
This was a pretty simple project, but it did take some time.
In the end though, I totally think it was worth it!
I can’t wait to display these at the party!
Now the hard part is just going to be where to actually display them!

WOW! Very nice! I have been working on my daughter's birthday stuff this week, too...she turns 9 on Friday. I've made a lot of stuff for her party either during my toddler's naptime or at night when everyone's in bed. I can appreciate your hard work and effort in making this, and it looks terrific! THanks for sharing!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Tonya! That was very sweet!! And I know all about naptime crafting! I have a 6 month old too- so on the weekends I pray they take their naps at the same time so I can get stuff done. lol :)
