Snow White Birthday Party. Mirror Mirror

We just got back from a week in California,Where Sophie celebrated her 4th birthday with friends and family 

I planned a Snow White themed birthday party for my Princess obsessed 4 year old.




















For activities, I had the kids break open geode rocks. They were a big hit!

















The girls also got to decorate mirrors





















Can you spot Sleepy?


some pictures of Sophie as Snow White


Lots of Birds throughout








Mini "pies" and the "mushrooms" are really maringue candies




Poisoned Potion (punch) and Magic Wishing Well Water (lemonade)


re-used Starbuck bottles, paper straws and a "leaf" to resemble  poisoned apples






Candy filled apples were the party favors




I made the chocolate ruffle cake, The ruffles ended up melting and sliding off even before the party started. I guess it was to hot.

I'm such a dork!

I love the show Once Upon a Time. The story line of all the characters is very intriguing. I especially love shows with good costumes/clothes and decor, I remember watching The Ghost Whisperer just to check out Jennifer Love Hewitt's (Melinda's) outfits. I can't afford any of Mary Margarete's clothing (bought in stores like Anthropologie, club Monaco and modcloth)but I was able to find the mug she uses in the show. Its from Anthropologie and only $6.

cute right?


It was my first time ever in an Anthropologie store, and all I got was a mug :P



I'm a coffee addict. Here my mug is filled with instant Nescafe, splenda and a bit of coconut creme coffee mate creamer.

See? here it is in the show.





I love her apartment. We are moving back to our old home in Kentucky and I can't wait to decorate in a similar style. I'm over the dark wood colors I have been living with for 11 years.

By the way, Mary Margarete (Ginnifer Goodwin) is Snow White from the fairytale world.
