As a person of our church, when we turn 8 or join our church after the age of 8, you get Baptized just like Jesus and become a member of 'The Church of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints'.
SEREN WITH HER DADDY
ME, JASON, SEREN & CARYS
So, when our darling daughter, Seren turned 8 in March we knew she'd be getting baptized. A decision she made also :)
WE ARE SO PROUD OF HER AND LOVE HER TO BITS :)
Given all that, I began the process of figuring out what THEME to use for her and the family and friends who would come for refreshments afterward.
THE WONDERFUL WOODEN CIRCLE WITH SEREN'S FULL NAME AND TEMPLE WAS MADE MY BY ELDEST DAUGHTER JODI WHEN WE WERE IN WALES FOR A VISIT IN MARCH.
JODI HAS A WONDERFUL LITTLE SITE:
I MADE SIMPLE TISSUE GARLANDS
AND THOSE CIRCLE GARLANDS DANGLING ABOVE THE #8
I ALSO MADE THE TRIANGLE BANNER, WHICH I USED FOR BOTH OF OUR GIRLS' BIRTHDAYS THIS YEAR.
I PURCHASED THE RAINBOW WITH RAINDROPS BANNER FROM ORIENTAL TRADING
THE MORNING OF SEREN'S BAPTISM
AS TREATS I USED 'TASTE THE RAINBOW' AND SKITTLES.
I HAVE TO ADD - SORTING EACH COLOR BY HAND WAS TIME-CONSUMING.
I made cupcakes and used Xtreme sour candy belts as a topper as well as making the cupcake wrappers in the rainbow colors to match the triangle banner and rainbow circle decorations.
I MADE THE WOODEN HALF RAINBOW CIRCLE FOR THE SUCKERS.
How the table looked before everyone tucked into the food and candy and towers of individual rainbow jello.
YOU CAN SEE HOW I MADE THE RAINBOW TABLE SKIRT - HERE
