A pink. princess. party. That’s right. I’m going to be honest here. I almost groaned out loud. I was so hoping for circus. non-pink. popcorn and bright colors. loud and fun! But it’s not my party. It’s HER party. I put on my biggest smile and told my little girl that she would have herself a very pink, very princess party. And by the next day, I was totally on board with this most royal of celebrations.
With Gracie’s birthday coming so close after Christmas, there is little time to pull the party details together. Luckily, my kids took me over to their friends’ house last week so I could have a crafting play date with their mom. She sews, she makes bows, and what’s even better than that? She does a little modeling magic with clay. We made princess-themed clay centers AND THEN, we made bows for them to rest on. Well, she made the clay and the bows and I copied. It was lots of good fun and now I have adorable little hairbows for party favors!
Want Christene to make some clay magic for your bows? Go see the gazillion different options she offers in her shop. Go here!
And just look at that frog! Isn’t he the cutest thing? I’d kiss him for sure.

This cracked me up because I also have a little girl birthday coming up (her 4th) and she has requested a pink princess party! Beautiful bows – I picked up some princess wands filled with candy on clearance after christmas for favors. My three kids were born within a month so we have a lot of birthday partying to do (including a first birthday)! Love your blog!
