Custom Ordered Bunting & Flower Girl Sign

How could I not share this recent custom order with you? it's just too sweet!
I received an email from one excited bride who was running out of time to make some bunting, she had intended to do herself, asking if I could help and of course I said - No worries. In a colour pallet of white, beige, cream and soft peach the banner is to be hung right along the bridal table at the wedding reception.
Also in the email I was asked if I could create a sign of some sort that could be carried by the 4 year old Flower Girl as she walks down the aisle in front of the bride. The sign was to read "Uncle Matt, Here she comes!" - what a seriously adorable idea and a gorgeously unique addition to the wedding ceremony.

After a little more chatting about fabrics etc we decided on hessian for the sign with white lettering and I think it turned out rather sweet - what do you think?

Happy Friday Find!

On Sunday my man and I are celebrating our 6th year of wedded bliss! Yay!
We are being spoilt and took up the offer of babysitting so we could spend a kid free 24hrs in the city.
That means I have no-one to get ready but me, so I have a fab new outfit including heels as I won't have to chase kiddies around and a little clutch as I won't have to carry any 'extras' in a huge bag like I would if kiddies were with us (can you tell I'm a little excited?)
Bummer I only spotted this amazing handmade Vintage Bunting Resin Clutch by Luci Doll today... I may have just bought it to complete my date night outfit if I had found it earlier.
Happy Friday xx

Made To Match Bedrooms

The best thing about Giggleberry Creations custom ordered buntings is they can be made to match your existing decor to add the perfect finishing touch.
In the past few weeks I have had lots of fun creating some buntings for kids bedrooms to match their gorgeous bedding and have loved the result...
To match the KAS Australia kids bedding 'Jim's Repairs' this bunting is a fun and bright combo.
This sweet pink, red and turquoise combo bunting was made to match the Adairs 'Olivia Owl' set
And this funky robot set was made to match the KAS Australia 'Robotron' range.
Cool hey??

Happy Friday Find!

Nothing like getting your hands in and playing with crafty bits and pieces... well I think so anyway. My crafty side was sparked when I saw this fun Everyday Fun "Party" Paper from ink. paper. cloth.
So many ways you could use this bunting paper: invitations, letters, scrapbooking, wrapping, card making, gift tags, labels etc etc just need to decide which first!
Happy Friday xx

Chalk Drawing Photos

I am always taking photos. Seriously, I have my camera or iPhone at the ready almost all the time ready to snap a fun or silly or lovely or precious or pointless moment. 9 times out of 10 the subject matter is my children. What can I say - I think my kids are rather fabulous (biased much?) and I adore having snaps of time caught that I can share with grandparents, family and friends.
So when I saw the idea of using simple chalk to create a fun backdrop or prop for a unique photo opportunity I knew I had to have a go.
This is a GREAT activity to do with your little ones. My kids love drawing and colouring in the 'picture' before they jump right in for me to snap away. Milla, who is 4 and a bit of a Disney fan, tells me "it's just like Mary Poppins when she jumps into the picture"... awwwwww
The above pic is one we created to use for Milla's butterfly party invites and below are some other we set up while I was babysitting my niece and nephew a few weeks ago
I was then convinced by my niece that it was my turn to be in a photo rather than take them all so we came up with this bunting inspired one... LOL
The limit to these super fun pics is only your imagination... Have a play with some chalk and your kiddies and be sure to share what your come up with!

Happy Friday Find!

These cold wintery days call for hot chocolate, thick cosy socks, tack pants and a big soft comfy jumper just like this funky find from Two String Jane?
How groovy is this Bunting Banner Hand Stenciled Deep Scoop Neck Heather Sweatshirt. I can see perfect winter afternoons on the couch reading with my kiddies in this beauty!!
Happy Friday xx
