The Party

Here the result of two of the activities we did during the kidsparty, they painted their own portraits inspired by Frida Kahlo and we did a photoshoot with them. I really love how it turned out.


The party was great we had so much luck to have a sunny day and spend most of the time outside in the garden ( so much better....) In the morning we had the kids party with 9 girls in total and in the afternoon we had a party for our friends and family with mexican food.
I will post some more pictures soon of the Pinata's and the other decorations and at the end of this week there will be a little Frida Kahlo party give away !!

I love it all. What a creative idea. The portraits turned out wonderful. I love to see parties which are not inspired by commercial characters. I love that your daughters are so cultured. You must be a wonderful mom :)

Ik heb echt bewondering voor de al het werk dat je verzet hebt. Zo'n sterk, mooi neergezet thema! Wat zien de dames er mooi uit en wat hebben ze prachtige schilderijen gemaakt. Ik ben benieuwd naar de rest van de foto's.

Wow, everything is so beautiful..and I love that your decorative shelf spells "love"!. I have been busy collecting things for my daughters 10th party . We found a Frida charm at our craft store!! and mexican style blouses at a discount store that I managed to alter to fit both of us. I was inspired by your work to add lots of trims to a colourful tiered skirt I had already purchased for her. The making of decorations, necklaces and favours for this party will be a summer long project to keep my daughter very busy this summer. She's getting an easel but I also have a wooden box that I would like to decoupage for her (inspired by your sewing box!) . For party favours I have found small colourwheels and artist booklets on colour mixing, we'll add a fabric millagro pincushion . We may have to think about choosing a different artist each year for her party-I am loving this theme so much!..let's see, Degas-ballet, Van Gogh-sunflowers, Picasso- blue period/cubists, Keith Haring....etc even japanese Anim e would be an awesome theme! Thank you so much for sharing!!!
Thanks
Corina
