"Fair Day" Birthday


I am in love with this Fair Day birthday party for two 4 year old cousins. Not only am I in love with this party but the blog Aesthetic Nest!! Anneliese is this super talent mommy of 2 girls and one on the way with such beautiful photos and ideas on her blog! Here is the dessert/favor table in country fair theme. Love, Love, Love. Don't you just love the nostalgic simplicity of it!! I am loving this bandanna tablecloth she made!! She made the labels using card stock ~printed and punched and adhered with double sided tape using the Giga scalloped oval punch.

EEEEEEEEEEKKKKKKKKKK orange preserves in such cute canning jars using fabric that she used on outfits for the birthday girls. Oh how I wish I could sew!


Anneliese wanted to go with a bake-off idea for the cake. So she did three cakes: Red Velvet (my personal fav), Lemon Bundt , and Buttermilk Chocolate (check out her blog for recipes). She was going to put out blue ribbons next to each of them but was worried nobody would "get it". I would have!!!



The Fair Day activities included deposited raffle tickets from their invites in a jar for our giveaway. (Each child actually won a gift)


The food consisted of hot dogs, watermelon and kettle corn.

Can this be anymore sweet?


So glad I found you Anneleise, many blessings and congrats on your newest blessing coming soon!!
