First off, a big THANK YOU!! to Candace and Nicole from the adorable, wonderful, and inspiring blog, Crafty Sisters, for featuring my blog! They are always so sweet and complimentary to me. And both of them are as cute in person as they are online! I adore them both and admire each of their amazing talents, so thank you again Nicole and Candace!
Next, I wanted to share some of my brainstorming for my little sister's baby shower that I am throwing in June. Yes, it is still a little ways away, but I love planning parties! And, I want it to be special for my sister!
She is having a baby boy, so I am going with a vintage hot air balloon theme for the party.
I already have this fun print. I love all of the colors I will be able to pull from it... mixed with lots of browns, whites and creams, of course!
Here are some of the ideas I have collected from Pinterest. I created a whole board just for the shower; I am so excited for it :).

I am going to use the various different vintage napkin pennant banners I have made... the less girly ones anyway.
I am also planning on using my vintage book page pinwheel banners.
And, as far as the food goes, I would love to do some cupcakes, mini pies or cheesecakes in canning jars, and cookies like these except with a hot air balloon stamped on them.
I have also found a few adorable things on Etsy that I may use.
I hope you had a great weekend and are refreshed and ready for a wonderful week ahead!

Okay, Can we say adorable??! I love this idea! Are you doing the shower in Boise? Or down in Utah?
Hi Kristen, I found your blog through your feature at A Simply Klassic Home, and it's adorable! I just wanted to share a post I wrote recently, about transforming a paper lantern into a hot air balloon - I thought it might help in your planning for this cute party idea. Good luck with your blog, and I can't wait to see more!
