IT'S A BOY!!!

hosted at my parent's place by my Mom, sister & best friend. 

I couldn't resist but help with some of the decor & popcorn bar 

I took a picture of this in the beginning stages of setting up and forgot to take a picture once fully set-up.

"ITS A BOY" - cricuit cut letters glued onto white paper cut into triangles

-taped triangles onto ribbon and hung

CHALKBOARD - DIY chalkboard (blog to come)

to add to the blue theme my sister and I got some blue paint chips and cut them into 1 inch strips and folded them over using a tiny piece of tape then strung them using thread

POPCORN BAR ~ 4 different kinds of popcorn (recipes below)

white baskets lined with blue napkins and 2 scoops all from the dollar store

For each recipe I made 3 bags to fill the baskets to the top.

I cheated and used microwave popcorn...
