Spot of Tea Designs’s Top 10 Posts of 2018

Blogger, Lifestyle

The end of the year is always the time to reflect on what happened, as well as, look ahead. 2018 was a good one for my family and me, with lots of big changes, including a new house, move from preschool to kindergarten and a first family of 4 trip to Disney World! I had lots of opportunities to stage some fun party themes which were apparently a hit with some of you too!  Let’s take a stroll back through 2018 and see the top 10 posts!

Top 10 Blog Posts of 2018 | spotofteadesigns.com
Elf on the Shelf activity - secret message free printable | spotofteadesigns.com

My Elf on the Shelf Secret Message Printable went live in November but surprisingly was the number one new post I launched in 2018! This was one of the Elf on the Shelf Ideas for a 5 year old which was also a top post of the year! I hope lots of kids had fun filling it out to discover this message from their elf! (and PS I already have more free printables planned out for next Christmas!)

Easter Egg hunt Disney World Reveal with free printable | spotofteadesigns.com

In January we shared our Disney World trip plans to my girls and this photo of them and the letterboard became my number one photo ever on my instagram account! While the reaction wasn’t what we expected (the activity of the reveal seemed more exciting than the prize) I can tell you the girls both had a great time in February!

Dinosaur Party Printables - free to download for personal use | spotofteadesigns.com

You guys were as crazy about dinosaurs and free printables as I thought you would be! This was the number 2 post of 2018!

Mother's Day Gift Idea: Digital silhouette portrait of all the grandkids | spotofteadesigns.com

I had created this Digital Silhouette Portrait Gift for my mom of her 5 grandkids and then added it to my Etsy shop. I had the pleasure of completing a bunch of Mother’s Day gifts from Etsy shoppers shortly there after! My shop 2 months old at that point which gave me more motivation to add additional designs. I was so honored with all those who had me create holiday gifts of their kids this Christmas.

Cactus string art with free printable template | spotofteadesigns.com

After doing the seahorse string art for Hailey’s bedroom, I had been itching to do another one and this May I shared this cactus string art design, as part of a succulents filled Mother’s Day brunch I styled for Wholesale Party Supplies. Grab the free printable and learn how to make this for your mom!

Donut Party Printables - free for personal use! | spotofteadesigns.com

When everyone was posting their Whole 30 recipe I was telling everyone to eat more hole foods with this fun donut party complete with free printables!

Beauty and the Beast Party Hacks | spotofteadesigns.com

Party planning doesn’t have to be heavy on the budget, especially with fun party hacks! Take a look at these ones I shared for a Beauty and the Beast themed party, complete with a free printable for that banner on the backdrop.

Adult birthday party favors - kissing the decade goodbye. Free printables available! | spotofteadesigns.com

Kiss your 30s, 40s, 50s, or 60s goodbye with these free printables and a bunch of Hershey’s kisses.

Purse scavenger hunt game with free printable - great for baby showers and bridal showers | spotofteadesigns.com

Those in charge of bridal or baby showers this year must’ve loved this purse scavenger hunt as it was one of the top posts of the year! Pin it for later as I’ve played at several showers and it’s always a crowd pleaser.

7 ways i'm a bad mom - a humorous look at motherhood | spotofteadesigns.com

I hoped other moms could relate to the 7 days I’m a bad mom post and apparently you did!
