Dressmaking

I made this dress for our formal, and I love it!


Sorry, really random close up of the peter pan collar here. I downloaded the printable pattern off honestly.

I made it and love it, it was so easy!

The Otherist


I don't know about you, but i heart The Otherist!


According to the description of this Wonderland Plate, a lone wolf marches across this oval porcelain plate leaving tracks in its wake. Created by ceramicist Élise Lefebvre for her Wonderland collection, the perfectly formed woodland creature seems to have partaken of Alice's infamous "Drink Me" shrinking elixir and ended up miniature sized.
 Anyone else love this too?

Change

 
Isn't it annoying when someone suddenly decides to change the theme of their birthday party a week before it starts? OK, we finally agreed of a cooking birthday party, based on the kids making all their breakfast, lunch and dinner. Sounds fun!
1st course is popcorn, with toffee or salt flavoring.
2nd is pizza from scratch
3rd is... guess what? Sundaes!!!

I'm so excited!


What we're planning is to have fruit and ice-cream in it, plain and yummy! I'll be happy to show you millions of photo's on the day, but right now - planning. We'll have taste-testing games and eating competitions.
All in our awesome tiny house that contains this awesome tiny room.



 By the way, do you know Maisy?
The birthday girls gonna' get some big suprises on the day!

Dia De Los Muertos Party

Another awesome freebie from funkytime, the dia-de-los muertos party printables! Make sure you have pinatas and lot's of neon flowers, because Mexico is calling you!




Have fun!

Birthday Party!

Happy Halloween everyone! 
My sisters party is coming up, the theme as outdoor movies. As usual we're getting going with invitations early and having fun with decoration ideas, but I'll show you the actual party on the day (probably after). You can download some stuff off other websites like I did, and here they are. Eat drink chic, make sure you cut out the valentines bit 'cause it's meant for valentines day not movies. Have fun!
