My eldest daughter, had a birthday party at home today. It was a jewellery beading party for 13 girls (she was suppose to invite only 10 but ended up with 12 plus her). I made the birthday cupcakes and cake. Ash chose the decorations for the cupcake. I was going to buy the cupcake stand but found a site with instructions on to make one from
here. It was easy, I bought two foam rounds 6 and 8 inch and covered it with lilac and white coloured ribbons, colours chosen by Ash.
My hubby and I prepared the food. On the menu (as requested by Ash), the girls had:
- Chicken Schnitzel
- Chicken and Vegetable sausage roll (from Delicious Magazine)
- Potato gems
- Cheezels
- Fruit kebabs
We kept the food simple because we knew the girls would be busy with the beading.
It was so busy that we forgot to take pictures of the food. Only remembered the cake. The girls had a great time, busy with their hands and chatting away. They each made three projects - bracelet, pair of earrings and necklace. A few girls also managed to make a ring. Lovely creations by all, colourful ones too. I'm sorry I can't post photos of the girls.
