Mustache Party for my one year old!

The pics from the great Mustache Bash are FINALLY done!

Even though the lead up was fairly stressful, I had a great time. I blogged about the invitations, goody bags, mustache crayons, party mix and inspiration, but here is the proof that it actually did happen!

Admittedly, I went a little overboard with the theme, but if you're going to get wet, you may as well go swimming!


Here's my take on the mini-bunting craze. Yup, mustaches! I just hot glued some die cuts to some bakers twine and suspended it between 2 straws.

...and the mini milk bottles (Italian juice bottles, cleaned and labels soaked off)

Mo toothpicks (excuse the back side of them here)

I made these mo' plates by printing a gif onto some clear mailing labels, then cutting them out and sticking them onto clear plates. The napkins were done using one of the stamps I made.

The menu (for about 30 people!!) was:

• Chocolate Cake (also made a sheet cake because there were so many people)
• Popcorn in popcorn bags
• Asparagus and Zucchini Frittata
• Falafel with Tahini dip
• Veggies
• Blue Cheese Dip
• Hummus
• Grissini
• Watermelon in the shape of mustaches (cookie cutter)
• 2 types of mustache shaped cookies - I made some and a dear friend brought some. Her's were tastier
• Melting Moments (a delish Australian cookie, they melt in your mouth)
• Sandies, courtesy of Mark (Rachel's husband)
• Leb Bread chips - Lebanese bread brushed with EVOO, sprinkled with Lemon Pepper, then baked
• Party Mix
• Clementines
• Chocolate milk
• Various other soft drinks

...And here's the birthday boy, enjoying some falafel and chocolate cake. Mmmmm, good combo, Mum!
