Isabella's FIRST Birthday Party!

After a pretty smooth move Friday, we couldn't wait to celebrate Isabella's first birthday on Saturday! We woke up and started preparing for the day... I had already hung her banner a few days before and centered it! I bought all of the decorations for her party before we started working on the house, which was a HUGE relief to have out of the way. I started unpacking everything one- by - one. Placed the pink table cloth, centered the cake stand, placed the pictures I had prepared, etc!

Side note- - I love pictures and picture frames, so I knew I wanted to display a couple of pictures from her smash cake session a couple weeks before. I wanted white, vintage inspired frames, but the ones I was finding were too expensive. So, I was at Walmart for some odds and ends, and decided to browse the picture frames. They had a number of silver frames with different designs to choose from. From there, I bought Krylons white spray paint with primer. Went home, spray painted the frames, about three even coats, let dry and roughed the edges with a low grain sandpaper. Exactly the look I was looking for :)

The adorable ruffle cakes, themselves, made for a beautiful center piece! "Cakes by Bess" created a large strawberry ruffle cake and matching smash cake, as well as, two dozen of delectable cupcakes! Please be sure to click on the link above to visit her facebook page and place an order for your next event!

I will feature a couple of tutorials for some of the decor I made, later this week!
