Aaliya's Trollstice


Aaliya Sayde Morgan

1st Birthday party October 28, 2017 in San Jose, CA 
A Trollstice Celebration

So I came up with the idea to incorporate halloween with her favorite movie, Trolls!  I had so many ideas and wanted to DIY as many as possible.  As with any party I did not have everything go perfect, not even close, but I was so supported by friends and family and it turned out well.  Aaliya was able to interact and actually enjoy her party and that is most important.  So my cousin and I were Satin and Chenille (the twins), Eric was Branch (sad/mean branch), Aaliya was Poppy, and Amaya was Lady Glitter Sparkles aka Idget lol.  

Check out the photos and you will see what a blast I had coming up with ideas and making it come to life!

A big thank you to my daughters' godmother, Devonna, who crocheted her outfit, Eric's Branch Best, and my skirt!  She nailed it.  She also perfected the centerpieces (poppy head, branch head, satin and chenille head, and DJ Suki head).  She helped me with every piece of this party and again worked with what my vision was to ensure I had what I needed!  She is the true artist!  https://www.willisandcro.com/ - check her out on Etsy too! 

Another big shout out to Christina and Lisha who painted me like Satin, Amaya like Lady Glitter Sparkles, and completed Eric, and Devonna's faces!  The lashes she chose, the colors, the glitter sparkles on my cheeks were exact and perfect!  She is a MUA but she just killed with facepaint and makeup!  https://www.chrisxbeauty.com/

Definitely my fave photo of the party!  (Good looking out Shanice)












The Alice and Shanice Chronicles - another one in the books!  When something works, keep it going.  Shanice is an absolute godsend.  She helped so much the day of and was clearly behind the scenes taking great pictures and I am so grateful.  


Gots to have a group photo!

This is the photo table.  It includes a scrapbook, instax camera, pen and photo booth props.
