First Birthday Planning

 I  *know* I'm in the middle of a mini-series here, but I just had to make a little interruption to share with some exciting sneak-previews of Selah's first birthday party!

I promised myself I wouldn't make a big deal of this birthday planning...I'm going to try my best not to get stressed out. There will be no pony rides or balloon animals. Just a sweet, small family and friends get-together to celebrate our little girl's first year!

These invitations were made by my amazingly talented friend, Sara Hinkle. She is a freelance illustrator, mommy extraordinaire, and an awesome undercover foodie-chef. Basically, she's everything rolled into one fabulous person. If you are interested in your own custom illustration, you can contact Sara via e-mail at sarawithoutanhblog@gmail.com or Twitter @sarawithoutan_h

Selah's party is going to be a  'Sweetie-Pie' themed event, with lots of handmade touches from my Etsy friends, and most importantly lots of pie! I'm planning to make pie pops, mini mason jar pies, and big-people pies too. MMMmmmmm.  No cake here ;)

Here are a few special touches I have gathered together for Selah's special day.

 1. Paper straws
 2. Red and aqua Happy Birthday banner - KeriKat Designs
 3. Vintage Tablecloth - Vintage Goodies
 4. Cherry Pie Wreath - Fanciful Felt by Bourdiers
 5. 'P is for Pie' vintage flashcard - More Loose Ends
 6. Felt apple party favors - Mud Pie Kids
 7. 'Sweetie pie' stamped serving spoon - Tiny Matchbox Studio

I'm really excited to share the whole party with you all in a few weeks!



Lots of love,
Lindsey
