Violet's Winter ONEderland Party

My daughter, Grace's sister, turned one a few days ago! We decided to go with a Winter ONEderland themed party. Turns out, South Louisiana got an unheard of 3" of snow the night before her party. How's that for party planning? Ok, ok, I didn't do it, but I was told by several people that we must have amazing connections. ;)

Here was the main party table:




We had "yellow snow" lemonade(watch out where the huskies go, and do not eat the yellow snow) Special shout-out to my sister for thinking up that one:





We made cones out of doilies and dowels and filled them with cotton candy(snow puffs). We had powdered donut holes(snowballs) and white chocolate covered pretzel sticks(icicles):


The cake and cupcakes were iced in pastel colors and covered in edible glitter, Vs for Violet, and Sixlet pearls:


The cake topper was made out of white chocolate and I made it by watching this tutorial.


We also had a Hot Cocoa Bar. This picture was taken before the final product. Sorry, time got away from me! We had almond joy bites, caramels, reese's cups, andes mints, crushed peppermint, whipped cream and sprinkling cocoa powder and cinnamon as options to dress it up the way you want!





We also had some savory treats like popcorn in snowflake paper cones(shown in the second table picture above), pigs in a blanket(brrr) and quartered PB&Js.

The party couldn't have gone any better. Great friends, visits from family and lots of kids running around having a good time. Pure love. Isn't that what life is all about? Violet sure approved!
