Inspiration: Birthday Party

Last week, Michell sent me these photos of her son's wonderful 2nd birthday party to share with you all. This party has lots of fun ideas and tons of inspiration for an owl themed party. Ready?


I am impressed with the creativity of both the parents and awed by the attention to detail. Michelle sewed up some owls and placed them on the swing in the patio (perfect way to greet the guests) and made the banner from the old used books. While, her husband designed the birthday invitations, picked out some special antiques around the house and made quills so the guests could pen birthday wishes in style :)









I love the color palette, the use of birch branches and those paper pom poms. Last but not the least, the cupcakes. How sweet are these owl cupcakes?! They look as if they were made by a bakery but these were made by Michelle herself, from scratch. Amazing, right?
