A Little Party Blog

In a blink of an eye my son Jasper is 9. Our adventure seeking boy really loves hiking and exploring, so it seemed fitting for him to have a hiking themed party and I'm so excited to share all the details with you. First off, I like to keep my parties simple and easy to style. Although I own A Little Confetti, I don't consider myself a party stylist and I promise that this party is one you can easily make look great in a small amount of time.  Beside a typical birthday table set up, we also set up a snack/treat table and in...

Readers be warned - this is no ordinary birthday party blog, what you are about to read will be a guide to creating the most magical experience for your wizards (umm, I mean party guest), leaving them feeling like they just travelled from platform 9 ¾ to Hogwarts for the day. Ready to board the Hogwarts Express? Let's go! Our party friends, the Dunford girls, are always up for creating some birthday magic and this party was no exception. From the Great Hall to Hogsmede, inspiration was pulled from various books in the Harry Potter series to bring this party to life. You're probably...

In my family it was always a tradition to have a nice Christmas Eve breakfast. We'd have my Aunt, Uncle and cousins over, champagne and orange juice for the adults, eggs benedict, salt fish and jam (a Newfoundland tradition).

But this year I am inspired by my friend Kaylee's Jolly Santa Breakfast to do something a little special for my son Jasper on Christmas Eve morning.  This breakfast setup is...

Let me introduce, Artist, Creator, Pre-School Teacher, Elise from Hip Hooray Studios!    Here we are again, that stunning time of year where the air becomes crisp, the trees begin changing into an array of splendid yellows and you start preparing to spend a little more time bundled up inside.  With the colder months on their way, I find that parents and caregivers are looking for fun and creative things they can get up to with their...

In Alberta we are about to be hit with a triple whammy! Valentine's Day, Family Day holiday and for some school boards, PD days -  oh and don't forget covid! This means during the polar vortex (yes, we are experiencing temps as low as 40 degrees Celsius with windchills) the kids will be stuck inside for 4-5 days over the upcoming weekend. I'm already thinking how am I going to keep my little guy busy? (it's actually his birthday too!) Well it's never too cold for a mini party and we teamed up with Laura and some local businesses to bring you some...
