Buzzing around the Bee Baby Shower

Want a perfect theme for a Spring Baby? Bees! It can be so much fun. This is what we did: First we fall in love with this fondant bees by Mayen 


After 35 bees you may think this is not a good idea but trust me, it is!

We decided to grow Wheatgrass for the centerpieces - I also tried the juice... no comments!- Whole foods carry the seeds, I bought a pound and was enough for 6 centerpieces.
I know, super cute!

Then I found this beehive, I added some more bees and it was perfect!
Favors thanks to Burt's bees at Target
Note to self: Please make sure to designate a photo-helper in your Baby Shower and/or take the pics yourself, you may be very pregnant and about to pop and have nothing to do with pictures but... 4 to 5 months after the baby delivery when you finally have time to start the photo album ..... you are going regret no to do so!!!!!!  Love,

Baby bird is on her Way!

When litte Francesca was on her way, this lovely idea came up to welcome our baby girl. Birds, branches and nests were the inspiration for that pink-shower day!

Me..want...COOKIE!

It was my little monster's Birthday, and what better theme for a monster than Cookie Monster! I googled and googled and found some ideas... but then I searched on Etsy (I really don't know why I didn't searched there from the beginning ) and found these adorable printable party by Typewink
































It was perfect, so, party on paper I grabbed my favorite scissors and .... CUT!!!
There's always room for Milk and Cookies...                                                       

Now, the cupcakes were super easy, cupcake+ frosting+ Oreo+ M&Ms= Blue heaven for a One year old!

Toothless

We've been talking teeth this week , My little Niece lost her first front tooth yesterday, I found this Tooth fairy certificate.. it's Adorable!





So.. it become my inspiration for tooth cookies! Here's what I did:

I mixed white cake batter and poured in 3 different aluminum foil pans, about 2 cups, it was quicker than waiting for the pan to cool and be clean. Then I used my super cute Tooth Cookie cutter


Then I used Raspberry jam between layers...

And used White chocolate as frosting..



And Ta-Daaaa ....






Super cute Tooth Fairy cookies...
