i got these flower pots on orientaltrading.com. they came in white, with an insert that you color {that said, i love you mom, for mothers day}. i took out the inserts and used one as a pattern to make my own strawberry shortcake insert for the kids to color! i took a coloring book and shrunk down a few images to cut and clip :). i then spray painted the inside part of the pot red. they turned out really cute.

Strawberry Shortcake Invitation
Vintage Strawberry Shortcake Birthday Party
Strawberry Shortcake 3rd Birthday Party
So. Many. Cute. Ideas. My head is exploding! I'm working on my daughter's 5th birthday party right now, and just love what you did for this party. The lemonade in jam jars – what size jars are those? 32oz?
You have me soo many great ideas. My daughter is turning 3 in march and wants a strawberry shortcake party. I was wondering where you got the pink and red pom poms that are hanging on the tree. Those are great party decorations!
Thank you :). I made them. Search 'how to make Martha pom pom flowers' in google & instructions will come up :).
What wonderful decorations. You did an incredible job. Would you please let me know where you found the templete for the invitation? Thanks.

WOW!!!THANKS FOR SHARING I LOVE IT..
I LOVE your ideas and I realllly want to use your strawberry shortcake idea but wonder if my daughter's birthday is in december?? what things should I do then since we can't do the plant idea or the lemonade idea since its too summery? any suggestions?
ksuch,
thank you! you could have the kids help you make homemade strawberry jam! there are a lot of jam recipes that are pretty easy. you could get cute jam bottles to put the jam in for them to take home.
Would love to know how you did the invites! Such a precious party! What a blessed little girl :o)
Hi, love everything that you did!! Where did you get th pots that you were plantng in?? That is a great idea!
Where can I get the Strawberry Shortcake cake topper you used for the cake?
