Milk & Cookies Party & Baby Shower

Dianne V. is an event coordinator who created this adorable party for her two-year old daughter. Centerpieces were jars of chocolate, oatmeal, and sugar cookies! Surrounding each jar were photo boxes made of assorted pictures of the birthday girl’s first year of life. The perfect backdrop behind the cake table is of the birthday girl. Dianne made this custom tiled image for the party. The party colors were brown, yellow and white with polka dot decor. Individual sized milk (whole and chocolate) and brown bags of cookies were given to guests as favors. More photos can be seen on her blog Color Blind Productions. Here's another adorable Milk & Cookies Party: Brit from Most Likely Late came up with this clever milk and cookie baby shower. Brit calls it "Milk and Cookies for the Prego" - loving that:) The labels made for the cookie jars were brown with white writing. Assorted brown and white papers were used inside the cookie jars. Brit's tip: "Make the cookies in advance. Each cookie jar contains about 5-7 dozen cookies, so call in for reinforcements. There were plenty of helpers on this one, I just sent out recipes of the cookies I wanted to display and we each made a couple. We all used the same size ice cream scoop so they were all about the same size."

Milk jugs with various milks...
Favor bags were brown with a cute tag - guests could fill up their bags with cookies!

  1. Love these ideas...I've already forwarded the link to a dozen of my friends who will love your site.

    I was bummed though that Dianne (who made the adorable custom tiled image) doesn't seem to be selling this service in her Etsy shop any long.
