For the First Time In Four-Ever – Emilia´s Frozen Fourth Birthday Party…

….

I have finally come around to recap o little girl´s fourth birthday party. It was a really nice one and she has picked the theme all by herself. While it has been a mermaid birthday party for months she changed to Elsa last minute and I was not mad about it. There are oh so many things you can get for a Frozen inpsired kids birthday party. Made it super easy for me to put it together.

Color Theme

I would say that the color theme for a Frozen birthday party is pretty easy to choose – we used different shades of icy blue, silver and white. Some balloon kits also had purple but I wasn´t going to take these cause I wanted it to look as frosty as possible.

Our Cake

We had a pretty simple cake this time (at least shapewise). It had eight layers colorblocking blue from light to dark on the inside and was filled with vanilla buttercream inbetween. The outside also has been vanilla buttercream in the prettiest icy shades topped with silver and blue sprinkles and shiny fondant snowflakes. The figurines on top as well as the four was put on the cake by ourselves. I really loved this cake and Emilia was so smitten by it. It tasted great and everyone loved it (we always get the big theme cake for our family birthday celebration).

Decoration

As far as decoration goes I will always love a balloon arch. It is an easy and inexpensive way to add a real centerpiece to your party decor. Another thing i had been very proud of finding was the background. It has been a picutre out of the first Frozen movie. The place where they have found Olaf and everything was frozen really pretty. I have loved this as background. The perfect piece to round up the wall decor. 

For table decor I had a silver velvet tablecloth to add some ice and snow flair and topped it with a sheer baby blue snow flake table runner. I really loved all the vibes it gave and how great it matched.

Kids Activities

In my opinion kids at this age are fairly easy to entertain cause they still like a lot of things and nothing is uncool. One thing that works great and is loved by everyone are tattoos. I have had them for our Halloween party and they where a huge hit. Another great activity is to choose some easy games and let them win stuff for some time. I have gotten sweets and small toys and the kids loved winning things. 

Adult´s Table

I think this was the prettiest adult table I have made so far. It really looked like it was out of one of the many rooms from Arendale castle. I kept it pretty with candles, a table runner and a blue centerpiece with baby´s breath and added some snowflakes on the table as well as onto the lamps for a little extra.

 

Party Favors

I have loved our party favors this year. I have found tons of Elsa related party favors for the bags this year like pens with Anna and Elsa on them, snowflake hair clips, snowflake sticker, wristbands with Winter themes, a cool penguin game and of course bubbles.

Kids Table

I always get paper plates and plastic table cloth for the kids table cause when they are done eating I just throw everything away and have one less thing I don´t need to worry about cleaning. I was pretty lucky this time around cause I have found all the perfect table decor things with Anna and Elsa for a fraction of the cost at a local supermarket.

Very Berry Second Birthday Party…

…..

(post contains affiliate links/Werbung/Markennennung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links-not sponsored)

Somehow our little girl turned two this week. How can she be two ?? I remember the night she was born like it was yesterday holding her and looking into her wake and dark blue eyes. Time really is a thief. 

She is a sassy and active little lady always on the go and having fun with everything she does. Her favorite food in the world are strawberries and what more fitting than throwing her a strawberry themed birthday party in June – the month of the strawberry.

 

Very Berry Second Birthday Party

I had a lot of fun planning this party. There are lots of cute things to get regarding this theme. 

The Party Decor

I have gotten everything strawberry related I have found on the internet. Most of the pices are from Temu, SheIn and amazon. For the cake table I had a red sequin table cloth and a strawberry table runner. I have decorated it with golden candle holders holding red candles and a strawberry shaped vase I have stuffed with babies breath. 

For the photo corner I had red fring curtains, a Happy Birthday garland and two gorgeous strawberry shaped lanterns hanging from the sealing.

The big balloon arch makes the real statement. There are two simple things that really elevate party decor and that are ballons and flowers. I got a kit including the dotted ballons and the strawberry shaped ballons but you could easily just get different plain colored ballons and mix and match together as you like.

The Cake

Our birthday cake is mostly a mix from 2 to 6 cakes I have seen on Pinterest. I pick out the features I like best and text it our awesome cake guy. He can make all my cake dreams come true.

The top layer has been a chocolate and caramel cake with buttercream on the outside and the bottom layer has been a vanilla sponge with strawberries and fondant on the outside. 

I personally love a mixture of buttercream and fondant cause there is something for everyone. 

The Table Decor

For our table I went with a classic white table cloth and of course a strawberry table runner on top. I had little strawberry confetti I have put around the runner and a big basket with flowers in the middle.

Kids Cap, Hat, Scarf and Glove Storage Solution and Organization…

How on earth is there always a mess somewhere. I have days where I definitely wonder where the messes are coming from cause I am trying so hard to prevent them and I am nearly done with organizing the whole home!!!!

This cabinet has been an eyesore since I have moved all things in there but I was just too busy to come around organizing it until Emilia searched for a specific cap and I have thought we lost it but found it two weeks later. 

In fact it is a very simple undertaking ticked of in under 15 minutes if you have everything you need. 

I already had two of the wicker baskets and got another two at JYSK. They fit perfectly and are only 11 Euro each, hold a ton and have a handle to pull out.

The tags are an old amazon find I have used in the girl´s room earlier. I didn´t need them much longer so I got some black and writable stickers on amazon and reused them. 

These are the tags and these are the sticker. Both are very affordable and hold up really well.

Here are the before and after pics:

9 Shows to watch in the Summer….

….

(

We are heading straight into Summer and with all the great activites to do then we probably stay busy but that doesn´t mean people aren´t watching TV in the Summer months. 

I wanted to share nine shows with you guys that would be perfect to watch in the Summer months (in terms of fashion and locations and weather). 

9 shows to watch this Summer

Country Comfort

Haven´t watched this one yet but I really loved the trailer and I think it is a very fun and light summer show to watch. A country bar singer turns into a nanny of five. Who wouldn´t love a country show.

Surviving Summer

Not my favorite at all cause those snotty teenagers are a real handful but I loved the ocean views and all the surf scenes.

Lincoln Lawyer

The best lawyer show in my opinion. Just the right amount of excitement, mystery and drama plus the sleek outfits don´t hurt at all. 

One Piece

One of my favorite childhood shows. Of course it was still only animated back then but I was so excited when I heard that there will be a new show starring real people. Season one is all about getting the crew together and I just can not wait for season two and all of the ocean adventures.

Sweet Magnolias

I have always loved everything southern and this really is a gem of a show. The houses, the outfits, the hair and of course the southern mentality and hospitality. Can´t wait for the next season.

Griselda

Still not sure how I like it but it was not a very long show to watch. Only had a few episodes. I thought it was great how she built her empire until she got mad and turned herself in at the end. Very violent watch with lots of dead people and drugs but the true story of Griselda Blanco.

Selling the OC

I have started this a long time ago and was so over the drama at the end of season one but somehow gave it another chance and I am a few episodes into season two and like it a lot (at the moment, this can change very fast). The outfits are great and the houses with the ocean front views are just too die for. 

Selling Sunset

This has been my favorite show for a long time and I would have never thought that I will hate it this much at the end. It was great until season three but then everything took a turn for the worst. They all turned on each other. I am not even sure if there where house showings in season three cause things went down the drain so fast. The outfits got super slutty (I would never buy a house of a realtor looking like that – there is a very fine line between super stylish and sexy and what some of the girls are wearing).

The Summer I turned pretty

I loved the first season but wasn´t a fan of the second one. Too much anger and confusion. I loved the backdrops, the starring people, the awsome Summer moments and the dreamy houses. Hopefully season three picks up again and it will be better.
