yellow birthday party

When I asked what kind of birthday she wanted, my daughter answered, "yellow".
Well... I think I got that covered. Here are the photos from her party yesterday.
I sewed her dress from the same pattern I used for her Easter dress. I just changed the hem and sleeves to my liking and made a rosette broach. The tablecloth is the leftover fabric from her dress. The button and lemon were for the two games my daughter requested; button button who's got the button , and hot potato, with a lemon instead of a potato. I baked the cupcakes and made lemonade for refreshments. The party favor boxes were from the wedding section at the dollar store, I just added the name tag dots and mini clothes pins. I got the paper lanterns for a dollar each at Michael's. I got the balloons and giant punch balloon at the dollar store. Lastly, the flower wands barely pictured next to the lemonade were favors that I made as well. The flowers come off and become hair clips. Can you tell I had a lot of fun with this party? :)
