i heart this idea!!!

I am really, really smitten with this garland idea Tania shared with us. She created a t-shirt on zazzle, then sent the t-shirts to family and friends near and far, with the request to photograph themselves wearing it. She even sequestered far-flung family members in Italy, neighbors and pets! Then she backed all of the photos with fabric and strung them on a garland to surprise her husband on his birthday. This homemade present was huge hit!

This idea is so fabulous and I think could be used for so many occasions beyond a birthday...a friend stuck in the hospital? Someone going through a hard time? Such an amazing pick-me-up to let someone know they are loved. Bravo, Tania! Check out more of the 'I heart Steve project' right here.

reader question of the week #2:

"My twins - a boy and girl - will be having their 4th birthday end of September I don't know if it's time to panic or too early. My dilemma is what sort of theme can I do that will suit a boy and girl and also something easy to put together? I thought of 'Under-The-Sea' but still not 100% sure. Any ideas??? Thanks! -Arlyna"

purple bunny, please

What do you do when your almost 9 year-old requests a 'purple bunny' party? You give it to her, of course. Lucky for Ella, her mom is super creative Aussie Tania McCartney. While most of us might seemed stumped for ideas with this thematic request, Tania took the idea and ran with it. This is only a smidge of the party...see much more right here.
