4th of July subway art

With 4th of July just around the corner I started bringing all my holiday

decorations up to decorate boldly in red, white and blue,

but I noticed I had a pretty old Subway Art print and thought we needed

to create something to print.

Something a little more festive and updated.

So here you go!

We can't wait for BBQ's, hot dogs, ice cream cones,

flags waving, fireworks and the kiddos running

around in festive colors.

Wizard of Oz themed 3rd Birthday Party

We recently threw a birthday party over the weekend.

It was Wizard of Oz themed

with lots of "over the rainbow" accents.

 We used popcorn boxes and filled them with tortilla chips

for our nacho bar.

Popcorn boxes in all the colors of the rainbow..and more

found here.

 Our nacho bar.

Toppings included:

Nacho cheese, chili, corn and bean salsa,

olives, salsa, green onions, tomatoes, jalapenos and sour cream.

Any kind of "bar" is fun to let people build and creative their own.

And toppings are always fun.

 Help yourself my pretty....

 Lazy susan with nacho toppings.

 Jalapeno shot cups.

For those who like to kick it up a notch.

 No Place Like Home treat bags for the guests.

 The Emerald City Cakepops

were a huge hit.

 Dreams really do come true...

especially with this over the rainbow cake.

 The birthday girl,

our little munchkin

turning 3 in Wizard of Oz style

 Entrance to the backyard.

This pennant was fun, larger than we thought, but very "Dorothy"

found here

 Letting our guests they are not in Kansas anymore.

Gingham and rainbows everywhere.

Sometimes when hosting a party it is hard to come up with what type of food to have.

If you are cooking you have to time things just perfect,

which can be very stressful on the big day.

We think any type of fix your own bar is fun for the kids and adults.

It can range from ice cream bars, to nacho bars and waffle bars.

Your creativity is the limit.

Creative Block

We seriously have had a creative block, therefore we are sorry for the lack of posts. We are definitely going to try and jump back into some fun projects so we can get posting again.

We spent last weekend down in Mesquite and St George soaking up all the sunshine.

Teacher appreciation week

A very quick and easy Teacher Appreciation Week gift.

 Candy filled glass light bulb.

We can't tell our teachers enough,

Thanks for making us bright!

 Include a gift card and you are done.

A fun gift to give and receive.

 We bought our glass light bulbs at Hobby Lobby

and they were also 50% off.

Such a cheap, inexpensive and darling

glass light bulb that is flat on the bottom and top screws off.

Perfect for our little project.
