Tool Birthday Cake

 

The tools and paper are made out of fondant. I found the message sign at Walmart. 

Harry Potter Birthday Party

 For Rachel's 11th birthday, she chose a Harry Potter theme. This is the cake she designed...The bottom is house color fondant. The top is piped with a leaf tip. I used fondant for the eyes and beak. The wand is a chocolate wand I bought and the snitch is made from a Ferrero Rocher. 

The charcuterie board was inspired by the house colors. 

I used edible markers for designing the character marshmallows. 

Under each sugar cone I put house color M&Ms. When a person uncovered their color, they put on the matching house color tie. 

For the ties, I drew a tie shape on a piece of cardstock and then traced the shape on colored felt. I cut them out and hot glued stripes on it and hot glued a safety pin on the back. 

Rachel's acceptance letter was in the bottom envelope. I just used a piece of string to create this fireplace display. 

At the end of the night we practiced our potion making.
