Belated Birthday Indoor Picnic

Every year I always have a really belated birthday party. I usually have some type of theme. This year it was a vintage, pretty picnic. We were supposed to go to Southbank but it has been raining. Today the weather was so unpredictable. It would be sunny, then cloudy but it didn't rain. I still decided to move my little picnic to my place and have it indoors (it was also hot and muggy outside so being inside with the air conditioning was really pleasant. 


My little set up.



I put the lace on the tiny milk bottles to prettify them. And it looks great with the pink paper straws.


I made these paper pinwheels. They are one of my favourite easy decoration to make. 


My lovelies. My nephews Micah, Isaiah and Caeleb. And pretty Layla-Rose, Isaiah and Caeleb's sister. 


The food. Chocolate dipped strawberries, pepperoni, rice crackers, dips, camembert cheese, raspberry macarons, coconut macaroons (Jasmine made them - delicious!) and some vanilla with pink icing cupcakes. 


The yummy cupcakes. 

I have a few Instagram photos that I might share another time. Plus I tried to get some photos with the girls but my camera doesn't like taking good photos indoors without a flash. I hope to get some from Jasmine.

I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend.
