Party Ideas: Violet's First Birthday

A few things that I've been loving lately for Violet's party:

No. 1: Pretty perfect poppy-shaped cookies:

By none other than the fabulous Martha, discovered via Creature Comforts. Not sure if I can pull these off, but they're sooo pretty! (And I wouldn't mind having the dress to wear either)


No. 2: Easy peazy

Also by Martha, discovered via Nicole Balch on Babble. (Can't wait to see Eleanor's second birthday party!)


No. 3: These gorgeous napkins:

Found over at the Marimekko Shop on Crate & Barrel's site. It's my favorite Marimekko print, and I had to restrain myself from buying the beautiful, beautiful tablecloth, (did I mention that it is beautiful?!) which was $105, so the napkins will have to do!

I can't believe it'll be here in two weeks...eek! Better get to some DIY projects I have lined up...
