Our twin girls turned 1 year old just after Christmas. I prepared early...I wanted to have a cute birthday party and I wanted to enjoy our first holidays with them also. I decided on a cupcake theme. I planned on making cupcakes for their party and slightly larger cupcakes for them to eat...nothing fancy but something a little fun. I picked out some paint swatches at my local store to keep my color theme in check and also to make birthday banners out of. I found cupcake wrapping paper, matching cupcake liners, balloons, a tiered dessert tray craft for cupcakes, iron-on cupcakes for a birthday shirt and even little cupcake plates. Yep I went with it and it came together pretty nicely (I think). Here are some pictures of the event. I will be sharing links and tutorials on how everything came together throughout this month (I hope...that's the plan).
