real parties: school is cool

2.17.2011
This charming take on the schoolhouse birthday theme was created by Grace Happens for her son’s 3rd birthday.  She drew her inspiration from the fact that he had just started preschool, and added vintage details like map pinwheels on the party hats, simple flash cards to share party messages, number cookies and brown paper bags for candy, labeled with classic schoolhouse print. The kids also got to bring home inflatable globes as favors- a clever little touch!
