DIY Monster High Inspired Cake Pops Recipe

DIY Monster High Inspired Cake Pops Recipe

This year I'm inspired by all things Monster High for Halloween (mainly 'cause I have a little fan at home...). So much so, that together with some of my fave party and food bloggers; we put together a huge and totally SPOOK-takular spread in the Fall issue of Bird's Party Magazine - with decorated cookies, cake pops, cupcakes and sparkly party ideas inspired by the Monster High vibe!

A Bright & Colorful Summer Party Fiesta

A Bright & Colorful Summer Party Fiesta

Fiestas are not only reserved for Cinco de Mayo. I personally, would have a fiesta any day of the week. Tacos, pinatas, Margaritas....the lot! So when my friend Gillian sent over her stunning party photos with a fiesta theme and get this, PINATA COOKIES (!!); I actually did a little dance. It's a softer take on the usually bright Mexican inspired theme. It has pastel colors and warm summer hues with a  stunning watercolor cake, and I reckon it would be PERFECT for a seasonal wedding, bridal shower, dinner party or girly birthday!

Hey sweet friends! This week we have a super lush ' baking themed ' party week for ya! So prepare to be dazzle with the eye candy ;) My kids love to bake with me, and when I was designing Bird's Party latest Baking Party Printables , I realized there aren't many ' boy-friendly' baking parties out there, and there should be! There are lots of girly, frilly decorations, so I wanted to design and style something cute, but that would appeal to boys or girls and twins of any age. Come to think of it, these baking party ideas would also be cool for play dates, classroom activities, or a twins birthday ?!

15 Delicious Girls Night In Mocktail Recipes

15 Delicious Girls Night In Mocktail Recipes

I'm not much of a drinker but I love a nice tipple, especially on a Girls Night In ! But I also know that getting the girls 'round means you have to account for varied tastes and an array of dietary requirements - some don't drink, others are on a special diet, or counting the calories, or expecting... So mocktails are the answer for me! But a mixologist I am not, and need all the help I can get to deliver the wow factor without comprising on taste and creativity. So I've searched and scoured the web, and put together a delicious collection of non-alcoholic drinks recipes that not only look super funky and scrumptious, but are also easy to make and pack a whole lot of punch (no pun).
