Love Bird Bridal Shower

I had the fun opportunity to throw my sister a bridal shower. I am so excited for her to get married in a few weeks! We stuck with her wedding colors since we already had lots of fabric in her colors...and since I might have a small obsession with birds I picked a "love bird" theme.

On the menu...Tortolini in a creme sauce, Caprese Bites, Garlic Bread Knots and Berry Pine Nut Salad

Canvas wall hangings...so easy! 4 Canvas {found mine at Walmart}. Cut out fabric, enought to cover the front and wrap around. Staple gun the fabric to the back of the canvas. Cut out coordinating fabric in the design you want. I used a stencil for the letters and used this template {printed 2 on a page so I got the size I needed}. Then just add mod podge to the front of the canvas, add your picture/letter and mod podge the front. I love how they turned out and since these are the colors she is also using in her home the also turn out to be a fun gift for the bride to be!

This is one of the funniest games I've ever seen at a shower {the maid of honor came up with this} and so perfect for my silly sister. So to "prepare" the bride for any challenges that may come up in the future, we blind folded her because the "lights went out on her honeymoon and she had to get ready to go see her husband...in the dark". We put a ton of silly items {including this awesome moo moo} in a suitcase and Steph put them all on. And we just all laughed...it was hillarious. But that is why I love my sister...she is so silly and has such a fun sense of humor.

For dessert we had a Ice Cream Sundae bar. Photobucket


This was totally inspired by EatDrinkChic.


I made my own labels because her colors didn't match but I love how she put links to the fonts she used and I basically just copied her concept. {don't compare mine...her's is still soooo much better...but it was so fun...and yummy!}

My amazing dad made waffle bowls from scratch {42 of them to be exact!} And they were yum!
