Party Inspiration Board No. 3 - Vintage Wheels

Dum.Dum.Dum.

I know the suspense has been building!
{smile}
Now to reveal the boys'

2nd birthday party theme...

VINTAGE WHEELS

{celebrating our boys' love of anything with wheels}

I admit this one took a bit. 

I wanted to again personalize the party

for each of my boys,

but also have it all tie in together,

while I can get away with it.  


The textures and materials
I will be mixing in are...

wood, metal, burlap, chalkboard, and kraft paper

Aside from the color of these materials,
I will be adding in navy, aqua, red, and antique white accents.

Take a look at this inspiration board.

It makes me excited!!

Now less than 10 days to pull it off!
{with the actual birthday in that timeframe too, yikes!}

A Bounty of Bunting!

I {heart} bunting!

I know it's not a new idea,

but I tried to put a few twists on it.

I also love how you can make it for practically nothing at all.  

Sharing a few bunting ideas

for the No. 2 celebration!  

Burlap Bunting

I made my stencils out of paper,

no fancy machines 

{someday}

but I really like how the 

different shades of burplap

and black turned out!

{my homemade stencils}

Paper Bunting

This was made from images

of old steam engines and trains,

 that I found online

sized appropriately, printed out,

and then glued onto some jute twine.

I added some #2s throughout

to tie it all together.

Fabric Bunting

Probably the most traditional,

but these fabrics just called 

out to me on a recent trip to 

the fabric store,

they will help tie the theme together.  

{the perfect fabric!, do you hear them saying my name?!}

Can't wait to show you,

how they'll look 

with everything pulled together!

 Linking up to these fabulous parties!
