lollipop centerpiece

Written on January 28th, 2009 by Kim

lollipopcenterpiece_realsimplemagCenterpieces don’t have to be elaborate to be beautiful and fun. Step outside of the norm and create something whimsical like this idea from Real Simple Magazine. I mean what kid wouldn’t be excited about sitting down in front of bunch of brightly colored lollipops.

The buckets you can likely find at any craft store. As for the lollipops, go to a candy shop or even check out a Cracker Barrel restaurant. They have a great assortment of unusual candies and suckers.

This idea would be a great addition to our sweet treats and sweet treat too themes.


no fuss favors

No fuss favorEvery mom stresses about the party favor. I admit that I’ve done some fairly elaborate things, but only when the party was with my very best girlfriends and their children. And some of you even have to suffer through school policies where your child’s entire class has to be invited; that isn’t always economical. Remember, the birthday is about your child, don’t spend your entire budget on the guests.

Take it from me, do what makes you feel comfortable. For instance, this is a very simple, yet attractive favor for a sweet’s birthday party. The hardest part will be spelling all the kid’s names correctly.
