We just celebrated O's first bithday yesterday! It was a lovely and festive affair. Before I show you the day-of pictures, I wanted to share some details. Whenever I am hosting a special event, I usually get a custom stamp made (I lke to use Impress Stamps). Having a rubber stamp allows you to emblelish almost anything you want with your party motify. An quick and easy thing to do is to create your own custom napkins. For O's party we created orange and blue robot napkins. All you need is your stamp (it doesn't have to be custom, there are some great stamps already available), a fresh ink pad (I like Color Box), paper napkins, a flat surface with room to layout your napkins so they can dry and a little time. The work goes by pretty quick and before you know it you will be all done. After you transfer your image to the napkins make sure you let them dry, I usually leave them overnight to dry. Your guests will love them!

They turned out beautifully! Love the robot motif. Heading over to check out Impress.
