Living CreatiVee

Here is a small Popeye themed get together that I planned for my boyfriend's birthday last month. It landed on 4th of July weekend so we worked with those colors. I had no luck finding any Popeye party decorations so I had to make them myself... at least a few.  I stayed with nautical colors to go with the sailor theme as well as 4th of July (Red, White, Blue, Yellow). This was my first time making a circle cut out banner. I love the way it turned out. Works well with masculine themed banners and just this theme in general. I cut out a bunch of Popeye and Brutus illustrations and pasted them on the walls and on citronella candles outside to help keep the bugs away.   He wanted me to make him a cake so I did. Not a big cake but I made my own little cake topper for it.  Popeye punching Brutus in the face... hilarious.  I like it so much I used it to make a birthday greeting card.  Contact me for any custom party decorations, invitation

My adorable niece turned 12 this summer and she really wanted to celebrate with a Bunny themed birthday party. It was difficult at first to find anything that would go with the theme she wanted but we did what we do best and GOT CREATIVE! We stuck with  pastel colors and poka dots for the most part adding a little bits of bunnies where we could.  The banner we decided to make was pretty simple with pastel colors and the simple sentiment of Happy Birthday Natalie! We added a Poka dot lantern to the ceiling (We wanted more but, it was the only one we could find at Michael's). We added poka dot pastel balloons and one Mylar Pink heart shaped poka dot balloon to each side. We decorated the clear glass jars with cute ribbon and pom poms. Pom poms are always fun. Then we just labeled them with what was inside. Popcorn, Bunny droppings, bunny tails ...you know, the norm ;)    The beautiful cake in the center is made by Karen from   Cake Moments .
