Caleb’s Big Top Birthday!

I think I’ve fully recovered from planning Caleb’s 1st birthday party. So I’m ready to share! It really was a circus around here!

What do you get when you spend hours and hours hunting for ideas on the web PLUS many more hours creating and organizing all of those ideas?????

Caleb’s 1st Birthday Big Top Party!

I’m this entire party for A Soft Place To Land’s DIY DAY! Because I think this counts as 10 DIY projects!

*Thanks to these great website for giving me the  inspiration for this party!

    Looks like an awesome party!! Oh, and Caleb is a great name!! We have a Caleb. 🙂
    Thanks so much for stopping by my blog. I love my furniture painted white. It’s so much lighter and brighter. I’m glad to have given you some inspiration to start your own furniture painting project. Have fun!! 🙂

      Mandy, Thanks for your kind comment! Now if I could just come up with a better looking header for my blog then I’d be happy! I did the layout in Photoshop and just found it easier to upload a few files rather than dozens of photos to WordPress. It was much easier!

      Thanks Relynne!

      The font is actually called Circus. I searched for “free circus font” and found it: http://www.fonts4free.net/circus-font.html . I use Photoshop Elements 9 (I think) it only cost about $80.00 and I use it all the time.

      I’m also love to do graphic design so if you’re looking to hire someone to make you invitations, cupcake toppers or other things just let me know.

      Thanks for stopping by!
