    I knew this party had to be fabulous when I saw "Kate Spade"! Although it will be a while before my oldest grandchildren graduate, I'm pinning lots of these ideas for down the road. My 12 year old granddaughter just "graduated" from grammar school and will be a "middle schooler" next fall….seems like she just started first grade!

    What a great party! Congrats to your daughter! I love that you were able to bring it inside – we would not have had room in our messy garage ha! Love the 'curtains' – what a great idea!

    All so cute and full of great ideas! The only thing I could think while reading, though, was my garage would NEVER be clean enough to host a party in! 😉

      Ha! We did have to do some cleaning and organizing to get this place in shape! Hoping it stays this way for a little while! 🙂

    You have been a life saver for me! I will be having my granddaughter's graduation party on the 11th of June using a Kate Spade theme and that's how I came upon your wonderful blog. My granddaughter is Abigail Rose and I can't wait to show her the neat party you gave for your gorgeous Abigail.
    I was wondering if you could give me some insight on how you made Abigail's sign with her name and the lovely flowers. I've been looking all over the internet for clip art like the flowers you used and haven't been able to find anything. I would greatly appreciate any info you could share with me.
    Again, thank you so much for the lovely free pintables you so graciously shared with all of us.
    Blessings,
    Debbie Hutchinson

    You did a fantastic job! Did you use a special paper for the water bottle wraparounds?

      Thank you! Glad you like it. That sign was actually digitally designed and printed for me. I can email you a contact where you could order one of these if you are interested. Also, just FYI, these printables have been updated for 2019 and they are on the blog now!
