Boho themed birthday

A Nutella themed cake for the nutella lover ... 

Isn't this cake impressive.

You've got to order your cakes from Moonface, if you are based in Dubai. 

We had a little drinks station, giving the girls a choice of cold coffee, a variety of juices, and fruits to put in your drink & ice tea. Ofcourse they loved the choices! 

and i think I loved it too!! 

This is the table setup with food & other snacks!! 

A little cup cake station for the girls to put their toppings.. 

Fresh waffle station!! This was a huge success .. and the girls totally loved the choice of toppings & the writing...

Finally the give away bags. 

With a little thank you note! I love organising birthday parties for kids. But my girls are now growing up too soon... *sobs!

Boho themed party - part 2

Here is showing you the rest of the decor. 

We had a little tee pee set up for the girls to enjoy some photo opportunities. You'll notice I use this tee pee at nearly every event at home. The younger kids just love it. 

And the older kids love it too... See what I mean?

Around the garden we had little flags & dream catchers. No matching colours or anything. Just anything pretty we found indoors, came outdoors to form part of the boho decor.

Giving you a better view...

Another corner..

This dream catcher had a few feathers below it... for the girls to write a birthday message for Eva. It was a huge success.

And Eva truly values it, and still has it hanging in her room.

The girls loved writing messages....

One of Evas favourite gifts this birthday was a poloriod camera... They posed & had pictures of themselves on display... It was rather cute...

All in all a pretty birthday...

Part 3 on Friday to show you what we did for cake & food. See you then!!

Boho themed birthday - Part 1

For my younger daughters birthday, we put together a boho themed party for her. Shes wild, carefree, loves colours & art and definitely is unconventional (possibly in a good way!)

So here is the invitation...

The garden area was set up with everything from indoors, from cushions to table cloths, rugs, mats, even furniture & decor accessories from my little girls room *smiles*

We used four warehouse palettes for the table. 

Some decor moved from indoors to outdoors ...

Thats how the outdoors looked... 

Do you see a basket in the background? We had wreathes to wear on your hair for the little girls.. They looked so pretty...

More decor & other activity ideas in part 2. Stay tuned!!

Library in Sri Lanka

On an quaint little street in Sri Lanka, we stumbled upto this old library .... 

My heart skipped a beat and I wanted to be here forever.. 

No!! No!! Not for the books...

But just for the most amazing furniture ever... 

I love those chairs... that table... that cabinet.. and those shelves... 

Have you every come across something like this? So unexpected & so beautiful!?
