I promised pictures of my sister's fabulous birthday fete ... And here they are! I just love the wonderful Department 56 hat - What a great cent
erpiece! All the dainty accessories are antique and/or vintage- including the tiny drink umbrellas. The sparkly chocolates are from Fresh Market - one of the best places for fine 
candies and unusual party foods.
Tracy Porter served as my inspiration for the party favors - We made tinseled utensils:) Using my collection of bits and bobbles we made whimsical spoons. Millinery flowers, rhinestones, charms, old watch parts, and ribbon are just a few of the beauties we used in our art work. My 2 sisters and I each made 3 spoons while my mom was satisfied with one of her fabulous one of a kind creations - The gold toned single pictured spoon is hers. My sister Shann
on, the birthday girl, made spoons in the following themes: Halloween, Blue Cameo, and Little Birdies. Angela, the oldest of the 3, focused on Victorian Beach, Christmas, and Violets. My personal creations included Spooky, Spring, and Antique Circus.I encourage you all to create memories with your loved ones... Making beautiful lovelies is a perfect way to grow closer as friends. When displayed, each piece reminds us of the time we shared with our family and pals.
