Throwing a party for a one-year-old can be quite the affair. And why not? After all, parents are celebrating a whole new year of firsts, especially for baby number one!

This momma pulled together one adorable party for her little one. Combining her love for cats and her trendy style, this party will keep you smiling as you browse all the purr-fect details. Keep your eyes peeled for some easy, DIY ideas that may inspire your next event!

This simple DIY kitty head band was a great way to offer guests a favor and keep them looking like fun, party animals. Simply cut two different sized triangles for the ears (you choose the color paper) and glue them together, next purchase some inexpensive headbands from the store (most of these head bands come in packs and can even be purchased at $1.00 stores!). Once your ears are dry, attached the ears to the head bands about 3 inches apart using a hot glue gun. Voila! Simple but oh so fun!

The kitty silhouette garlands are so festive, hang them up in door ways or large open spaces for an inexpensive decoration. You can purchase bulk paper at most craft stores and print a template from the computer, just a little time and cutting for some great party accessories. Momma used her little girl’s month-by-month photos on the front this garland, a great way to display her as she grew up. My how a baby changes that first year!

This dessert bar has me all heart-eyes! I just love the black and white stripes and the different color pinks! Keeping it classy!

There is quite the assortment of desserts too, cake, cookies, rice cereal treat with caramel, caramelitas (if heaven was a cookie bar) and doughnuts.

The smash cake is just as adorable as little Callie Kitten. To be sure that the little cat lady didn’t have an allergic reaction on her birthday, I made her a gluten free and dairy free cake. This one was so yummy too, the icing I made from coconut oil, vanilla extract and powdered sugar, so good!

This yummy treat was definitely a success for this precious birthday girl!

Special thanks to this lady for all her creativity and generosity. I have made so many cakes and goodies for this family that I am pretty sure they are a main key to my success.
