A couple weekends ago, I had the opportunity to throw a sprinkle
for a friend who is due with her second baby next week.
Since it wasn’t a full on baby shower, I ran with the idea that it was a sprinkle.
A sprinkle shower!
As soon as I saw the invitation on Pinterest, I knew it was perfect.
From there, the decor all fit into the sprinkle theme.
Clouds & umbrellas
All of the food and drink items had to have sprinkles.
I dipped the bottle rims into a bowl of water, then into a bowl of sugar sprinkles.
They hardened perfectly within a few hours.
The bottles are Starbucks Frappuccino bottles that have now been through three parties,
and I’m sure will go through many more!
The party was at 2pm, so I figured desserts with sprinkles would be perfect.
Mini cupcakes from Sweet
Chocolate covered pretzel rods with sugar sprinkles
Sugar cookies with sprinkles
Funfetti cheese ball with vanilla wafers
The cheese ball was a big hit. It was so yummy!
We had so much fun sprinkling mama and her soon-to-be baby boy with love!
i seriously LOVE the starbucks bottles as party drink vessels. time to start drinking some bottled ‘bucks!
another tip for rimming glassware — sometimes, especially if it’s plastic (glass is easier), it’s more effective to use Karo corn syrup! It’s what we did for our ZTA 6 party with the hot cider drinks…and I still use it all the time!
oxox adorable event
Ahhh so smart! Good to know, I’ll definitely file that away for future parties. Thanks!! xoxo
