DIY NECKLACES FOR THE LITTLES FROM THIER SUMMER ADVENTURES + WEEKEND LINKS

Happy Friday!

A great start to the weekend for me! Well sort of.  Dropped little h off to preschool - not a tear… FROM HIM.  Me on the other hand, I still felt on the verge of a good cry inside?!!  Extra hormones?

At any rate, one last birthday gift for the munchkin. These necklaces made from shells and stones we found on our summer adventures.

She insists on wearing them all at once? Never too many accessories I suppose..

To Make
Cut brightly colored cotton cord (available at Craft Stores) about four inches longer than the desired length of your necklace.  Knot the cord ends. Fold it in half and wrap it around the shell or stone, the pull the cord ends through the loop.  Tighten and secure with super glue or hot glue. Let dry!

Speaking of breaking news… I was on the local news again!!! At this rate, I'll be a local celebrity in no time!

This ValMariePaper prayer journal may be just the addition I need to stay purposeful and on track with my prayers for my family, goals, and ambitions.

If you follow Bunnie Hilliard on Instagram you know that munchkin turned 6 - WOOT!! And if you don't (follow) check out what she said was THE BEST DAY OF HER LIFE here.  see #munchkinturns6 on Instagram for the play by play or her special day...

So excited to take the long weekend to read something new and funny. A dear friend left this book for me at pickup from the preschool today. She thought I'd like it - its about a blogger. One last sumer read!

a {SUPER SWEET TEA} party

Before I forget, I wanted to share the pics from this adorable little high tea party I styled for fellow blogger Mimi Scarlett. These little darlings were SO ADORABLE. They really had a great time noshing on miniature sandwiches and cupcakes and sweet candies.  We are in the South and its been a VERY HOT  summer so these girls preferred to sip on chilled sweet tea in the tiniest little china. They were dressed to the nines in mini fascinators (small fancy british inspired hats) and little gloves. For fun, they were allowed (just this once) to play in mommy's make up and get all dolled up (lipstick, blush, the works!). And as a special treat I provided each little lady with their very own munchkin statement necklace, handmade by yours truly - trying my hand a little jewelry line {BH&Co.} I think. 

So yes, SO MUCH FUN!

More Pics:

I already have another request for a tea party for the CUTEST soon to be 5 year old and I've got the munchkins {Retro Mermaid} birthday party right around the corner, so I will be pretty busy. Writing and planning parties are my MOST FAVORITE things to do, so I'm a pretty happy girl. 

I hope you are having a great week!

xx,

Bunnie
