My Design Life: Rosalie's 1st Birthday - Story Book Design

This past weekend, I had the opportunity to exercise my party designing skills for Ria at The Evolution of a Woman blog. For those of you who don't know her, she is my boyfriend's sister-in-law and a good friend of mine.  She had a great vision of a vintage storybook birthday party for her daughter's first birthday. What a cute idea, right? And something original I haven't seen before.

She had lots of decoration ideas, but didn't exactly know how to carry out the whole theme. So with the collaboration of DIY decoration ideas (made by Ria and  her close friends, including me), some of my own found decorations, and lots of Ria's server-ware, I helped her design Rosalie's Story Book Birthday in less than a week!

The details put into the design made all the difference. From vintage story books collected by Ria, to DIY Doilies cups, custom name labels for the food&drinks, DIY 12 month picture strip hung by mini clothing clips, and carefully selected fabric...just to name a few. Details, Details, Details!!!  I love it and I hope you love it, too. Enjoy!
