Paris Party

Well, we didn't actually have a party IN Paris but we did have a birthday party for Paris.  Remember the all white party I did here?  Well, here sister, Paris, recently had a birthday so we decided to do a party for her. I can't take credit for most of the elements of this party.  I thought of a few ideas and helped pull everything together, but their stepmom, Ashley, was the brains behind the operation.  Paris' favorite color right now just so happens to be yellow so that gave us a great jumping off point.  

So onto the fun part, the pictures...

First, we have one of our favorite guests, Scarlett.  She is always dressed appropriately for parties and plans her wardrobe around the color scheme of the event.


if you remember, she wore this adorable little white frock for the previous party we threw...


The centerpiece for the table was a wooden "Paris" sign that Ashley spraypainted white to match the decor.  And check out those adorable cake pops!  They were hit for sure.  She used donut holes instead of cake (so much easier and just as good) and the "faces" came from Hobby Lobby.


and since my cake was such a hit for my sister's birthday I decided to make one for this party too, in the birthday girl's favorite color of course.  By the way, I promise a tutorial on this cake is coming soon...








Don't you love the tablecloth?  It's actually a sheet (washed of course) from a thrift store




Just for fun I decided to make the inside of the cake three shades of yellow, gradually getting darker as you go up


this picture shows the color best


Overall we had a grand 'ol time but I think we are about partied out.  We both agreed we might wait a few years before we do parties like this again.  So glad tomorrow's Friday!!
