It is no secret that I LOVE craft fairs. Finding unique treasures that people have created themselves makes me happy and when I find something special that I can bring into our home I gladly support the local artists, vendors and crafters.

Celebrating our little man’s first birthday was much anticipated and we couldn’t be happier with how things turned out. We decided the theme for his party would be The Very Hungry Caterpillar because of the bright, bold colors and because our little man is just that; a very hungry little caterpillar!

You probably have all of the materials already in your house and who wouldn’t love receiving little love notes “just because” daily/weekly/monthly or however often you’d like to dole them out?? […]
