Please don't forget your counters and tables in the kitchen. Unless you have a faux birthday cake you will probably need to decorate your tables untill the day of the birthday...

• Fill your fruit bowl with lots of curling ribbons, and then fill it with fruit for an interesting look.
• Use lots of bright colored single flowers in bud vases. Place them in a single file order, down the center of the table or group them together.
• Add lots of candles in bright colored containers.
• Place a fabric remnent on the table for the table cloth
• Fill bowls or wine glasses with paper noise makers, birthday confetti, or even birthday picks that you find at party stores or dollar stores.

For now the table will be fun untill the cake arrives...Oh how I hate the wait...
