DO: A Fairy Birthday Party!

My little Bella just turned 5. (that makes me cringe inside! my baby is 5??!! eeek!) Well, we decided to do a low-key family birthday this year - but of course, we've gotta make it super girly, right?? So, this year, I found a bunch of inspiration online for a fairy birthday. This is what we did. 


A PIXIE HOLLOW BIRTHDAY:

I loved the sticks, moss and mushrooms...

Happy Birthday, my little fairy princess!
