Party Ideas: PotteryBarn and PotteryBarn Kids Rocks!

I love PotteryBarn.  They have the best styled magazine shoots and their website rocks.  Did you know that PotteryBarn and PotteryBarn Kids now offer tons of great party tips.  They have free printables, downloadable invitations, gorgeous table design photos, craft ideas, game ideas and more.

PBK has even hired Kim Stoegbauer from The TomKat Studio to style their kids parties. Here are a couple of my favorite styled parties of hers.

Giveaway: Cheese and Olives Please!

My sister threw a Bachelorette Party for a friend in Chicago and before their night out on the town, my Sis had everyone over to her place for wine and appetizers.
She created a cheese and olive spread (bc the Bachelorette LOVES olives).

To add a festive touch to the party I made printable cheese and olive markers.

I'm still asking for the pics of the party {hint hint}.
Hopefully I will get some to share with you.

Backyard Birthday Bash!

 Both of my girls have summer birthdays so we threw them a joint  party over the weekend.  We live in the desert and it's super hot so our theme was a "Backyard Birthday Bash!"

 We had swimming, a slip and slide, a jumpy house, a snow cone machine, an ice cream cake and more... 

The printables gave it a modern Circus/Fair feel.  I used different fonts and colors.  It was fun not to be limited on color. 

We served corn dogs and chips (which went with our Circus feel).

The kids a blast and I did too putting everything together. 

Here are some pics!

The silly string was the biggest hit!

For the ice cream cake!

Water Balloon Toss!

A Happy Face!  All that matters ;)
