Under the Sea

Once upon a time, there was an adorable little boy who was almost turning one. His name was Yousif.

Yousif, the son of Lina and Abdulrahman, was born on August 11, 2009.

And since the birthday was approaching; his Mommy and Daddy started planning for the celebration! They chose a beachy theme: Under the Sea. Now, I had to come up with matching favours...

Blue was essential of course. It symbolizes baby boys, the beach... and the summer season!

I got glass jars and customized them (Yousif’s First Birthday / August 11, 2010). I put sand (with a hint of blue) and some stones, then placed shell and starfish candles in different shades of blue, yellow and orange inside each jar (click on the images to enlarge).

I completed the favours by adding twine ropes (very beachy) with a thank you card.

Happy First Birthday Yousif!! May you celebrate many more years among your loved ones xx
