Country Fair

Poms Galore

From Cheeks Celebrations
One of our favorite ways to add that special touch to a party is the ever so popular decorative tissue poms! Whoever came up with this is a genius! The possibilities are endless as seen below...

From Martha Stewart Weddings
How to Make the Pom-Poms
You'll need tissue paper and 24-gauge white cloth-covered floral wire.

Hanging Pom-Poms
1. Stack eight 20-by-30-inch sheets of tissue. Make 1 1/2-inchwide accordion folds, creasing with each fold.

2. Fold an 18-inch piece of floral wire in half, and slip over center of folded tissue; twist. With scissors, trim ends of tissue into rounded or pointy shapes.
3. Separate layers, pulling away from center one at a time.
4. Tie a length of monofilament to floral wire for hanging.


From Party Poms 
   



      You can make garland, stems, or napkin holders. Poms even work as tree decoration and 
                                                            centerpieces!

Add a pom to your next celebration!

Charlie's Dinosaur Birthday Party

Cheeks Celebrations owner, Claudette Guerrero, just threw her 4 year old a dino-mite birthday party! From food to activities, this party was a blast! Check out some of the highlights below :-)





                                              The sweets were delicious and on theme.



The kids dug for dinosaur fossils, had growing dinos at the lab, and created dinosaur foot prints in the play dough.


        Cheeks Celebrations ordered dinosaur masks and customized the girls with homemade bows.


The pinata was bigger than the birthday boy!

Find this theme and many others at Cheeks Celebrations.

Cheap. Simple. Favors.

Cheeks Celebrations is in the midst of planning a Baby Shower this month. We're always looking for easy favors for any occasion and look what we've come across. Chelsea Fuss had this sweet & simple chocolate shower favor idea.

To make them you’ll need: Chocolate candies in gold wrapping, unbleached parchment paper, rayon trimming ribbon (available here: http://www.custompaper.com/Shop/Ribbon/midori_rayon_trimming.html ), and double stick tape.

Then simply:
1. Wrap the candies in parchment paper and secure with double stick tape.
2. Wrap with rayon trimming ribbon.
3. Line them up to display or place one on each napkin.

According to Chelsea, these will cost 10c each to make!

Halloween Success!

This Halloween event from the Couture Parties Blog looks like quite the success! Notice the use of healthy foods even on a holiday like Halloween :)
