I thought I would share this idea with you for Cate's party. They are tissue paper pom pom's and are supposedly really easy to make and obviously super cute. I could totally picture a bunch of pink and green ones hanging all around the cake table...

Re: ***Caro***
I really like the first one, just the striped 1. Very cute. You could even do polka dot plates to mix up the stipes and polka dots. I love that look.
I am going to be asking for some help soon to, I am starting to plan a surprise 30th b-day party for DH in July.
