president party

      Comment  




I've always loved parties that celebrate a child's unique interests. Check out this birthday party for a boy who wanted a 'presidents-themed' birthday party. Indigo Bunting always knocks it out of the park!

news : parents magazine + instagram

      Comment  

I was thrilled that Parents magazine included my son's messy birthday party in their September issue. Go check it out if you haven't already! They've also got some great suggestions from chefs as to what to pack for school lunches...I've torn out the story and put it in my kitchen for inspiration.

In other news, my new favorite thing is instagram (user name: sarahicksmalone). I was just beginning to wean myself a bit off of Facebook and then this comes along. Darn! I'm hooked.

pirate -ish party

      Comment  


I can't read a lick of this Swedish (?) blog...but luckily these awesome images don't need any translation. Except, of course- that cake. Not sure what's going on there but I'm kind of loving it. Especially since I'm looking for inspiration for my daughter's party...she has requested a 'happy black dragon' birthday party. Wish me luck! More of the pirate-ish party here.

nautical party

Awesome nautical/boat party inspiration by diaper style memoirs! She claims she spent under $20 on all of the decorations- proof that a chic party can be had for a bargain.

Brilliant! I know you'll love this Princess and the Pea party as much as I do...from the winding road.

One color scheme that's tough to pull off any other time than Christmas: red + green. So I loved to see this fresh take on a 'ladybug' party without a hint of the holidays! The bright polka dots, the fresh green grass, and all of the graphic elements make for a stunning party. You'll want to swing over to WH Hostess for all the details!

reader question of the week #2

      Comment  

"I was wondering if you or your readers have any ideas for a cow-themed rather than farm-themed birthday party for girls and boys? My daughter will be turning 2 and is obsessed with cows, so I wanted to incorporate them as much as possible into the the theme. Thanks! -Susanne"

reader question of the week #1

      Comment  

"My son, Oliver, is turning 2 on July 2nd. My little man LOVES sushi so we are throwing him a sushi themed second birthday party at a local Sushi restaurant. My question is what ideas do others have to make this party complete? What would you do for favors? Decor? Treat bags or favors? Invitations? Thank you! -Christine"

shim + sons

      Comment  



Well, it has been a crapper of a day, so I need a little party awesome-ness to cheer me up! Just what the doctor ordered: the latest gem from Shim + Sons. Mom Sally took a tad of lizard, and lot of white, black and green to make a memorable party for her son's 7th. Her cute thought bubble (which reminded me of MikoDesign's talk bubble) was also a hit. View more of this clever party right here.

wizard of oz

      Comment  


So many adorable ideas to steal from Claudia's Wizard of Oz party for her daughter's 5th birthday. I'm loving the red 'sequined' cookie shoes on the yellow brick road, and the rainbow assortment of jelly beans accompanying the scarecrow. Too cute!
