More party and Christmas ideas

It's a cold rainy long weekend here in Sydney and with nothing urgently requiring my attention I've been thinking about the little guy's birthday party again and playing around with a few food table ideas:



How cute are those little wafers! A favourite of the big guy I purchased them in Woolworths in a box of 6 snack packs.


Also found this caddy which will be perfect for holding cutlery and napkins (not sure which printable to use):





This is a photo of the inside of the caddy:



And filled:

Sorry about all the white! I have zero photography skills and not many suitable places to take photographs inside (and its pouring with rain outside). These are the best shots I could take with my little point and shoot.

The caddy is actually an undersink storage caddy I recently bought at Target (found in the laundry section with the pegs, coathangers etc) - a bargain at only $10.00. I'm a big believer in re-using, re-purposing and finding alternative uses for items. The glass jar shown above is one of two I also purchased recently from a homewares outlet and they were filled with scented tealight candles.



I've also been thinking about Christmas again and have been browsing Hostess With The Mostess. Love this simple and beautiful place setting:




And one day I might be game enough to try and make some cakepops. How gorgeous are these from Bakerella:

  1. That caddy looks really handy - I like the print-out with the 'Happy Birthday' text on it. That table setting is really cute x
