one cool pick has thrown yet another creative party for her son, Riley. This time, a ‘skater boy’ themed event. Looks like a ton of fun! More here. (See her other parties here and here).

I try not to play favorites, but it’s no secret that the Frida Kahlo party (remember it?) is one of my all-time top ten faves. So when I got wind that Erika (F.K. mom) had thrown yet another stellar party, I couldn’t resist posting! This time… was the theme. Guests made eiffel-tour snow globes, dined on french treats, made french talk bubble photos and more. For all the details check out miko design blog or .

Too awesome to resist ‘pioneer’ birthday from Sarah. So original, so thought-out… in one word, amazing! There was chicken feeding, candle dipping, and potato sack races, among other things. Much more here.

You won’t want to miss this *great* party from lullaby lubbock! A ‘tiny two’ themed birthday where everything was tiny. No- this isn’t a completely original idea- but Mom Allison took the theme to a new level. She collected large refrigerator boxes from a big box store and created a ‘tiny town’ for all of the birthday guests to enjoy. Check out the mini hospital, church, house, Starbucks and McDonald’s! Sounds like everyone was in heaven. See more right here.

Cute sock monkey 1st birthday party right here.

From Mom Meredith: “People have always commented that Meredith looks like a ‘vintage’ little girl, so I thought I’d honor that with a retro-inspired party a la Dick and Jane. The starting point was the Dick and Jane painting books I found last summer at a dollar store and went from there.” I love all the vintage-inspired details, and of course, the Pears and Bears dress! Those ‘apple’ cupcakes are great, too.

Too cute for words ‘milk and cookies’ first birthday party from A Party Style .
