Happy Leap Year!

Happy Leap Year, especially to any leap year babies out there! Wouldn't it be weird to be born on a day that doesn't normally exist? Anyway, if any of you are in or near Pasadena, California, I hope you are planning on attending the Utterly Engaged Leap Year Remix party and Design Challenge tonight! It looks like it will be an amazing time, and I'm so sad I can't be there to see it all in person, especially the design challenge part of it. Some of the inspiration boards put together by the design teams are beautiful! I especially like the Mexico and India board submitted by design team #6 (the painted elephant is beautiful!!), but they are all amazing!



Aside from having what will surely be a great time, the first 100 people through the door will get an awesome swag bag including a goodie bag put together by yours truly (with significant help from my mom!). The colors of the party are neon pink and gray, so I put together goodie bags with gray and hot pink wood heart tags and mini clothespins, silver metallic and neon pink heart stickers, and a hot pink chevron baby bag with custom stained hot pink wood shred filler. We were up until 2 in the morning staining the tags and wood filler (and I almost caught our gas stove on fire while trying to use the warming drawer to dry the wood filler!), and I kept saying to my mom that I sure do hope they like them!
