Another craft

I am planning for our last birthday party until next summer. (This is our last kid birthday party until next summer, in case you feel like all I ever do is plan parties!) My precious baby will be one year old tomorrow. I wanted to find a way to "walk down memory lane" with our family at her party. So I got a picture from each month of her life. Then I "backed" the pictures like I do when I am scrapbooking. And then I glued the month at top with a little lady bug sticker. Then a taped each picture to a baby food jar. I am going to put white gerber daisies, if they come in white, or sunflowers in each jar and use them for centerpieces.

Here's a few...

and the others...

And the back. Now, I guess I need to move on to more important things like a birthday cake and food. :)

  5. Such a great idea. You have certainly earned your break from birthdays! I am certain that your party recipients are more than thankful for all the memories you are creating.

    Blessings.
