It is a MAD situation in my kitchen!

I am still slaving away at Mad Hatter party decorations. I am having tons of fun on the projects. I do feel I go a bit overboard sometimes but you are only a cute 4 year old girl once! These photos are a few of the things I am finished or working on.

Upcoming Mad Hatter Tea Party




My Reese's 4th birthday this year is going to be Alice in Wonderland/Mad Hatter Tea Party. Let me tell you that there are ZERO decorations out there for this theme, commercial deco anyways. Everything I have done and am doing is made with love. I could have bought invitations no problem, but I made instead and love the way they came out. The pics are just a few of the things we have going on so far. Party is in November so will post complete party after that. I have tons more in the works but for now here a few snippets- we are having a pseudo photo booth (Reese is holding a prop), my homemade caterpillar (he is FAR from done but you get the idea) and a Mad Hat from a paper plate and scrapbook paper! Can't wait!

Harry Potter Birthday Party














We celebrated our daughter Reese's 3rd birthday with a Harry Potter themed party. I have a love hate relationship with the birthday party process especially since I am a perfectionist and tend to be over the top. I think the party came out fantastic! Most of the decorations were handmade, broomstick treat bags, banners, Reese's t-shirt, favor bags, paper masks, house banners etc. The cauldron with dry ice was my favorite!! We also let the kids decorate their own wizard hats.
