The Birthday Party Inspiration

 With all of 20 minutes to gather supplies to decorate for the party this is what I came up with. 
 
(If only I hadn't gone in Home Goods first thinking they might have something I could use.  I wasted too much time in there!) 
 
Since the invitations had mushrooms on them I decided to shoot for woodland - forest.  I really like the cute owl!

The ice cream cups look small, but actually held so much ice cream!  I was surprised by how much they held.

I picked up the gumdrops at Trader Joe's the day before my craft shopping.  I thought they might be useful.

Here is the general idea ...

and a little sneak peek at the table decor.  

I'll be back soon - I hope - to show you how everything turned out.

  1. I love the table decor...you have such great ideas!!
    Thanks for your comments on my blog. Yes, we are sad about moving...but starting to deal with it. We are moving to the Syracuse, NY area. Dennis is a DSP Engineer. Too funny...he works across the street from Boeing...but they aren't hiring for anything that he does.

    I can't wait to see how the party turns out.
