a little announcement… and a big giveaway

shiny happy sprinkles giveawayWe are so excited for today, friends. And a little bit nervous. But mostly excited. See, we’ve been working and working on something and we’re excited (and, like I said, a bit nervous) to finally share it with you.

shiny happy sprinkles blog intro

Jordan’s January visit

Funny story- this little endeavor was put in motion when Jordan came to stay for a month and we threw four parties in the span of twenty two days. Between those four and the parties since (and the ones on our calendars), our party que is full to the brim.

four parties by kojoInstead of turning kojo into a parties-only space for the next little while (we love the DIY and sewing projects and can’t imagine letting that part go), we decided to give the parties their own ‘venue’ so to speak-

a blog called Shiny Happy Sprinkles.

The space is already full of DIYs and festivities (including the Love You to the Moon and Back shower, a $2 White Fringed Backdrop and more), and we have some serious goodness on the docket as well.

shiny happy sprinklesAnd in celebration of this shiny, happy new adventure, we are giving away some of our very favorite party goodies today. We could sing the praises of every item in the picture (especially the white cake stand and ohmygoodness the Birthday Cake Oreos) and can’t wait to send them to a couple of you.

    Well… I’m torn. I’m going to MAKE the white fringed background. Will be perfect for taking shop pics…

    But… those Peeps cupcake toppers? Every year we host a HUGE halloween blowout for kidlet. (He’ll be 13 this year… 8 years now!)

    This will take the place of the more childish cupcakes I’ve always made that he told me were embarrassing now…. and still let me decorate them! Peep bats and Cats anyone? hehe
