The Luau


We had a Luau!!  
It was a party with mixed emotions. We had a lot of fun decorating and making food but the actual party was not what we thought it was going to be. I still want to show you all the goodies we put together!

Yes, those are a washer/dryer set disguised as a table with a skirt! I made pulled chicken in the croc pot and we put it on fluffy hamburger buns. We also had fruit salad and chips.

The lanterns: we were very pleased with how they turned out! The party was pushed up to 12 so we didn't need to light them . They still looked great!

Above is our picnic table that we put a plastic table cloth on with bananna leaves taped to the side for extra ambiance .

Our tiki men ( their were 2) they coveted the awning posts so well I might just leave them up!

Our beach cupcakes. These were a picture from Pinterest that we found and liked! My sweet daughter helped me with every step of them !! 

Our picnic bench is old and we have never sanded or weathered it. Sometimes it pokes and gives splinters. I took an old comforter and some fabric to cover the bench part so people could sit comfortably! They were a hit!!

Any occasion where flowers are involved hair clips are involved too!! These were the ones I made for the guests! The bottom left was for the little girls, bottom right was for the birthday lady , and the top were for everyone else! We had a lot of fun putting this all together !! The little kids loved the water balloons!! All on all it was a successful luau! 

Hope you enjoyed it!!
