french-inspired party: watercolor invitations

October 13, 2012

I can’t believe that I haven’t shared details of my little Norah’s third birthday party that was in July?!
Time sure does fly by, and things get busy.

I wanted to first share her invitations with you.  I decided to go with a French-inspired theme for the party.  And, since France is full of talented artists, I decided to do watercolor invitations.

I printed black in onto watercolor paper, and used the watercolors to spruce up the invitations.

Be sure to check out the instructions, and full details on how I made the invitations over on my post on the Hellobee blog.

I’ll be sure to share more of the party soon!

diy: party tassel garland

July 30, 2012

my sweet norah’s third birthday was earlier this month, and i had the best time putting together a fun party for her! (more on that soon!)

i found myself scrambling last minute for a fun backdrop for the table, and i was able to come up with some fun tassels made out of gift tissue paper.

it was fairly easy to make, and i was able to add it to the party table in under an hour.

you only need a few supplies, and about an hour of your time!

head on over to see the full step by step tutorial over on my post for hellobee.  click here.

i can’t wait to share with you more on norah’s 3rd birthday party soon!
