Party Planning Love!

talk about ,
So tomorrow is my 14th birthday (huzzah!) and tonight I'm having a small sleepover party. My amazing friend Maya came home on the bus with me today to help me decorate. Can I brag?

Wow, my room is clean for once...
Amazingly set table... (It's kind of tea-party Victorian-themed, because I luv vintage stuff...)
Loveliness. (Design by me!)
Love the goodie bags...
Mmmm... frosting for the cake.... mmmm...
Not to be forward or anything... but I like a place for everything...
The invitation (a double-sided card in vellum envelope: lovely!)
Thankya, Maya! Love.

Many more photos to come tomorrow — one of the favors is me dressing people up like Victorian people and snapping a shot, so that will be fun. ;)

    Happy birthday! I can't believe you're actually my age... you do look older! (I am in 8th grade and turning 14 this school year too). Have a great party!

    Hmm my gosh Victorian? I never knew you liked Victorian. I absotively LOVE Victorian. I'll be going to the Steampunk Affair, which is a bit of a more, darker Victorian style kind of party with foods and dance and fashion/art exhibits, you should check it out to see if it's something you'd like Olive!I recieved this (I'm free:

    Happy birthday Olive Tree!

    Though I must say, I thought you were 15 or 16... not 13! I mean, you're only a little more than a year older than me... I'm 12. But I suppose you just look older for your age :-)

    Sincerely,
    Brooke

    I would love to have a party like this since I love vintage too, but my friends and I would definitely start to act too wild for this era!

    I remeber a post on your old Horsefeathers blog, talking about your birthday., ao that means that last year, you were only 12. Wow, you look much older. I always though you were 15 or 16!

    Anyway, HAPPY BIRTHDAY OLIVE TREE! I hope you have a great day. The party look s so fun ^.^

    Yeah, I thought you were 15 or 16 too! I was walking through some brush the other day and I was like, "Olive Tree won't be blogging much longer, now that she's almost 20." You look much older than 14, which is not a bad thing!!
