Late last year, a little girl turned six and got the party of her dreams. Thanks to her (very very) creative mommy Sheila, Sky celebrated in true Frozen fashion - outfit, snowflakes, Olaf and all! ... Continue Reading
Emma’s Donut Party
One of the first DIY party projects I featured in the Homemade Parties Instagram feed was of Nica's hand-drawn paper hats for her daughter's birthday party. Not only did she make party hats, she also made buntings to match...and yes, also hand-drawn! I've been a fan ever since and I was itching to feature one of her parties in the blog. I love how she and her family stay true ... Continue Reading
Chantel’s Spa Party
For her 7th birthday, Chantel thought of having a spa party to celebrate with some of her closest friends.

If we have hands on moms, then we can definitely have ... Continue Reading

Kendra’s Pink and Lime Green Birthday Party
Its one thing to DIY your baby's party, but to DIY amidst news of a Public Storm Signal No. 3 is another! Its a good thing that this supermom started her preparations months before her baby's birthday, starting with the rosettes that she'd patiently make on weekends or weekdays after work. So even if little Kendra's birthday party fell on the day a typhoon hit their province, ... Continue Reading

My Laces and Pearls Bachelorette
This time two years ago, my girls were busy planning an awesome awesome bridal shower. Yes, no typo there. It was so awesome I had to write the word twice. I've known these ladies for over 20 years and feel so lucky to be surrounded by women who readily run to you with a box of tissue in times of heartaches (sometimes with Johnny and Jack in tow), or who will be the first to ...

Staniss’ Pinoy Fiesta Party
"No time to siesta, it's time to fiesta!" is what Staniss' invites promised to his guests! And it sure looked like a fun fiesta filled with old-school party elements like printed balloons, hotdogs on sticks, and banderites. How about parlor games like pabitin, stop dance and Trip to Jerusalem? That sounds like fun! We don't see these in parties often anymore so I'm sure you'll ... Continue Reading

And beautiful it was! Decked with picket ... Continue Reading
Guia’s Breakfast at Tiffany’s Birthday Party
And i said what about Breakfast at Tiffany's? And well, that's just what we got! This overseas DIY party is so elegantly pretty, you'd be surprised its a party for a one year old!
