In N Out Birthday Party

It’s official! Quinn is ONE! I still haven’t even blogged about her birth story but hey, all in good time, right?

If I’m being honest, I’ve been mentally planning this In N Out (or shall we say, “QuIn N Out”) party for years. I just never knew what the special occasion would be. When we did an In N Out theme birth announcement for Quinn, I knew then when I’d get to use it!

Our family frequents In N Out at least once a week, so going with the themed birth announcement, and then continuing the same theme throughout her monthly milestone photos was right on par with our family.

But how to do a little twist on the classic red and yellow colors? Make it pink of course! So after enlisting the help of my creative friend, a mood board was born.

We put a little twist on the traditional In N Out placemat by changing the burger story to a Quinn story, complete with all the details about this newly one year old!

I knew we had to have custom cookies for this party, and I’m so glad I ordered them. Look how cool they turned out!

My friend does custom acrylic pieces, so she made this custom cake topper that really tied it all together!

I used felt to hand-sew hamburgers and toppings, along with french fries that we served out of the little playhouse in the yard. We got some extra wrappers from In N Out so they could serve them up in the right way!

I also handmade the giant Q pinata, and put a little spin on the classic fringe by bunching together tissue paper instead of using a fringe cutter.

I printed out burger outlines on cardstock, filled little bins with all kinds of craft materials, and let the kids fill in each topping with the corresponding color crafts to make a ‘craft’ burger.

We also had shirts made that had our In N Out orders printed on them! Those were probably one of my favorite things about the party, but we didn’t get any great photos of them!
