Jackie from Jack and Kate styled this gorgeous Mint themed party for her two year old...it was "mint to be" ......as told by Jackie.. "My baby girl just turned 2 and I wasn't going to do anything at all this year . But about 2 weeks ago the guilt started to set in, so I thought, what can I do in a week and half?? First, I called Lesley Wright of the Royal Bakery and begged and pleaded for her to do a cake as it was so last minute. She is such a great friend and agreed to do a cake for Violet. I decided to do a Mint theme based on Violet's Easter romper I had ordered from www.dreamspunshop.com. I had some mint colored paper and used that to make the cute "Happy Birthday" Banner. The banner and the romper then became the theme. I sent a picture of the banner to Lesley at the Royal Bakery www.facebook.com/theroyalbakery and she came up with the most adorable and amazing cake (notice how the pattern on the cake matches the pattern of my banner - she's AMAZING!). A few days before the party I started making mint colored chocolate dipped oreo's (both regular and mint filled, of course). I also made mint colored chocolate covered cookie pops (which are Violet's favorite). I made some cute cupcake wrappers, so I had to make cupcakes. I made chocolate cupcakes with vanilla butter cream frosting and some mint sprinkles. The sprinkles I ordered from the www.thetomkatstudio.com
It's not a party without stripey straws and of course mini mason jars with the daisy cut lids, so I made mint colored lemonade to put in the jars. Since I had such limited time, I went to my personal pinterest board for ideas that I had been dying to try, but just needed the excuse. So for favors, I made the girls the flat washer necklaces. They were a huge hit!!! Everyone loved them. It was the perfect 2nd birthday for my sweet little Violet. Here are some pictures of the table and the necklaces."
