Description
Our little Bella Bug turned one and we celebrated ladybug style! A bright and fun party perfectly fit for our little bug!
Design Inspiration
Even before she was born we fondly called our little girl Bella Bug. I thought using her nickname would be the perfect inspirtation for her first birthday party!
Decorating Style
Bright, fun and unique!
Project Details
Everything at my little bug's party was lovingly created by her mommy (me!). I even created the printout graphics for her cupcake picks and wipes container. I enjoyed every minute creating the perfect party for my Bella's first birthday celebration! **only graphic/printout not created by me was the candybar wrappers found on ebay.
Favorite Items
I think my favorite thing would have to be the goodie table. A lot of thought, work and preparation went into creating and executing my vision. I also love the tutus and antenna headbands that were given out to all the little lady guests! They were a big hit with the little ladies!
The flowers on the back of the chairs were made just like the tissue pom poms you hang from the ceiling. I just used fewer layers of tissue, flattened the back out and added the circle for the center of the flower. I hope this helps! Happy crafting! :)
Hello,I hope you get this message. I was wondering how did you make the flowers that you put on back of the chairs. Thank you
erin,
Hi! The oreos were super easy! I started by twisting the oreos apart and then used a lollipop stick to gauge out a channel in the cream. Next I dipped the stick in melted chocolate and place it in the channel I created in the cream then I pressed the oreo back together. Refridgerate the oreos for about half an hour to cure. Next I dipped them in the pink and placed back into the fridge for about 20 minutes. Last I dipped the top half in the black chocolate and piped on the dots using a baggie filled with black chocolate that I snipped a small hole in the corner! I hope these directions help!
I love the oreo’s how did you do them?

I absolutely adore Bella’s party! Such an awesome theme. VERY creative. Looove the little lady bugs. Such a special party for such a special little girl <3
Cara,
Thank you! It’s never too early to start planning! I booked the hall the week my daughter was born! Lol! The sooner you start planning creating the better, I say! Their birthdays roll around before you even know it! :) The antennas were such a fun and easy project, you should definitely give them a try!
Very cute. I am doing a ladybug theme for my little girl’s first birthday too. I’ve started collecting ideas and supplies even though it is 7 months away. I love the antenna headbands. May steal that idea!
IngridCalloway,
Thank you! I really put a lot of thought and hard work into creating this party for my little girl! :)
Your party was really creative and colorful. I like what you did with the sweet treats and incorporated them into your theme and your color scheme.
