Cowgirl Decor

My 5 year old wanted a Rodeo themed birthday party this year. I decided to go with the colors brown & pink.  I was pleasantly surprised to find paisley print paper & ribbon, so I also incorporated paisley into the them.

I used my Silhouette to make all the paper decor.  Here is the goodie bag using a brown paper lunch bag with a horseshoe on the front.

For the Watering Hole, I made a sign & stuck into a bale of straw.  I also glammed up the drink dispensers with the pink/brown/paisley ribbon.

One of my old boots served a great flower vase!


I love the Banner I made.  I will have to use this for all future girl birthday parties.  Just need to make a name one for my other daughter.

I didn't get any pictures of the centerpices.   :( But they were mini straw bales, wrapped with the brown/pink/paisley ribbon and then had cowgirl & cowboy paper silhouettes stuck into them.  I also added pink & white flowers to them.

The sign that greeted all our guests.

I tried my hand at making chocolate caramel pretzels, which were much harder than I anticipated, and then totally forgot to add them to the goodie bags.
