There are a million ways to make someone feel special on their birthday, many of which don’t cost very much. For those who are looking to surprise a birthday boy or girl from the moment they wake up and look outside can do so with a special birthday yard sign! See how to create a paper plate birthday yard sign using this tutorial!

If you’re new here they you might not be aware of my big love of paper plates.

I’ve used paper plates in dozens of party backdrops, as countdowns, garlands and now as yard decorations! Since the month of April included three birthdays of local family or friends who self quarantining like the rest of the country, I decided to help make their day a little more special with a paper plate birthday yard sign!

These yard signs were all made possibly to my overstock supply of paper plates from past party assignments, some metallic poster board, these 12″ wooden dowels and my Cricut Maker!

A Cricut machine isn’t necessary for this project, but I was able to easily cut out the letters for 3 different birthday people in under an hour using it so it was definitely a plus!

I glued all the letters on and let them dry completely.

I hot glued a wood dowel to the back of each paper plate.

On their birthday, I texted a fellow housemate to keep them away from the front window as I inserted the wood dowels into the ground to spell out the special birthday message. Tip: bring tape and extra dowels in case any break when trying to put them in harder ground!

In the end this paper plate birthday yard sign took up the yard with a fun message put out for the special birthday boy or girl! Even though we weren’t able to celebrate in person, I hope they each know someone cared about them from afar!

Hey guys! It's been a while since I've done a #fri Hey guys! It's been a while since I've done a #fridayintroductions so here it goes!
.
I'm Tara. 🙋‍♀️
.
I prefer M&Ms to "fancy" chocolate brands, room temperature water to ice cold, and Gerber daisies to roses. 🌺
.
I love browsing at stores more than buying, am always a sucker for a play on words, and I love me a google doc spreadsheet for just about anything. 🤓
.
According to my hubby who has known me almost half my life, I am not a fan of loud air noises (fans/wind etc), water blasted on high, or closing drawers/cabinets fully. 🙈 
.
I also don't drink coffee or tea (despite my brand name!) and at 39 years old, am currently on the hunt for cute adult pjs vs wearing the old tshirts from high school to bed. 
.
My girls share a birthday 2 years apart (#nehilbirthdaytwins). Yes they love it now because they don't know any different and they pretty much share friends anyway so we just do one party a year! 
.
Thanks for following along with my feed full of crafts, parties, home decor and parenting. 
.
Leave me a comment and let me know where you're from! I'm a Jersey girl, born, raised and raising!

I know many think of it as the twisted backdrops for parties in the 80s, but I've used it in lots of other ways! How do you like the black crepe paper spiderweb I made for this Spiderman party I styled a few years back?

Yesterday I got my 2nd shot of Pfizer at one of those mega vaccination sites and was thoroughly impressed at how smoothly it ran and how well behaved and patient all the attendees were. Go science!

I haven't styled many parties outside mostly becau I haven't styled many parties outside mostly because of the elements in NJ, but I fondly look back at this camping themed one styled at our last house. The green trees in back were the perfect backdrop for this outdoor adventure! 
.
Swipe for some ideas that would be great for a great outdoors themed party or a themed get together at the campground this summer!

Not only am I an etsy seller, I'm also an etsy buy Not only am I an etsy seller, I'm also an etsy buyer and supporter! When trying to figure out what to put in these frames in my new bathroom, I debated about designing something myself. After a quick search through Etsy I found @ateliercartouche and fell in love with Jennifer's watercolor style botanical prints!
.
I reached out about a custom size for the #gifted @custompictureframes frames I already owned and Jennifer worked with me to create a custom order that was easy for me to print and frame at home. I LOVE how they bring life into this space and I highly recommend her shop for digital art for your home! 
.
See all the details on my bathroom remodel including more info on these prints over on my blog --> https://spotofteadesigns.com/modern-half-bathroom-remodel-the-full-reveal/
I just introduced Derek to The Greatest Showman la I just introduced Derek to The Greatest Showman last night so it's only fitting I start this post with "this is the moment you've all been waiting for" (woahhh ohhh). It's our half bathroom reveal day! 
.
Swipe to see where we started with the weirdest spacing, a small crooked pedestal sink and basic builder grade everything. My handy hubby (along with my handy brother-in-law Frank) transformed this space into this modern farmhouse style that's now my second favorite room in the house. (Second only to my office, of course)
