My spidey senses are tingling

Green Goblin: [lands in front of Spider-Man on a rooftop] Wake up little spider, no you're not dead, not yet, You're an amazing creature, Spider-Man. You and I are not so different.
Spider-Man: I'm not like you. You're a murderer.




This was my inspiration for our Spidey-rific table. The table is a combination for Pop art and Spiderman flare, featuring buildings, webs, spiderman and the green goblin figurines, yummy treats, a dot background and riser boxes. For the tags I ended up creating a PDF for the cupcake toppers and bottle wraps.
Contact if you are interested in the PDF.

 




I ended up recruiting the husband for the candy button backdrop but soon regretted it once I saw how close together & out of line they were but I was very grateful for the help. These bad boys took about 3-4 hours to do on the backdrop. I ended up adapting this from here. My advice when doing these, use the bottles rather than the zip lock bags.

Take a note from fashion

You've seen the explosion in stores and shows, neon. It reminds me of the 80's when I had a sideways pony tail and leggings. This trend is a great way to add some color this spring, I bet adding it with some neutrals would balance it out more.  I am seriously dying to do this color palette this spring. What do you think?
