shim + sons

Well, it has been a crapper of a day, so I need a little party awesome-ness to cheer me up! Just what the doctor ordered: the latest gem from Shim + Sons. Mom Sally took a tad of lizard, and lot of white, black and green to make a memorable party for her son's 7th. Her cute thought bubble (which reminded me of MikoDesign's talk bubble) was also a hit. View more of this clever party right here.

I love how perfect this imperfect cake is. The oversized letters are splendid!

preppy first birthday

Preppy Mama had me at the bunting-inspired cake and hand-sewn details for her son's 1st birthday. You'll want to check out all of the red + blue fabulousness (look at that 'balloon wreath'!) right here.

sidenote: I apologize for my spotty appearance on the blog the past couple of weeks- I've been knee-deep in a blog redesign that I simply can't wait to share! Hopefully we will be up and running on the new site by the beginning of next week.

blue + red 2nd birthday

A punchy red and blue 2nd birthday for car-obsessed Jake. Mom Suzanne did a great job pulling together all of the details...even the jello is color-coordinated!
