It seems a bit frivolous to write about a Parisian party at a time when the world is battling COVID-19, but I guess we all need a few distractions to get us through this time.
I’ll write about all the party details in my next post, but today I’m sharing the details of the invitations. I really wanted to have a cooking party and Harriet was set on a French theme, so I decided to combine the two to have a French patisserie party.
I used this tutorial to make the whisks pictured. For the written invitation I used some photocopies from Harriet’s picture books about Paris and glued them onto shipping tags with some stickers and embellishments I had left over from my brief flirtation with scrapbooking. I was really happy with the way they turned out and the kids loved them too!
Hope is really important in tough times like we’re experiencing at the moment. The Psalms are really comforting to read in times of trouble. Praying Psalm 91 over my family at the moment:
Because you have made the Lord, who is my refuge, even the Most High, your dwelling place, no evil shall befall you, nor shall any plague come near your dwelling; For He shall give His angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways. In their hands they shall bear you up, lest you dash your foot against a stone.
