Little Man got to enjoy his very first birthday party!
Come on in and check out our hunting themed celebration:
Balloons
I kept things simple with green and black balloons suspended from the ceiling.

Kitchen Supplies
I used camouflage printed plates and napkins to really bring home our hunting theme. I found these at Wal-Mart and since they were generic (as opposed to Mossy Oak or Realtree), they were only $1 a pack. I also mixed in a few green napkins to break up the camo print and add color to the serving ware cups. A bit of camouflage duct tape helped to dress up the cups as well, and a paper target finished the display.
Camo Candle
A cookie scented candle, along with cupcake wax cubes in the Scentsy warmer, added yummy smells to the kitchen.

Dessert Station
A couple more of the paper targets and a few scattered leaves dressed up the dessert station nicely. I also had another set of plates and napkins here as well. Not only does it make things easier when serving the cake, but the prints add another decorative touch.

Chocolate Cupcakes
Camouflage Cakes
Miniature Cake
The Little Man got to have this cake all to himself.....He wasn't all that interested in it and wanted milk instead, but still it was adorable!

Kitchen Table
After first covering the tables in brown fabric I then arranged deer antlers, paper targets and cylinder vases. The vases were filled with spent shotgun shells/ empty brass casings and I sprinkled faux leaves among the antlers.
