| To celebrate Madeline’s 17th birthday we decided on a pink and green theme and just went from there. Invitations were made using card stock cut into the shape of a tag. I got the idea of using different fonts from invitations I’ve seen on Pinterest. |
 |
| Madeline chose 10 of her favorite quotes and we put them in inexpensive and a few re-purposed frames. I wrapped them in gingham fabric from Walmart and they played the game of exchanging much like the rules of an ornament exchange. I found the rules here. |
 |
| Madeline insisted no candles, no singing happy birthday…so we went with flags made from Lilly Pulitzer gift wrap. Thank you dear Elizabeth for finding LP paper! |

| Twistbands, garden roses and miniature latte bowls from Anthropologie, frames wrapped in gingham fabric and ribbon from Walmart. I generally wrap everything in Kraft paper, but I was imagining a lot of brown paper covering the table and decided a little piece of fabric would work well. |
 |
| Details – The place cards incorporated pink and green twistbands that the girls all love to wear. I ordered pink stripe straws from Shop Sweet Lulu. They arrived looking like a little gift…love that. I made Madeleine’s and put them in small cellophane bags sealed with an M sticker. I used this recipe and they were absolutely delicious! |

| Brown bags for each girl to take all of her goodies home. |
Oh my goodness, SO cute! I'm kind of dying over that fabric and the fact that it came from Walmart.
Annie, everything is darling! I love all your details … the invitations, the place cards, the fact that you made the Madeleine's and especially love the idea of framing the quotes and giving them out in such a fun and creative way.
