Well, it seems as though our "I Heart Valentine's Day" shoot has been seen by many of you (THANK YOU to all of the featuring blogs for your support!).... however, we still need to share it on our OWN site! Becca Bond Photography did such an awesome job, and I can't wait to share all the photos...
This is by far one of our favorite projects that we've done. We included LIVE subjects this time (mostly our children ;)) to show off some fabulous clothing by MiniMooh. That posed a whole new aspect of styling, but it was SO much fun.
This post is image heavy...
but a nice sale surprise at the BOTTOM of the post!
We had major inspiration to do something different for the hanging decor. The paper plate polyhedrons are SO easy to make and we were pretty excited to create something unique.
You can find the tutorial on Disney Family Fun....
Cotton candy made a GREAT filler display in the tall glass jars. The cookies from Allyson Jane were strung with ribbon and hung over these fabulous glass apothecary jars.... Don't you just LOVE the cookies!?
Here are some more of the beautiful cookies from Allyson Jane. She baked them with a hole in them so we could embellish with a ribbon. I love adding another texture to the cookies!
This cake was from a regular plain-old bakery (seriously - $8 at Target!) and we dressed it up with fancy and beautiful fondant from Sweet Petal Bakery. We love this option to decorate our own cake with professional decor/fondant!

Lollipops with the printable lollipop covers were stuck into the fun layered jello (SO easy to make!)
Patterned papers were used with heart craft punches to create this super fun garland that hung on the front of the table.
Don't you love the mini chocolate bars with the printable wrappers?
Also, the hershey kisses labels!?

Printable folding labels...
The cupcakes from Cupcrazed Cakery in Baxter....
Heather does such an amazing job making the most
unique flavors of cupcakes! These were scrumptious!
We love party flags - they looked really cute on top of the paper straws (from Bake It Pretty). Drink wrap wrapped around the Jones Soda....
Are you smiling yet?
This is funny. The first photo Becca took of (my son) Pierson and Arden was this...
... the second shot....
It just took Arden's mom coming into the room and doing something cute to light up their faces!
Here is Adria's adorable daughter, Grayce.... so cute!
Jeffrey (Anders) and Grayce (Ruff)... best of buddies!
We used the patterned papers to make these hearts that
we topped the oreo truffles with....I just love all of the patterns!
(PS. I made these oreo truffles with my cookie girls - we get together every Christmas to make cookies and this year we made these! So fun, right?!)

We included some new design accessories in this package. Favor hangtag, and a template for a box with heart closure.... and a COOTIE catcher / fortune teller.... (bringing back memories yet?)
We used the twine from The Cupcake Social to create a sweet little pom on top.

The paper plates are just BRILLIANT! I adore the cotton candy too!
I must ask - did you paint the paper plates pink, or were you able to find colored ones. Such a great display - thanks for sharing!
This is the most gorgeous Valentine's party I have ever seen!
The apothecary jars are absolutely fabulous...I wonder if they were expensive to buy though? The tic tac toe game with pink/red chalk is very clever and the kids love to play it so...great idea!
I’m always looking for these kinds of posts but its not easy to find such good information. ariadne travel
This would be the right blog for everyone who is wants to find out about this topic. You already know a great deal its practically tricky to argue on hand (not that I really would want…HaHa). You actually put the latest spin on the topic that's been written about for several years. Excellent stuff, just excellent! https://casaparadiso.net
