Favors!

Well, I am about to spoil an AMAZING surprise for anyone coming to my birthday party at Tory Burch next week (if this includes you STOP reading!), but I feel like I just won the lottery and CANNOT resist!
When I won the party at Tory Burch this past Fall I just knew I wanted to use it to celebrate my 25th birthday. I thought LONG and HARD about the invites and favors; I wanted them to be amazing and coordinate with the overall theme. In the end I ended up making my own invites. I used magenta and orange paper, monkey stickers and stuffed these in silver addressed, navy envelopes. I must say I was quite pleased with the end result. Then came time to order favors. I have been planning on making cake balls (of course- no birthday is now complete without them!) and coordinating their decoration colors with the invites, but I wanted a little something else as well. That is where A Dozen Eggs comes in.
I won a giveway from A Dozen Eggs way back when (when I still only had two blog readers, mother and bff N) and fell in love with Laura's darling cookies. Not only did they taste amazing (they use all natural ingredients), they are affordable and each cookie is a work of art!
I had a vision of EXACTLY what I wanted my cookies to look like: pink bags with the orange TB logo. I emailed ADE (just this past Friday) and also spoke to the wonderful Dave on the phone (on Monday). He jotted my idea down and sent me a photo of what he and Laura had in mind and then got to work. Today, I got a call that my cookies were being shipped out, but if I needed to see a photo before they arrived I could head over to the blog.
Of course I could NOT wait...

When I saw the cookies I almost fell out of my chair. They EXCEEDED my EVERY expectation, they literally are too perfect for words! AMAZING!

Look at the details! As I told the manager of the local Tory store, the cookies match the quality of the store's products!

These are just stunning. Everything I hoped for and more. The colors are dead on and the bag looks like I could pick it up and pack it full just like my purse!

If you are ever in the market for cookies you MUST contact the fabulous Laura and Dave at A Dozen Eggs. They really can do ANYTHING!
