Bumble Bee Antennas Tutorial

Would you like to know how to make these super cute bumble bee antennas?
Ready?…Easiest craft ever!…lol :)

Materials:  black plastic headband, ribbon, black pom poms, black and yellow pipe cleaners and glue gun.
Take your pipe cleaners and cut them in half
Start twisting them as tight as you’d like
Grab twisted pipe cleaners and make a little “L” at the end before you glue on the headband
Then take your black pom poms and hot glue them at the top of the pipe cleaners
Squeeze the pom pom tight for a few seconds until it’s secure
Then hot glue the headband and cover it with your ribbon
That’s it!  Here they are! :)
Here’s one of our little guests at the party modeling one for us! :)

Thank you for stopping by!  

Have fun making these little favors!


Leopard Princess Party!

I'm so excited to share my daughter's 4th birthday party with you all!  She is my youngest.  She is feisty, strong-willed, sassy, and at times a little trouble maker.  However, she is also tender, sweet, loving, kind, and a great little sister!  She loves anything princess and she wanted a princess party, but I wanted something not so traditional.  I love anything animal print, so that's how the theme was born.  

I'm blessed to have met the two gorgeous girls behind, Anders Ruff.  They were at the Martha Stewart conference in New York this past January.  They are super talented!  They created  this entire party collection from scratch for my birthday girl!  Aren't they awesome?!  I love their designs as much as I love them.  Thank you Adria and Maureen.  You girls rock!

Here's my gorgeous leopard princess!  
This picture was taken by my lovely friend, Liz.  You can see her blog, HERE.


Party pictures were taken by Oh Snap Photography by Carlee 


The gold metal crown on the wall was custom-made by FaithGrace Creations


Leopard cake from Inspired Occasions
Crown on the cake from Hobby Lobby
Magic wand cookies from The Cookie Jar
Chocolate covered strawberries from Sweeticakes
Pink velvet cupcakes from Decadent Delights
Princess crown cupcake toppers from bug&boo



Personalized cookies for each little princess from Scrumptious Swirls.  These are the BEST sugar cookies I've ever eaten in my life!! No joke! You should try them :) 


The crowns you see on this drinks table are not mine.  I borrowed them from a sweet friend.  The personalized "HANNAH" wood blocks are from postscripts etsy shop.  Cute, cute stuff there!!  The favor boxes are from Hobby Lobby.  The water labels and party circles are from Anders Ruff. 


Leopard plates and napkins are from Paper Style. The pink plastic wine cups are from Hobby Lobby.


I turned the palapa in our backyard into a princess castle...what do you think?


The rose garlands are from Hobby Lobby.


I borrowed the carriage from a friend.  The gorgeous fresh rose arrangements on the table are from BloomingMill.  They were beyond perfect!  The 3 rose balls hanging were hand-made by yours truly and they took over 7 hours to make!!  The pink table runners are also from my shop, A To Zebra Celebrations.


I set up a "princess nail station" where the girls got their nails painted.  I found princess stickers at Walmart and the girls were so excited!  They also got a custom-made personalized necklace from 3 Little Birds Boutique.  The pink candy lipsticks are from Candy Sweeties of Arizona.


My princess Hannah....isn't she beautiful?... If I say so myself...lol!  Her crown was purchased in a boutique in Los Angeles, CA.  Her flip flops are from Old Navy.  My good friend, Jen added the leopard bows on them.  


Here are all the Royal princesses.  They looked beautiful, but they truly felt like a princess!  It was so magical for them!  Which little girl doesn't love to dress up, right?


  The girls enjoyed breaking the leopard princess pinata.  You can find it,  HERE. 




I made a banner for the front of the gifts table, but this time I chose "THANK YOU".  The thank you favors were princess crowns with pink jewels in a leopard box from Hobby Lobby.  They also received a leopard flower clip from Punk Pixie Creations.  Thank you so much, Amanda!




Other details about the party.  Each little girl was dressed in a pink pettiskirt from Pout In Pink.  The personalized leopard princess tank tops are from The Lucky Princess.  They are also wearing leopard wraps from Vintage Rose Wraps. 


The pink and brown wood sign on the thank you/gifts table is from Our Hobby To Your Home. She is super talented! Be sure to check out her shop. 


The brown chair covers, tulle, pink bows on the chairs, pink and brown feathers were purchased in Los Angeles, CA in various stores.  


I am so thankful for everyone who was involved to create this party for my little sweetie!  I could have never pulled this off without every.single.one.of you and all your help!!  THANK YOU! THANK YOU!! 


So, what do you all think?  Is this so crazy, over the top, fabulous?!! I love how everything turned out.  


Would you like to have a party like this for your little princess??  Guess what!?.....AMAZING giveaway coming next week that involves almost every vendor on this post......Wooohooo!!!  You will not want to miss this one!!
