This weekend, we are hosting the baby shower for our dear friends and I’ve been spending any free time lately prepping little party details. One of the projects was inspired by these adorable beverage signs below (I usually make every effort to be sure and credit people for their photography and projects, but I cannot seem to find my way back to where these came from. So if you happen to know, please send me a note):
I adore how simple and sweet these little beverage labels are! I am a big fan of pulling the design of the invitations into the party itself, so I decided to create some adorable little tags to label the food and beverages at the party as well!
First I took the beautiful image from the shower invitations (designed by Alexandra Ladizinsky of Ladd Design), minimized the size of the files to include several on a page, printed them onto card stock, then took a trip to FedEx Office to laminate the cards.
The result were these sweet little food and beverage tags which can be written on with a wet-erase fine point marker and reused again in the future. I’ll be sure to photograph the finished result on the morning of the party.
I’ve also been busy cutting a whole bunch of little butterfly patterns in different shades of green so that the straws will be more appealing and fun! This was a pattern I had from an old Martha Stewart Living magazine and had saved in my “Entertaining Ideas” folder just waiting for such an occasion as this one! More to come soon…..
I love reading your updates Keel. your ideas are great, and your such a sweet friend…I can already tell that the shower will be much appreciated. love you and wish to see you soon. jo
A woman after my own heart……I have folders too
I can’t wait to see the finished results!
