I have this vision of little butterflies flying through the air over the table at the party so I started cutting out butterflies and attaching them to fishing line. Well I figured out that they are not really butterflies but dragonflies and I had planned to cut the butts off of them and decided that Maci is ONE...she doesn't care!! :) I have to say that I LOVE my Cricut...just wish I had more cartridges. This one I am using isn't even mine. (Thanks Marsha). This picture shows about 8 strands of the BUTTerflies.
Here are the spoons/forks. Found this idea online.
I have little pails with the girls' names on and in Maci's I just have pixie sticks with paper flowers attached. I'll divide them all up evenly for the party. Maci doesn't get them all. :) This last picture is air head lollipops inserted into a paper flower. Need to make flowers for the straws yet and since I haven't been able to find grass mats I think I will just cut out a large flower for the mat. That should work. :)

So cute! I love the "butterflies" :)
ReplyDeleteThese are just adorable! Can't wait to see the final party!
ReplyDeleteToo cute! I have a garden themed party coming up and I may have to borrow a few ideas :)
ReplyDeleteCute ideas! My son is having his first birthday this week and we have a circus theme (you commented on the banner I made with the Ultimate Blog party post). Those flower lollipops are adorable!
ReplyDeleteI love everything! The Cricut makes crafting so much easier!
ReplyDeleteHow did you attach the butterflies to the fishing line?
I just made similar lollipop flowers for my daughter's spring tea party - only with foam flowers & tootsie pops...great minds think alike!
