The little straw...

This may be the hardest entry EVER!

I have officially closed shop. (heart breaking)

Yup, Little Shindigs is no more.

As much as I have tried to juggle everything, CPN, and The Knock-Knock Factory have finally trumped Little Shindigs.

I tried so hard to make it work but considering I haven't blogged since we announced the Fiesta we hosted for CPN, I doubt anyone would believe me.

I will be dedicating all my efforts to my etsy shop- The Knock-Knock Factory and to growing CPN. I have every intention of blogging again (someday) in a different capacity and will be back to let you know when that happens. I will keep the blog open bc I cant bare to see it REALLY go away, hope you will understand. (sobbing)

If you would like to stay in touch...you can follow me here. Hope you will.

Dear Family,

Cross one off the bucket list, I am walking in Memphis!

Yes, I took a picture at the gates. I know you are so Jelly!!!

I am having a blast with my host family this week. They have a HUGE dog but he is just the sweetest

Brittany is due very soon and I am so happy to been able to spend this time with her. She is prettier than in her pictures, if you can believe that and don't EVEN get me started on her dimples. Now I'm Jelly:(

. 

Days are spent talking about parties, nights spent eating Chocolate Peanut Butter Ice Cream and watching Housewives. BTW...did you see the OC reunion special? DRA-MA!!!!

Well gotta go...Grey and I have a play date! I will chat you later.

xoxo

Long Time, No SEA

{Long Time}

I am a big, fat, liar. I meant VERY much to start blogging more regularly (clears throat). 

Easier said then done. Sorry dudes. 

However, I am happy to report that the Factory is alive and well. I have been lucky to receive lots of  fabulous feedback on some of the latest pieces and have been getting a surge of orders for some pretty fabulous parties coming up;)

Here are a few of the latest:

this was a Surfs up party...you can see the full recap of this little RAD party here.

  A Vintage Rockets and Robots Party....out of this world! See it here.

A Mario Kart Party

a close up here and HERE. :)

A Memorial Day BBQ and B-day Party as seen here.

A little bedroom wreath for a girly girl

This one is on its way to a fabulous little party on the other side of the country.

There is a few more that I am not suppose to share with you just yet but cannot wait till they are "revealed".

{No Sea}

Off Topic-I am planning myself a little shindig! My birf-day is coming up this month and my DH and I are gonna throw our first clambake for a few of our close frineds! We live in the "Valley" so there will be "no SEA" but it will still be fab. Hope to keep you updated!

BTW- I am going Gidget Style.

Tootles:)

Totally Tubular {the knock-knock files}

It was a birthday party for Madison Bleu and I was lucky enough to be a very small part in this ode to all things 80's. Dude, they even had an arcade!Totally Tubular.

Theresa Who? {Knock-Knock Files}

Theresa... FLY in this Party!!!!!

For the few that may have been hiding under a rock lately, Kristy unveiled her Fly Guy Party last week and it is all the RAGE!

...and yes, I think I am pretty FLY to have a Knock-Knock included in the latest unique and uber original fest.

This last picture is one of my favorites. Can you believe she tie-dyed coffee filters?! Crazy Cool, right?!
