Nicole – “My favorite element–homemade candy buttons!
I loved these things when I was a kid.”
I love how she used an already made pinata frame and jazzed it up to go with the look of the party. And you know how much I love garlands…she had the guests walk through this butterfly garland to enter the party!

May 22, 2011 at 2:14 pmThis party is just lovely :) I’ll be having a Ladybug Picnic party for my daughter’s 2nd Birthday in August.
I saw your comment in the PA bloggers group on Bloggy Moms. I’m from Pittsburgh too (well, Beaver County) and I would love to find out if there are any mom blogger meet-ups or conferences in our area. If there isn’t maybe we should start one up! Anyway, I’m following you now…so excited to find a local blogger :)
