Yet another creative and beautiful little celebration from Tina Fussell to start this week, and this one feels so perfectly holiday too, doesn’t it? She planned this party for her son Parker’s birthday, inspired by his favorite book “How to Catch a Star” by Oliver Jeffers. Love taking inspiration for a party from a favorite book so much.

She painted the backdrop, based on the illustrations in the book.

And made cupcakes, cookies, a cake, and pretzel treats that all coordinated with the theme.

That red striped vase is actually just a pillow case pulled over a plain vase. Great, inexpensive DIY tip!

Love these colors for a modern holiday party too!

She always has such a nice way with color.

Happy Birthday, Parker!

You can see more of his party and more details about Tina’s projects on her blog this morning too.
