Jake Martin’s 1st Birthday Party

Description

A fun-filled 1st birthday party for my little guy! The color theme came from the super fun invite that I designed for his 1st bday party!

Design Inspiration

The inspiration was the birthday invitation that I designed.  I decided to go with the orange and turquoise, and that set the theme. 

Decorating Style

fun, bright, modern, kid-friendly

Project Details

I had a lot of DIY stuff: 

 - the buckets were $1 target buckets, and my mom covered them with fabric

- i got a lot of things off of etsy

- party favors were cupcake mix in boxes to take home

-get some party paper lanterns and group those on the tables for decorations - very inexpensive 

Favorite Items

the cakepops and lollipop cookies

Advice

pick out your color scheme and go from there.  The colors do not have to be a perfect match, also.
