Halloween in August

Halloween came early for paperminties last year as we celebrated Alana's birthday in August.  Little Alana L-O-V-E-S all things Halloween and since I am all for unique parties, this party was a treat to plan with Alana's mum! ( Special thanks to Rej for the referral!)

From the party invites, down to the full party package with cut-paper art for the centerpiece sticks and wall decor, paperminties got a fair slice of the cake and boy, was it fun!

Additional story bit: Alana's mum intended to surprise Little Alana with this Halloween-themed party.  It was super gratifying to see Alana smiling from ear to ear when she saw the decorations! 

A shout-out to Alana and family for entrusting this project to us! 

Another shout-out to the Periwinkle and Lace team who did the dessert table!  We enjoyed working with you and admire your work.  Great job!

Here are the Halloween in August party paperminties.

Hope we got a better shot of the dessert table by Periwinkle and Lace!  They did an exquisite job bringing in the Halloween vibe! 

Backlog Posts Teaser!!!

Just like that, six months passed.  Life happened, literally, as we welcomed Baby #2 in August (plus I went back to teaching at a new school).

The blog took a backseat and party paperminties posts were shelved.

With the recent party paperminties inquiries, the nagging urge to post the paperminties-decorated parties surfaced.

Please watch out for the delayed posts as we will post them soon!

Party Paperminties - Cute as a Button Party

This Cute as a Button Party was in early August.  Birthday girl Kristiana turned two and her mommy and big sister thought it best to throw her a button-themed party since she loved fiddling with buttons!  Really clever theme!

Mommy was very hands-on with the preparations.  When I met up with her to discuss the party details, she had already finished decorating brown paper bags with circle cutouts and making paper pinwheels as centerpieces!  It made my work a lot easier.  All I had to do was add buttons to the pinwheels and paper bags, make table confetti and the large wall decor.  As an add-on, I decoupaged paper buttons on a letter K that mommy saved from Kristiana's Baptismal celebration.

Here are some pre-party photos and photos of the party venue on party day!

Brown paper bags made by Kristiana's mommy with the help of her loving Yaya Amy!

Pinwheels by mommy made from scrapbooking paper!

Table confetti - Two-layered paper buttons from cutout circles.  I punched the four holes in the middle with a one-hole ticket puncher!  Labor intensive but results were satisfying.

Decoupaging Letter "K" with the paper buttons.

The finished product!
