Urban Craft's 1st Birthday: The Popcorn Bar!

{From The Party Dress}
 A birthday bash wouldn't be a birthday bash without some awesome snacks, right? In addition to the awesome food vendors we'll have at the show on Saturday (including Hummingbird Chocolate, Totally Squared, Koko Chocolates, Red Door Provisions, Bake Mob and Sweet Secrets), we decided to put together a gourmet popcorn bar for all of you lovely people to snack on while you're shopping! The popcorn bar is free, but we'll also be accepting donations for the Ottawa Food Bank should you feel so inclined to give back in exchange for your de-lish snack!

While we're keeping the exact details about our popcorn bar under wraps until the big reveal at the show on Saturday, we thought we'd share some of the inspiration we stumbled upon while putting our bar together! A preview:

An adorable display & toppings galore! {Source}
Creative popcorn cones for easy portability! {Source}
Delicious & inspiring flavors, like Rosemary & Sea Salt! Yum! {Source}


I'm salivating just thinking about it! We absolutely can't wait for you to see the popcorn bar on Saturday!
