1st Birthday Party


The party theme all started with a polka dot platter. I went to one of my favorite bakeries in Los Gatos called "Icing on the Cake". I was looking for ideas for my son's 1st birthday party and there it was - a polka dot platter from this new brand called "French Bull" by Jackie Shapiro. http://www.frenchbull.com. They have the cutest things from kitchenware to stationery and more. I planned his whole party for months based off this platter for color and design. The party was simple in style and content. I threw the party at Oak Meadow Park in Los Gatos. The platter held chocolate and carrot cupcakes with multi colored sprinkles. The kids' favors were colorful pinwheels and tin buckets filled with toys. Each bucket had different goodies depending on the age of each child. For the toddler boys there were little board books and transportation tub toys. The older boys got wind up dinosaurs along with the tub toys. For the girls there were wind up butterflies and cute animal tub toys. The party was a big success and simply done. I think my little 1 year old really enjoyed his big day.
