Our first birthday clients really are the cutest 😍😍😍 #rekindledesigns #rekindleflorals
Any time is boba time. Am I right?? When I have to share with the girls, which is usually 90% of the time since David doesn’t like to share 😅, I get a fruity slush. But when I don’t have to share, it’s milk tea or cookies and cream~

This boba bar was a special treat for both the adults and the kids at jukimpark’s baby girl’s first birthday party. For the adults, we had vanilla latte and matcha pistachio latte, and for the kids, we had caffeine-free honeydew milk and salted caramel milk! Yummm, which boba drink are you?? I could go for the matcha pistachio latte right now!

Evelyn’s first birthday was all about combining her mom’s love for fashion and modern art, which came alive in this backdrop. We mixed watercolor painting (by yours truly and amyleepaints) and fresh flowers (individually placed by hanabyhannah) which was my version of a modern floral art piece. Thanks to all the amazing vendors who made this vision come alive! 📷: sincerelyso and a big thank you to my dear nanceeezy for taking on the coordinating, and making sure everything went smoothly!

Both of my girls wore hanboks (traditional korean attire) for their first birthday parties, before I knew how to make royal icing cookies. So I was so excited to make this girl hanbok “sister” cookie. One of the last sets I am making before I semi-retire from taking orders. The real birthday boy’s cookies are coming soon!
So this happened on Saturday. I had essentially a week to plan and design so it was an insane and intense week and I am still recovering but the payoff was 👍🏻. It wouldn't have been possible without the vendors who pulled through, thank you x 💯. And of course, thank you to the uncles (Joe, Josh, Sam) who watched K all day, and Deborah for assisting me. Seriously, it takes a village and to all my amazing help and vendors, you guys are THE BEST!! Now this mama is off to some much needed pampering time but can't wait to tackle the exciting personal project taking place this week!

I think hanbok cookies are becoming a new fave of mine! These were inspired by the hanbok little Jarena will be wearing 🥰

All proceeds for this set went to support naacp - an organization dedicated to eliminating race-based discrimination and ensuring the health and well-being of all persons.
Words cannot express how thankful I am to my team of vendors that I consider family. Even though they are losing sleep due to my events, while taking care of mommy duties, and finishing up orders for other events...they still manage to pack me a snack, and send me daily texts reminders to eat and drink water, staying late at the office to make sure to squeeze in my orders, and ask if they can run any errands for me even though their to-do list seems endless. Thank you keeping me alive and well this weekend. And to my beautiful team who took care of my events with so much love and care. I got through 5 events because of you guys. #neveragainlol

✍️ Il Dol: il primo compleanno coreano che parla di vita, speranza e futuro

📌 Come si festeggia?

La famiglia prepara una tavola ricca e colorata, il dol-sang, con elementi simbolici:

🍚 tteok (dolci di riso) → fortuna e prosperità
🍎 frutta e pietanze abbondanti → ricchezza e buona salute
👘 hanbok tradizionale → identità e radici
🕯 candele → luce sul futuro
🎎 oggetti per il Dol-jabi, il rito più atteso

Ed è proprio il Dol-jabi a rendere tutto magico.
Sul tavolo vengono posti diversi oggetti ─ ognuno con un significato.
Il bambino sceglie quello che lo attira, e quella scelta diventa un augurio per il suo destino.

📜 penna → studio e intelligenza
💰 soldi → prosperità economica
🧵 filo → lunga vita
🎤 microfono → talento artistico
⚽ palla → sportivo
📖 libro → sapienza e conoscenza

È un gioco? Sì.
Ma è anche un abbraccio della famiglia verso il futuro: qualsiasi strada sceglierai, noi saremo lì a sostenerti.

💬 Vi sarebbe piaciuto partecipare a un Dol?
Che oggetto avreste preso voi da bambini, o quale fareste scegliere a KLT per il suo futuro?
