One Vintage Birthday

I love to decorate with vintage things, even for birthday parties. These are pictures from my daughter's first birthday party.

The vintage: old painted red chippy "1" (0h look, here's ONE for sale!), plastic "happy birthday" cake decoration, red and white heart hankerchief, blue glass cake stand.

The made to look vintage: plastic bear containers with fun party hats filled with strawberry cherrios and pink, red and aqua m&ms (these served as decorations and party favors!).
*I loved this idea, "borrowed" from Sweet Eye Candy Creations...thank you, thank you, thank you Jennifer!
The yummy: homemade cupcakes and cake balls (except I use homeade frosting and melted chocolate chips for the coating)

The pretty: fresh flowers arranged by my (super talented) mom, and tied with vintage seam binding (thank Martha for the seam binding idea)
