A Cupcake Party - Handmade

Last weekend we went to my niece's first birthday party....cupcake themed! My sister-in-law Jenn did an amazing job and made everything herself.....including 50 cupcakes and tissue pom-poms that I helped hang from the ceiling :)


Homemade cookies:

The banners:


Cookie decorating station:


A "candy" bar:


My niece Sawyer did some damage to her cake:


Isn't she precious? Her mom made her outfit and headband too!


Boo had a blast at the party with all the activities: pinata, coloring station, cookie decorating and playing with her cousin Jordan. Don't they look like they are up to something here?


I had TWO nieces turn one over the weekend. A day apart! I made both these little outfit sets for their gifts:


I silk screened t-shirts using my contact paper method:


Paired with my new favorite cuffed leggings from Target:


Made a few matching knit hair poms (see pom tutorial here):


And wrapped them all together into a cute little matching package:

    Love cupcake parties! We had one for my 1 year old niece last month and my sister did everything herself just like yours. I think parties are more special to mom and dad (and one day to kids) when you do a party from the heart like this one...
    And the leggings- target run in my future!
