What Inspired the Party's Ladybug Theme?

a Christine Petrozzo on Jul 23, 2009 at 2:45PM

Tori Spelling -- wife, best-selling author, homemaker, mompreneur and mom to two under two -- planned a ladybug-themed party for her daughter Stella's first birthday. Watch the celebration on Tori & Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood (Tuesdays at 10/9c on Oxygen). Here, Tori tells how she planned the birthday bash.

What inspired the party's ladybug theme?
We have always called Stella our little ladybug since she was born. Just like we call Liam 'monkey.' So, since I did Liam's first birthday party in a monkey theme, I wanted to follow tradition and throw Stella a ladybug party for her first. With that theme, I also thought it would be fun to make it a garden theme tea party.
