Birthday Celebration Creation

We are going out to dinner tonight to celebrate the birthday of a very sweet and wonderful friend of mine. I wanted to do something special for her, so I decided to make her mini cupcakes.

I added special decorations to three of the cupcakes and packaged them in a cute paint can I purchased at Michael's. I added some pink shred and cute ribbon to complete the look. I also packaged the "cupcakes to share" in Gladware and tied them with a cute ribbon. I thought it turned out so cute! I hope she likes it, and I hope it helps make her birthday special!


If you notice you can't see the cupcakes in the paint can. I forgot to take a picture of them before I put them in the mini Gladware containers. I plan on taking them out of the Gladware containers and displaying them in the paint can before I give it to her.

I love how the paint can turned out, and I thought it would be super cute way to wrap gifts or be perfect for a fun Easter basket or gift. I am definitely going to stock up on these when they go on sale! Happy Friday!!! Have a wonderful weekend!
