This weekend Cole had been invited to TWO parties of course at the same time and day! So I had to split our time between the two parties. Personally I would have loved to stay all day at the second party (of course for a Girl so Cole gave me the face that he had to go). The mom and her best friend were so much fun, I wish I could have stayed longer to maybe make friends .. LOL I'm so needing a Girl Friend.
I texted to RSVP for the event (because you know that is my crazy pet peeve that people don't do that) and asked what theme. She let me know Spring / Hello Kitty. So this girl went on a theme hunt! You know me by now and my love for a theme! This actually I must say is one of my favorite gifts I've made in a long time.
What you need:
Bucket (I found a pink one with flowers and Butterflies)
Spring Sign
Bubbles
Chalk
Flip Flops
Note Cards
Pinwheel
Flower Toy
Candy
Homemade Cookies
Stickers / Coloring Book
Large Clear Gift Bag
Ribbon
Card Stock (if you want to add tag)
Arrange all items in the bucket. I put it in clear bag and tied it with a nice ribbon that reminded me of spring. I found this cute FREE Printable for a Spring Bucket List on Love Bakes Good Cakes that I added to the ribbon before I tied it up. You can really do anything you want with the bucket. I just found all things that reminded me of spring, then a few Hello Kitty items I found. Most items can be found at Dollar Store or Michael's Dollar Bin.
NOW of course I couldn't just leave it as is! I had to bake some cookies (recipe and pictures to come soon) but if you're looking for a yummy recipe I made Banana Chocolate Chip Cookies.
Don't forget to see the parties I link up to HERE.
I love it. Only spring hasn't sprung here yet. It's 4 degrees this morning. Ouch.
