Lisa's Bridal Shower

My sister-in-law, Lisa, is the "pink triplet" that was her assigned color as a baby so we (Kristi and I) decided that pink, black & white stripes and gold would be a nice little combo to celebrate the bride-to-be!
It was a great turnout and we had so much fun getting her ready for her big day and night (notice clothing line).





















Doesn't this girl look happy? We had so much fun putting on her shower and are so glad we have this awesome girl as a part of our family.

As for the decor, I made a low budget so I picked decor that took time not the $$$:

- Ruffled streamers- sewing two streamers together. Way cuter in person and I was happily surprised. I would highly recommend these.

- Making the pinwheels/ paper rosettes (black and white paper).

- Bath salt thank yous- baby food jars (I can't bare to throw them away, they are too cute) spray painted and hot glued bows.

- Striped Tablecloth- I really wanted a wide black & white striped tablecloth so I got white fabric, measured, put down packing tape and spray painted away. It wasn't perfect but with everything on top you can't tell.

- Gold cupcake stands- Glass plates and glass sundae dishes (purchased for around a $1 each) lightly sanded, spray painted gold and hot glued (probably could have used a better glue) together.

It all turned out just so perfect and I'm glad we had so much fun at the shower!

Hi! Thanks for stopping by my blog. In response to your comment, I would TOTALLY make the pop tarts again. They were a huge hit around my place, and well worth the time that it took to make them. You could even make it easier on yourself and buy pre-made dough.

The bridal shower looked like fun! Cute decor!
