A Princess and Knight Party

We all had a great time at Violet's 4th birthday party! Everything was made by me, my mom and sister Jordan. The theme was very princessy. Can ya tell?! My girl loves PINK.

Here are the invites that Jordan created and I had printed at Walgreens up the street.

The 6 layer Princess Cake made by Mom. That was some work! Halfway through we joked that we should have given in and bought the Barbie head cake from Target.

But it turned out so pretty and tasted great! We copied this cake from a blog but I can't remember which one. Someone send me a link please!

Violet woke up to see a bounce house in the backyard. I'm not sure who had more fun in that..the kids or us big kids!

My mom made her outfit. We were inspired by this outfit from BellaGraceCreations.
The table all set up. I forgot to fix those falling streamers on the right. Mom sewed the streamers together to get a more frilly look.

I found the sweet pink polka dot fabric at Hobby Lobby 40% off.

The flowered up "4" was made using this tutorial from Prudent Baby. I couldn't wait to start this project. Very cheap to do and took less than an hour. The Princess Violet cake toppers were made by Jordan. That was one of Violet's favorites from the party.

Cupcake Push Pops!

Pink Lemonade and Tea.

Princess Pom Pom Wands. These were fun to make. I have leftover tulle maybe I will make a tutorial.

Glow in the Dark Swords found at Target. My mom made all the labels.

Candy Kabobs! These were a big hit. You can find them on Etsy. Jordan and my mom surprised us with them. They said the trick was to spray the sucker stick first with cooking spray before sliding on the candies to prevent a gooey mess.
We served lots of food. I didn't get pretty pics of it all but there was cheese & crackers, fruit, popcorn chicken, Ina's Chicken Salad, Spinach Artichoke Dip, Chips & Salsa, cookies and cake!

Thanks for stopping by to see Violet's party!
