Hostess with the Mostess®

The entire party looks fantastic, but I am in love with the “toadstools.” I am definitely feeling a fairy party in my daughter’s future!

This is just beautiful, what great ideas!

that is THE cutest hors d’ouevre i have ever seen!!!!

The “toadstools” are just too cute! What a clever idea. Love it!

I’m in love with the toadstools

Who doesn’t love food that is not only tempting to the taste so visually appealing and cute! Great idea!

Absolutely adorable. I just became a fan of your Facebook page too and loved all of the other photographs.

Those little toadstools are so cute.

I have to show my friends with kids the toadstools. They will adore. Imagine serving them at a family brunch.

This is the cutest thing ever! I am totally going to make it for a Christmas party.

this is insanly creative! I love the mushroom “eggs”

Oh my goodness! So cute!! Where did you get those adorable butterflies on the trees???

I love the invitations! Can you tell me who made them or how you did? Thank you

Hi Tracy and Ali -
Sorry I’m just now seeing your questions!

Ali – the butterflies are from an online shop called Heart to Heart. Here’s their URL: http://www.butterflycraze.com

Tracy – I made the invitations myself – so glad you like them! I found the fairy and tree/branch graphics on istockphoto.com and assembled everything in Photoshop.

I’m partnering with a stationery company soon though – so eventually a similar design will be available to order custom-printed online, but it will be a while before they’re available…more to come on that later

When will yoube posting this fairy theme in the party themes section??????

Hi Jamie –
Just saw your question – sorry! I’ll be posting the details in the party section sometime next week. We’ve had a hectic start to the year and I’m on vacation right now, but just as soon as I get back… so before the end of the month

THANK YOU

Hi! I am having a “FAIRY FIRST BIRTHDAY” for my daughter on March 14th. I was inspired the moment I saw this party! If all turns out as planned I will share some pics on the facebook fan page. I wanted those invitations SOOO bad but am not too very familiar with photoshop I found some very cute fairy invites at Papershouts.com and they turned out fabulous!! Thanks for this great party idea!!!

hi dear… your party was amazing!!! where did you get the poster with your daughter”s name on it?
thanks!!

I love the decor of your party. I absolutely loved the glass green tall vase that you decorated with Saxyn letters. Where did you purchase it?
Thanks!

Mariana –
Thank you for the sweet message! I actually custom made the poster myself using illustrations from istockphoto.com (my background is in graphic design).

Lisa – I bought that glass vase a while back at Home Goods for only about $8! They’re a discount shop, so their inventory changes constantly, but they always seem to have similar items…Ross and Marshalls are great places to shop for things like this too!

Jamie –
Sorry the details aren’t up quite yet in the themes section. It’s on the list for this week…fingers crossed. In the meantime, feel free to ask me any specific questions you might have either here or via email.

I Love what you did for this party!!!

My daughters 1st birthday is coming up in a couple of months and plan on a theme of lady bugs, dragon flies and bumble bees.

Have you ever done a theme on ladybugs? Can you help me with any suggestions?? I love the butterflies you used for this party and on purchasing some.

Thank you for being an inspiration.

I am looking for more information on your Enchanted Fairyland Party. I’m thinking of doing this for my daughter’s 1st birthday party and would love to see some of your ideas. I can’t find your posting under the Party themes or on Facebook. Can you help me?

Hi! I love love love this! But my daughter has quite a few boy-friends from preschool. As far as goody bag goes, what should I give the little boys? They’re ages 3-4. Thanks!

Where did you get the placemats?

Christin -
Here’s the direct link to the album on facebook:

Hopefully that works! Let me know if not…

***
Aeilene –
You could do something wizard themed for the boys – like wizard wands, hats or something Harry Potter themed!

*****

Annette – The placemats are actually 12×12″ scrapbook papers! I bought them at a local scrapbook store. Wish I could remember the exact name/company that makes them but I’m blanking on that right now. If I can find them again I’ll let you know! But there are tons of papers available, so hopefully you can find something else that will work either online or at a craft or scrapbook store near you. Michaels and Joann both carry lots of papers

Thanks – I’ll check out the facebook site. Where did you get the hot pink letters you used to spell Saxyn’s name on the green vase?

I got the pink shimmer chipboard letters at Michaels but they should have them at scrapbook stores too – they’re actual purpose is to be scrapbooking embellishments

They’re by a company called Making Memories. Here’s one link I found online but it says there are only 2 sets available at this place right now:

Jen do you know the image/photo number for the branches in the invite? I went on istock but I cant locate it. Thanks!!!!

Hi Grisel –
Here’s the link to the image:

I just used a small portion of the lower left image to create the fairy “bushes” from the tree top portion.

Hope that helps!

Thanks Jenn! Just ordered it working on my little ones first bday party…

Can you up load the posters that you created for this party? So it can be downloaded like the cirque de bebe party package. I would love to use one to play pin the star on the fairy’s wand….thanks!

I’m trying to plan my daughter’s 1st birthday party just after Hallowe’en and since she will be a flower fairy for the night, we wanted to incorporate it into her party. Did you post the how to’s on party themes? I’d love to know where you got your fairy images!

Hi Stephanie –

I haven’t posted the how-to’s on this particular theme yet – so sorry! I purchased the fairy silhouettes used in the poster & digital invite on istockphoto.com though.

I’m actually planning to post downloadable template for the 2 fairy posters tomorrow though, because I’ve had a lot of requests for this lately, so if you want to use these exact designs, please check back tomorrow!

Cheers,
Jennifer
