Last weekend, I had the honor of throwing a baby shower for a dear friend. We just had a small girlie get together with desserts and cheeses, the mommy-to-be's favorite foods. Utilizing my entertaining space as best I could, I used a side kitchen counter/bar area for the cheeses and a buffet area for the dessert bar. Since the shower was quite small, for favors I decided to do a very small candy bar. My favorite part of the candy bar were these little hershey kiss stickers I created for the bottoms of the candies. They are all the rage on blogs these day, and I wanted to give it a try. With the right materials, it was easy! In fact, I redesigned my circles and am providing some with my logo on them for the bridal shows this week. Check out some of the pictures from the shower...
Here are the kiss stickers. I used two different designs one "baby" and one "g" for the mom's last initial.
Here is the dessert bar with small frames denoting the different desserts and circles dangling from the mirror as a backdrop.

I have to admit: I was eager to have macarons on the dessert table. However, even though I used a cooking scale and was extremely detailed about every step of the process, I didn't feel they turned out as best as possible. Next time I will definitely hit up the local bakery for those instead.
