He is 1 already and it's his first birthday ever!
We chose a nursery rhyme theme to celebrate our little Yusuf's big day.
Rich green, blue and gold, a party fit for a prince!
Being his 1st birthday, we decided rather than a playful theme, to go for a more classic, vintage sort of look.
Pretty soon the little guy will be deciding his own theme, so Mommy was allowed to decide this time :)
See pics from the party below...

| Little lollipop tree centrepieces with nursery rhyme cut-outs. |
 |
| We alternated these Jack and Jill wooden pales with the lollipop trees. The patterned paper windmills had lines from nursery rhymes on them! |
 |
| Themed napkin rings |
 |
| A different take on a sweet table- Chocolate balls, pretzels, wafer sticks, macaroons, chocolate fingers and caramel popcorn. |
 |
| Paper bags for guests to take sweets home in with nursery rhyme themed 'thank you' stickers. |
 |
| For the adults- favour boxes filled with homemade nougat. |
 |
| For the kiddies- Candy bars with themed wraps... |
 |
| ...and hot chocolate spoons with a sweet little 'thank you' tag on each... |
 |
| ...and nursery rhyme books with a sing-a-long CD. |

| Cupcakes with little buntings in colours to match the deco. |
