Spring Birthday

Bunnies greeted guests for Jackson's Spring themed 1st birthday party

A Jackson tree at the entrance table

I told my husband that this paper rosette backdrop was the stupidest idea I'd ever had.  All it is is a bunch of fans, how hard could it be. But it just eats up your hours. So after I invested weeks making 10, I couldn't stop there. I had to finish at 46. The last week, my family kept telling me to give up. Instead, I made them form an assembly line around my kitchen island, folding, taping, folding, taping, cursing. Nobody better tell me it was pretty or else I might have another stupid idea. And guess what...everyone told me it was pretty. 

These colorful vases are my mother's touch. A modern take on the traditional Korean Dohl table. 

These are the first cake toppers I'd ever bought. They are from etsy shop Star House. The cake looked so bare without these little guys, they were definitely a detail worth including. The two chickies represent little J and N, cousins and BFFs, born 2 weeks apart. 

And of course I was crazed setting up, so I didn't think to push the tree all the way down. It is a levitating, magical tree. 

Their cute little behinds. 

Centerpieces to take home for the person at the table with the birthday closest to J's. And each couple gets a cute little succulent bird as a memento.
