I love a great bargin!

One of my favorite parts of planning a party is the shopping and one of my favorite parts of shopping are the bargins.

Here are a few things I picked up for my birthday brunch....

I found the FABULOUS cupcake/cake stand at Marshalls for $49.99

I am lucky that one of my main colors is black and the brunch was scheduled after Halloween....CLEARANCE CLEARANCE CLEARANCE!!!

$24.99 - 75% = a happy dance in the aisle of Target

I found these at Dollar Tree (I love that store) and decided to use them as my favors.
Have yet to decide on a what candy I will add (pretty sure it will be some type of cocolate)


I added pink ribbon that I purchased at Hobby Lobby at 50% off
before the party I will attach thank you notes.

I love love love these (yet to decide what I will use them for)...I found them at Target they were $1.25

(found in Target's dollare spot section they were on sale for 50% off their original price of $2.50)

CLEARANCE...also found black cupcake baking cups (will be used for my grandmother's banana nut muffins) and I plan to display them on.....

lol..yes that is a bat...dont worry it will be covered up with something pink and girly. This was also found on clearance at Target for $2 I purchased they only two they had left

wow...30 is here...ahhh well let's do brunch ;-)

so I started stalking the Internet for inspiration for my 30th birthday brunch and as always...two of my favorite blogs delivered as usual. P is for Party and Hostess with the Mostess

Stay tuned for some of my DIY projects!
