My Birthday ~Breakfast at Tiffany's Theme

Sorry I left you hanging yesterday by not posting my birthday pics. My hubby surprised me with a night at a resort in Scottsdale for me and my out of town guests. So right after breakfast we cleaned up, packed up and left for a glorious time at the resort. Even though it was a breakfast, you know I had to have a dessert buffet!!I think my favorite decor item was my cake stand. I found the jewelry box at Goodwill. It was originally brown but nothing spray paint can't fix! Spray painted it fuchsia to coordinate with my color scheme and added some pearls to pay homage to Holly Golightly. Got to have cake pops!These beautiful petit fours were chocolate cake. I turned a Dollar Tree square vase upside down and filled it with crystals that I got at Christmas time last year. I wrapped a box with coordinating wrapping paper and ribbon. I secured the ribbon with pearl corsage pins.


All I bought for the table centerpieces were flowers. I used various pieces of crystal inherited from my mother. Of course I had to use my Tiffany Champagne bucket center stage. I filled the crystal with blue M&Ms, fuchsia, blue and silver Hershey kisses. I figured Tiffany jewelry is eye candy ~why not have real candy as well. Plus I have tons of it on hand left over from another party so no additional cost to me! I already showed you my cupcake stands that I made from my wonderful Goodwill finds here.

The Tiffany boxes were Red Velvet cake~my personal favorite! I love the Breakfast at Tiffany blank cards that I found at Papyrus. They were perfect for menus!

The food buffet table. Can you believe I found that picture of Holly Golightly (aka Audrey Hepburn) at Goodwill? It still had the Z Gallerie price tag on it.





Words aren't enough to express how much I love this little girl. I am eternally grateful to my heavenly father for blessing me with such a precious gift! I had such an awesome birthday! Thank you all for the well wishes and lovely birthday comments ~ I feel like we are friends. I guess this is the modern day pen pals!
