Words by: Jessica Hong, :: Aden's Mommy.
Like most mom’s I didn’t know where to start. But since my baby was a boy, I started with the color blue. I was lucky enough to be in Korea before his big birthday, so during my trip I got his banner and party clothes there. I had countless hours on the internet looking for images to give me some ideas on what I wanted for his birthday.
I started to make his dol towers with the help of some of my friends, I took four round paper mache and tape them together using masking tape, and then I draw out the image that I wanted and started to hot glue the beans.
I purchase the little train in front from Michaels and just painted them at home.
The very cute Pororo photo stand was made by my best friend as part of my son’s birthday gift.

Here is a list of vendor’s that I used
for his birthday.
Venue- Vision Art Hall, Koreatown,Ca | Flower- La Flur by Tracy

Balloons- Magic Balloon School | Rice Cake- Nakwon Rice Bakery

One word frees us of all the weight and pain of life--that word is love.
