Claire's Candy Shoppe Birthday Party was on Saturday. She picked this theme out about 6 months ago. The girl LOVES candy, so I wasn't surprised when she told me she wanted a Candy Party. I made the invites early in the summer because I knew I wouldn't have much time once the baby arrived. I love how they turned out. {Now available in my Etsy shop!} Walking up to our house, I made lollipops to line the walkway: Because the party was at 2:30, I just had snacks. Pretzels, Goldfish & Smartfood: Veggies & Hummus:Fruit Kabobs: The dessert table: My mother in law makes the BEST cakes. Claire wanted a gumball machine & she nailed it! In the backyard, I had bunting around the pool: I had a bounce house: The kids needed to bounce all that sugar out! The main focus of the party was the Candy Shoppe that I set up inside: Favors (along with all that candy!) were toothbrushes! Cake time! It was such a fun party and I am so glad we got to celebrate Claire with our family & friends! It was a sweet celebration, indeed!
