April Showers Rainbow Birthday Party Ideas

April Showers Rainbow Birthday Party Ideas

Spring's in full bloom, true. But still can't avoid those April showers, so we might as well celebrate them. Because if nothing else, that's when we're more likely to see a pretty rainbow! ;) And who doesn't love rainbows?! The colors are an instant pick me up, and perfect for injecting a little cheer into our seasonal birthdays, baby showers or any other celebration this time of year!

Bee Inspired Birthday Party Ideas

Bee Inspired Birthday Party Ideas

Spring is synonymous with flowers, but also with the humble bumble bee. And it's so heartbreaking to read everywhere that bees are on the verge of extinction :( ( you can read more on this subject here ). But if it's up to us party lovers, bee themed parties and events are here to stay, right?!  We ♥ the bumble bees 'round here and this sweet theme is perfect for Spring weddings, showers, luncheons and birthdays of any age!

Unexpected Party Ideas with Honeycomb Balls

Unexpected Party Ideas with Honeycomb Balls

Honeycomb balls are the new hot trend gracing the pages of the party blogs.  You just can't miss them! Mainly because you can use them in your party or styling decor to achieve the  "wow factor" without much effort or cost. Sure, they make great hanging decorations and garlands for birthdays, weddings, home decor...but today, 'funky' and 'unexpected' is the name of the party game.  And here are my top favs to help inspire your next shindig!

JAWesome Shark Party Ideas for Shark Week

JAWesome Shark Party Ideas for Shark Week

In honor of shark week, we have gathered the funkiest, most JAWsome party ideas for you. Sorry, couldn't help myself ;p I'm all for pink, glitter and frilly 'round here on the blog, but I also have a nature-animal-lover little boy at home, who adores adventure and the wild. And sharks (or anything with sharp teeth for that matter...) are an integral part of that. So for our Bird's Party Magazine Summer Issue , we selected a few sharp-toothed ideas that you can re-create at home! ;) Here are some more:

Awesome DIY Emoji Birthday Party Ideas

Emoji rock my world. You could say they make me Emojinal ;p I'm pretty sure they rock yours too, no? Since we did out  Emoji fest  back in April , I'm seeing more and more FUN party posts and super cool ideas, recipes, crafts and decor popping up EVERYWHERE ( so many, that I had to start a themed  Emoji Party Ideas PIN board   ). Here are some of my faves.

5 Pretty & Delicious Summer Party Cocktails

Photo source Because yesterday we were talking bar styling , then naturally today's post had to include drinks and recipes. After all, no self-respecting party bar is complete without pretty libations?!  Here are some of my faves, handpicked for their awesome taste but also good look s, 'cause we all know we eat (or drink) with our eyes first. I'm particularly digging all the recipes that contain some sort of herb: thyme, mint, lavender, rosemary ...to make use of my garden bounty this summer! Looks super funky too!!

Awesome DIY Bar & Drinks Station Ideas

Photo source Though we're all prepping for back to school 'round here, summer is not over yet. No, sir!  And we're still making the most of our sunny days by eating and drinking al fresco as much as possible. So bar styling has become a necessity really. They're so practical and can look totally awesome for any occasion.

Red, White & Blue Nautical Inspired Party Ideas

Red, White & Blue Nautical Inspired Party Ideas

Okay, so some of us are still feeling the chill, but what better way to escape to sunnier climes than with a little Nautical inspired party eye candy ?!  I've been nursing a cold since last week (boooo), and am determined to lift my spirits anyway I can, so visualization of all things "summery and hot" totally gets my vote!  Besides, I know for a fact, that our Aussie, Brazilian and southern hemisphere party friends will also appreciate the post! ;)

15 Gorgeous Thanksgiving Tablescape Ideas

15 Gorgeous Thanksgiving Tablescape Ideas

Loving the simple/rustic feel of this table. I could spend the whole day (literally) looking on Pinterest for inspiration on tablescapes . I love seeing people's interpretations of a theme, holiday or event. The basics remain the same (table, plates, centerpieces, napkins...) but the creative flair and imagination comes from each carefully thought-out detail. So you don't have to spend ages looking, I've selected some of my favorite tables here. But I'm not gonna lie. Some of these are beyond fabulous and detailed that I don't think we can recreate the looks at the very last minute. But creativity is not about copying, it's about being inspired! So I hope you can take away some of the elements in these wonderful tablescapes, and find you own personal style for Thanksgiving! :)

Black and White Halloween Party Ideas

Black and White Halloween Party Ideas

Have you ever been tempted to go monochrome for Halloween? I did last year , and totally loved it! Monochrome is sleek, is chic and is one of the Fall color trends for 2013. What's not to love?! I think this palette is really easy to pull together (think mummies, spiders, bats, crows...) and really helps to add an air of  grown-up sophistication to Halloween festivities. Check out some inspiring ideas I've been pinning:

Pink and Black Halloween Party Ideas

Pink and Black Halloween Party Ideas

I think the whole Monster High phenomenon really has had a big part to play in all the trending pink Halloween (or Pink-o-Ween) parties we see emerging everywhere. The fact Halloween also falls in the Pink October month, makes pink the ideal color for this spooky holiday! So if you fancy a little something girly, glam and totally  pinkalicious this Halloween, here are some of our fave ideas we've been pinning.

Summer has ended but some of us are still trying to hold on to the last of the sunny days, before the autumnal freshness fully kick in...and this color palette reflects the transition beautifully.  Plus, I have a sweet tooth, and something about the title of the post just sits right with today's PAINT MY PARTY colors, don't you think?! :)
