Just a preview...a 3rd Birthday!!!


Next Tuesday, my baby turns 3!!! I can't believe it. We are celebrating this weekend, rocket style!
My mom made this amazing runner with some material I found for making napkins. All I did was finish the hem around the border...
I have a stack of old acrylic chargers, so I painted them with chalkboard paint. I think I'm going to enjoy the possibilities with these. 
I used melamine plates from Target, same as Adrian's birthday and mason jars lined with rocket cupcake liners and a straw. The centerpiece will be the cake, but I'll take those pictures Saturday. Enjoy the preview...Andrew did!!!

I'm linking up with

You did a great job on the binding. Some things are better left to younger hands. When I asked Andrew how old he will be on his birthday, he said, "Six!" I think he heard Adrian talking about his next birthday!

What a cute idea for a 3 year old party. With 3 very young grandsons, I'm keeping my eyes open for clever ideas for boys as I have no experience in that arena.

I know that baby is just on top of the world right now knowing what a fun party is in store for him!!! That is so sweet! Three years old is a big birthday! :-) You and your Mom both have done a wonderful job to make this a special party table. I still bow at your feet for being able to do anything at all that involves sewing! :-) As for those chalkboard chargers...get on down with your super bad self, girl!!! What a fun idea! I know the party will be a huge success and HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the birthday boy!!!
