baby party lovin'

oh how i love party's 

really though they are one of my most favorite things in the whole wide world

especially when i get to decorate them!! i wish i could make decent money being a party planner because i could do it all day everyday. but unfortunately i can't so i'll just count on my friends to keep getting married, and having babies, and birthdays so i have more excuses to decorate more parties. but this baby shower was thrown for a girl i work with, who throughout the years has turn into a dear friend. well she is having a little girl in July and I could not be more excited for her. whats better then a baby? NOTHING right? so with out further ado, here are the pictures of the darling baby shower we threw for her! All decorations were purchased at Zurchers, Hobby Lobby, the wonderful Target & hand made with the help of my wonderfully talented aunt! 

DIY wreath

Little known fact about me is that I love love love to do crafts. I love having a vision of what i want to create and creating it or in my case just finding a lot of things on pinterest and re creating them :) well with mothers day fast approaching i decided that this year i wanted to make mother tucker a mothers day gift instead of just buying her one. So along with the marvelous shake weight that i bought her haha I decided to make her a wreath for the front door. so here's how i did it....all in one grand trip to Hobby Lobby!

Step 1: Find a wreath you love. We got this one at Hobby Lobby for $10.00 &
It's the largest one they have gotta love a GREAT deal! 

 Step 2: Get some flowers! I bought 2 of each kind and ended up with a little left over! Don't be afraid to get creative with your selection!

Step 3: I just took each of the flowers and braided it into the wreath. Surprisingly it worked perfect and has withheld the crazy windstorms of good ol Highland! 

Step 4: Now I forgot to take a picture of the ribbon that I used but it's at Hobby Lobby by the burlap over in the floral section. I made a bow and then with picture wire I braided it into the wreath and tied it in the back. 

Mothers day was a success. Mother Tucker loved her wreath and it looks darling on my parents front door!

Yay for Moms right? Love you mom!
