Let’s start with her outfit. My sweet mother-in-law helped me make Audrey’s prairie bonnet from a pattern I found at the fabric store. She actually helped me make 9 bonnets so that all the guests at the party would have a bonnet to take home with them! I’m no seamstress, so this is NOT something I could have done on my own. The shirt and skirt were found at Gymboree and totally had a prairie look. And don’t forget the 2 braids or “plaits.”

Native American Indian Birthday Party
My youngest daughter was an American Indian last Halloween. So we already had the beginnings of a great birthday party theme.

Rainbow Birthday Party (Joan Walsh Anglund)
![]() |
My inspiration for this birthday party was the amazing artwork of Joan Walsh Anglund. Her artwork is immediately identifiable – she always draws children without noses and mouths. You can find biographical information about this wonderful artist at http://members.shaw.ca/jwamail/. |
I found these never-opened paper plates and napkins in an attic of a friend of my mother’s. I kept them for 8 years until I was inspired to use them for my younger daughter’s third birthday. I also had a few small books of JWA art and poetry that I had picked up over the years. Her illustrations of little children have always touched me and aroused that nostalgia within me for anything from my own childhood.
