I have been pinning pictures and ideas on Pinterest for the last few months so I knew what "theme" I wanted for her first birthday....OWLS....in my signature colors of course! One of the best things I did was to hire an amazing photographer to take pictures of the day and all of the details. It was so nice to be able to visit with all of the guests and enjoy the party without a camera around my neck trying to get a bunch of pictures. Best money spent! It was amazing seeing my vision come together and having everything so pretty for my special birthday girl. Get ready for picture overload.
I tried to fill frames up with Sally pictures and place them around the house.
Pictures from the dessert buffet table:
The Drink Station:
I found the little "S" and owl at Hobby Lobby. The bottles are glass Starbucks bottles. I got them from someone off Craigslist, took the labels off and washed them about 10 times with super hot water.
I had all of the guests bring sealed letters to Sally and place them in the suitcase. I plan to present her with the letters when she turns 18.
Door hanger that I found at Hobby Lobby.
Food Table
I collected brightly colored frames...mostly from Hobby Lobby...and filled them with Sally's monthly pictures.
I made Sally a birthday hat :)
We tried the hat...but she wouldn't keep it on.


She was so not interested in the cupcake...boo! I wanted her to smash it all over her face :(
We had favors....chocolate chip cookies from Costco :)
