marbled paper birthday decorations
This month, my daughter turned 14. And while in my head I’m in total and complete denial, on the outside it was SO fun to brainstorm with her on the marbled paper birthday decorations we decided to use for her party. As my own kids get older (and no, you CAN’T put a brick on a kids head to get them to stay little), their birthday parties certainly become more of a “look” than a “theme”. It makes me a little sad to say no more roller-skate no more rock star – for my daughter’s parties at least. That is why we...
