Sunshine 1st Birthday Party

Lindi Haws is quite clever. She created this sweet yellow and cream "sunshine" themed first year birthday party for her little girl Ella. She even had a playlist of sunshine songs. Lindi describes the party,



"COLORS: an array of yellows and cream



SETTING: my backyard patio



DECORATIONS: guests were welcomed with a "come around back" sign, my rustic fence was surrounded with yellow bunting (made from vintage sheets), around the yard large dowels were painted and draped with fabric and "Ellason is 1" signs, glass jars were hung from the trees filled with yellow daisies and lemon drops, flowers were stapled to the fence to serve as table backdrop and sun garland hung from the fence as well!



I designed all the printable party materials (http://www.etsy.com/shop/lovetheday)"

















 FAVORS: ribbon, sunshine wands with a "thanks for shining with us" label
