A bridal shower

This past Saturday I had the pleasure of helping to put together Lindy’s bridal shower (Keith’s sister). I’ve known her for over 10 years, it is hard to imagine her as a grown up so this shower was a little weird for me. I was in charge of decor and also decided to give making cake balls a try. They took a while but were a major success! (I gauge success based on the fact that they were edible…phew!)

Take a cooked cake, mix in 3/4 can of frosting and make these. Messy and I can’t say they look so yummy….yet!

Dip in candy melts and sprinkle…voila! Pretty yummy.

Sweet fish dish for making tuna casserole, specifically. Don’t break the rules, Lindy!

Yes I was the only one who got her a “pretty” but still, she needs it! Ewwww.

I’d never made one of these before, proud to say I didn’t screw it up to badly!

The colors? Lime green and black. It was a fun challenge…I found that rad wrapping paper at Target and used it as table runners + accents all over the place. Thanks to the great blogs out there I got some good ideas otherwise I would have been totally lost!

Sister and bro-in-law sold their car for cash today. Photo op!

  3. Choach - Love the color scheme for the shower! I am planning my friend's baby shower for this summer and I will look at Target for coordinating wrapping for a table runner. Great idea and WAY cheaper than fabric!
