Princess & the Frog Party

This past weekend was the Princess and the Frog Party I decorated for 4 year old Cadence and it turned out great! As you remember, awhile ago I posted a message looking for people in the Philadelphia area who needed help decorating an event.  Well in addition to posting it here, I also (aganist the wishes of a few of my friends lol) decided to post it on Craigslist too.  From that posting,  I was contacted by a lovely lady looking to have a Princess and the Frog themed party for her soon-to-be 4 year old daughter and 7 of her lil friends.  Turns out we go to the same church and we are sorors (shout out to all my Deltas)!  How ironic is that?

I had a great time planning this party and the mother was great to work with! Lil Cadence has food allergies so her mother cooked all the delicious food for the party and we gave them cute little names.  Check out some of the pics!

Welcome Sign I made for the party

I spray painted this frame lavendar to go with theme

Check out the centerpiece for table.  I thought the frogs were too cute! They were silver, I spray painted them green! Remember spray paint is your friend! lol

Full table set up

  1. Another job well done! I love the centerpiece. I have to ask.. How do you get those perfect circles (like those on the welcome sign)??. I want to do a banner with circles hanging from ribbon for a cute as a button themed baby shower.

  2. Thanks!! I did the circles with a Craft Punch. You can order them online or get them from Micheals or any other store similar to it. They come in different sizes. Hope that helps :)

  7. OMG, I wished I had found your site before 10-9-2010. Just helped my husband's cousin with her wedding. We made the wedding flowers, wedding cake and centerpieces because she too was on a budget. I was glad to make the cake, I've been making wedding cakes for a hobby for over 25 years. I love your work. Outstanding.
