Candles Worthy of that Special Birthday Cake
I tend to spend so much time worrying about the gory details of my kids' parties that the birthday candles are the last thing that I think about. In fact, one year, I almost forgot them. Bad bad mommy.

So, if you've got a kiddo with a birthday on the horizon, snag one of these awesome number candles from Modern Lola. They're a welcome change from those plain old number candles, which I almost hate to stick in my very carefully hand baked birthday cake. You know, by my local bakery, of course.

And since we wouldn't expect you to pay shipping for a $1.95 candle, use it as an excuse to click around Modern Lola's fantastic offerings which include plenty of our favorite picks all in one cool place. -Kristen
