If you follow me, you know that I just made it through the craziest couple of weeks EVER! I had so many major events happening within the same week, PLUS I had to leave for Oklahoma to decorate Karen Marinelli’s classroom.
My goal… just get through one day at a time. That was all I could do. I remained positive and told myself that it would all get done…and it did.
My daughter’s 5th birthday was in the center of all the craziness. I wanted her to have a memorable birthday, but realistically, I didn’t have the time to go “all out.” She had mentioned that she wanted a mermaid party, then it hit me! Why don’t I just recolor my “By the Sea” theme to PINK? This would be very easy to throw together in a day.
With a combination of light pink and gold, shimmery glitter, I created a dreamy birthday party that every little girl is sure to LOVE!
ENJOY!
