Aren’t polka dots just the cheeriest ever? With a trip to the supermarket, you can put together such a cute and happy polka dot themed party by focusing on all of the polka dot offerings readily available at the store.
Lollipops make such simple, cute polka dot cake toppers:
Gigantic wafers from the Mexican grocery store make a yummy, delicate cake when layered with slightly sweetened airy buttercream:
Dotty candies make cute table decorations and cupcake toppers:
Tiny dotty sprinkles make the table even more festive:
Mini cake stands, a gift from my friend, Serina(yes we have the same name!), are fun to place at everyone’s table setting along with simple colorful plates, napkins, tableware, and cups from the grocery store:
IT'S ME, SERENA!
I bounced through the first years of my life in a hippie gypsy wagon, hand-built by my father, wandering the back roads of the U.S., Canada and Mexico. My family eventually settled into a tiny cabin in the woods on property that was once inhabited by Native American Indians.
I spent my childhood days searching for arrowheads, teaching myself to sew on a treadle sewing machine and to bake in a wood-burning stove, with no running water, refrigeration, or electricity in our home. My family lived frugally and early on, inspired by my parent’s thriftiness and style, I gained a knack for thrifty creativity and turning ordinary objects into something useful. And I dreamed of the home I would create for my own family someday.
Now I’m married to my husband, Colin, and our children are all grown. After 24 years of producing The Farm Chicks Vintage & Handmade Fair, I'm spending time visiting other markets around the world. You can watch episodes of Serena Goes to Market here.
I share more about my life story from time to time, here on my blog. You can also find me on Instagram, and Facebook.
