LaLa's 1st Birthday Dinner

Well, after my brief stay in the hospital, (some kind of infection in the tummy), I had no time to finish LaLa's birthday party and had to move it a couple of weeks ahead. We decided to take her out to dinner to the Spagetti Warehouse. Here is Little LaLa and Daddy!

She is so photogenic!! Don't you just LOVE her bow!? Of course I made it!

Daddy and LaLa again smiling for the camera

Here's Mr. Tristan and Mr. Avery chowing down on the food!

And of course LaLa loved her cheese ravioli! What doesn't this girl eat!!!

We had to have them sing Happy Birthday for the princess and she just loved it! Can't you tell? LOL!

Baby Shower Diaper Cake By...LaLa Petites!!

Well, I no longer have a camera!! Ugh!! It decided to poop out on me and has joined all my others in camera heaven! LOL. I was lucky enough though to get pictures taken of one of my very first Diaper Cakes. I had two baby showers to attend one weekend and had no idea what to give. Well, I kept seeing all these diaper cakes everywhere and though, "I can do that!" So, I was technically doing two at the same time, and with that being said, I call them BOTH my first. I only have picutes of this one so for though. This one was for my friend Amy who is having baby Jayden really, really soon. Isn't this so lovely!!

 

Such a sham that it has to be taken all apart to be used! I used tissue to wrap each level and then the ruffle around the edge of each layer is ribbon bunched up. I added Amy's baby shower invitation to it because it was WAY too cute not to and the colors matched.

My favorite part of my Diaper Cakes are the custom letter on the side. I used scrap booking paper and mod podged it on and Voila! Aren't they just the cutest couple ever!!?? CONGRATULATIONS on your bundle of joy to come! 

Ruffled T-Shirt Scarf

Isn't this just the cutest!!! Disney over at Ruffles And Stuff has a super easy DIY for this beautiful scarf!!!

More Beanies Before The Cold Is Gone!

So I had to put up the rest of the beanie caps I have made on my LaLa Petites Etsy store. Still have a couple to put up but almost there. I figured I wasn't TOO late since my Etsy store is all over and that it IS still cold in some parts of the world! LOL! I've been seeing these Fabric Flowers everywhere and decided to give it a try by putting them on a few beanies. I think it turned out rather cute!!

I also wanted to liven up the girls Guitar Beanie, so I added a few rhinestones to it! Yeah!

Of course, the girls need a cute and not "plain" skull and crossbones beanie too!!

Remember! All is available in my Etsy shop!! Enjoy!

Alice In Wonderland Birthday Ideas

IT'S GONG TO BE A VERY MERRY

UN-BIRTHDAY!

So I have been planning an Alice In Wonderland themed birthday for Miss Mykaylas's 1st Birthday for quite some time now. (even before the movie was to come out, I have to say! LOL) Anyways, I have found so many ideas!!!! I cannot wait till the birthday but wanted to show just what I had found and how I have decided to change the theme up a bit. It really is going to be a little more "eclectic", if I can, that is. Yeah!!! I can't wait!!!

I got my idea on the Alice In Wonderland theme when I first saw this picture on Etsy. Deborah's store, Champignons is so very eclectic! I love that word! "ECLECTIC" lol. Don't you just love this photo though!?

So, I started checking out more blogs and searching Etsy more and OMG! There is so much out there!

Donna over at Party Wishes did this absolutely gorgeous Mad Hatter Party!! I need to enlist my brother and dad into making something like these croquet stands!! AND the stacked TEACUPS!!

Then there was a photographer who took some wonderful photos of a Tea Party. Jessica Claire did the photos and they are awesome! The photos AND the party. This first one that I found on her site was so cute! It definetely gave me lots of ideas for LaLa's chair!

She also took photos for this party here. I soooooo want that centerpiece!! I wonder  how I can make it!

I was also looking for decorations for the table and these little cuties caught my attention over at Pink Cherry Mama. They are so perfect!!

I've been seeing these cupcake holders around and over at Orange 1 I found these guys...

Of course I will need a hairpiece for myself and Miss LaLa and needed some ideas. I found this headband on Etsy with 3CraftyGirls... It's a zipper in the middle! How UNIQUE!!

I also found this one on Etsy over at MTcoffinz Underground. I do have to say she has some very unique items in her shop!

I'm so ready!!!!
