I had this idea in my head for my daughter's one-year cake smash for the longest time. I found the fabric for the romper first and based everything around that. I wanted it to be sweet and vintage, with light blues and creams and florals and a white cake... 

I sewed the romper with a pillowcase-style neckline, then used one of my great-grandma's old broken earrings as a center for the flower and some vintage elastic lace for the band. My mom helped me find some coordinating papers for the paper fans (which took a LOT longer to make then you think they should!) and she made the cute big chunky necklace. I piped the cake the night before and the only thing I wish I'd done differently for this shoot was take the cake out of the fridge sooner so that the frosting could soften up and make more  of a mess! Oh well. Still turned out pretty cute. :) 

I can't believe my Maylee is a year old. Happy birthday baby girl!
