I used a white cloth shower curtain I got from Marshalls as my backdrop. I made the banner out of pages of a book from the dollar store. The font is called Rage and I think I downloaded it for free. All I did was tape the pages to a regular piece of paper and run it through my printer to print the letters on the page. I hole punched the top and hung it with twine. When it wasn't blowing crazy in the wind, I loved how cute it looked!
Don't you love these beautiful cake stands?? I borrowed them from my mom. She bought them from Real Deals for my sister's wedding and I think I've seen them at every bridal shower, baby shower, and any kind of fancy party since. They are so timeless.
I wanted to incorporate berries somehow into the dessert because they are Lucy's absolute FAVORITE thing in the world. We made chocolate trifles with brownie and cool whip/vanilla pudding (recipe at the bottom of post) layers with raspberries, blueberries, and strawberries on top. We put them in clear plastic cups. They were so good, I wanted to eat them all!
We also had cute sugar cookies. I found the cutest cookie cutter shapes at a little store downtown. I used a shoe, a crown, a dress, and a teapot.
It was a simple party but I love how it turned out. And my Princess seemed happy too. :)
Here's the Cool Whip/Pudding mixture recipe for the trifles if you want it! Add brownies and berries and it is so delicious!
Cool Whip/Pudding Mixture
1 small box Vanilla Pudding
1 1/2 cups milk
and then fold in 6 oz of cool whip.
This is SO adorable Emmie! Great job! xoxo
