Fall Polishes - My Favorite Brands

I will preface this with saying that I, personally, have never been one to do green or blue polish.  However, it is all the rage this fall and appears as part of the fall hues in all of my favorite brands.  I will likely stay with the rich browns, reds, and grays that I look forward to as part of my fall polish palette, but there is definitely something for everyone in these popular fall lines!

Mom's Need to Brag a Little :)

So Ben's 5th birthday was August 1, and we had a birthday party for him with, oh, about 40 of his closest friends :)  We were all set on a Spiderman birthday theme.  However, one day, a few weeks before the party, I saw him and my husband whispering about something.  Ben proceeds to come up to me with his big eyes and devilish grin and say, "Mommy, can I have and Angry Birds birthday party."  Well, considering this is BOTH his and my husband's favorite iPhone game, I knew that Dad wanted and Angry Birds birthday just as much as Ben did.  I surely couldn't disappoint my two favorite men, so both my husband and I set out looking for ideas on how to make this Angry Birds theme work.  Being an avid cupcake maker, myself, here is what I came up with.  I have never seen 40 cupcakes go so quickly!  It was a ton of fun (and quite a bit of work), but it was all worth it.  I have to give credit to the blog http://thecraftingchicks.com/, which is where we found the idea!  Of course, my son pointed out to me that we were missing the black bomb birds, and the white egg birds, but I think he will let me get away with it just this time.
