Freya style: Royal meets Winter Wonderland Birthday

So it's been a while since Fareyha turned the big ONE so I thought to share her day and some of the the ideas I had around her party. As hectic as it was, it was a very bittersweet time (I'm sure all mothers can relate). I was proud to watch her achieve so much, yet sad that with each day she's gaining more independence she is 'needing' me less (selfish, I know). I'm so excited to continue on her journey and I'm looking forward to her showing me more about herself. Zillion emotions all at once equals to, motherhood.

First of all, her theme was ROYAL Princess meets Winter ONEderland (believe me it changed a thousand times). I came across some beautiful handcrafted invites on ETSY. They were basically what her whole day was around. Because they were handmade, adjustments were made according to what I wanted (because lets admit, it's really about us). We had a guestbook for everyone to write a message for Fareyha, even her very young cousins just drew pictures! Thought it would be something nice for her to look back on. We customised the party boxes ourselves with hand prints and glitter which was a fun activity for us to do. I will try to recreate the cakepops I made and add them in another blog, didn't even get any pictures of them as I was running around like a headless chicken! Anyway, here are a few pictures from her day, hope you like and get inspired.
