Party Prep!

I've spent several hours over the past couple of days hand-making all the decorations for Lillian's First Birthday party. It's been fun! But, boy o' boy, does it take a lot of time and make a super mess. Today's focus was the "cake pop" stand. I'm in love with it and may have to find a way to display it in her room later!

Found this at Meijer. It comes in several pieces.
Here it is set up and untouched.

My first theme for her birthday party was "Candy Shoppe Cutie," but I was unable to get some of the items I needed in time. So, I switched it over to "Patterned Dollie." Here's Lillian playing with an inspiration piece. 

I don't know which doll is cuter!
Oh, wait, yes I do!
It's Lillian!

  

I used a lot of what I had laying around the house, but I also spent a lot of time browsing Etsy and the Scrapbook Corner here in town. After using all my goodies, this is what I came up with for the cake pop stand.

Finished cake pop stand.
The cake pops slip right inside the "holders."

I've made a lot more decorations including a "Happy Birthday" banner. Some of the decorations are included in this picture. I'll post pictures of the entire party after Sunday.
