I am so thrilled to share with you photos from Blair's second birthday! Like most two year olds, Blair loves her Elmo.
I was happy to help mom Tara with a classic and stylish Elmo party for Blair, and absolutely ecstatic when she sent me photos from the party - I can not possibly adore them more!
Every birthday party HAS to have balloons on the mailbox. (Ok, maybe not the ones of the covers of magazines, but in real life, we all know this is a tried and true tradition!) I'm pretty sure Tara was not expecting that rare 6" of Georgia snow, but it sure did make the balloon sparkle!!
Colorful tissue poms above the stoop and two adorable ribbon wreaths for a bright and festive entry!
A traditional but sooo special cake table display for Blair! Tara included personalized Elmo decorations like the famous Sesame Street lamp post and sign and adorable handmade blocks, along with balloons and cupcakes to frame... are you ready?... THIS AMAZING CAKE!!
I don't have to describe it - you can see how awesome it is. REALLY awesome. LOVE the fondant bunting on the top layer! And a close up of the Elmo cupcakes too - how can you not love them??
Dorothy decorated sugar cookies for favors!
Personalized water bottle labels... ok again, I just love to see them in action!
And a very special party hat for the birthday girl!
Although she's not wearing it for the birthday song...
Hey, there's a reason "It's my Party" is such a popular song! I think we need to back up a second though to see why Blair was a little sad. Enter Elmo...

Poor thing got a little scared when the 6' version arrived! You know, it happens. Especially when you're two. (I do have to say that Blair has the most adorable little pout I've ever seen, doesn't she?!) Mom came to the rescue and wiped away the tears...
... sang a special little song and blew out the candle...
... and proved once and for all that there's NOTHING a cupcake can't fix!
Oh my, now that's all worth it!
Thank you soooo much to Tara for sharing these pictures!!! You planned an absolutely perfect Elmo party and I know many, many two year olds' mommies who are going to be inspired by Blair's birthday celebration. I hope Blair LOVED her party regardless of the little character anxiety, and send many birthday wishes to her!!
Her momma did a GREAT job and as usual your work is nothing short of amazing, Jill!!
ReplyDeleteFantastic job!! Love the wreaths. Happy Belated Birthday to Blair!

Such cute ideas. I love the ribbon wreath - did you make that as well? I'm researching ideas for a friends daughters 2nd birthday party and having so much fun - my little one is now 10, and these sweet days are long gone. Thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteHi Karina - Tara made these wreaths herself from a blog tutorial! I'm not exactly sure which one but you should be able to find several just by searching google. They also have adorable versions made from uninflated balloons : ) Let me know if you can't find any and I'll take a loof for you!
