you can never have too many flowers…in my opinion!  and at a potting party it stands to reason that this unofficial rule would definitely apply!

you already saw the beautiful Fun To Eat Fruit apples scattered about the tables…but they were just too cute to not send more home with guests.  so a pyramid of printed apples was waiting to get “picked”

piling them on a cupcake stand was a fun way to display them!

guests could grab a few to take and share with their families!  who wouldn’t smile after receiving one of these?

    I love love this! I’d be in heaven to attend a plant potting party. The details are so much fun. Love the printed apples and that floral banner is just amazing. From a distance it looks like it’s printed. I can’t believe the detail on those little paper flowers.
