The Superhero party theme is one of the very first I designed for the shop . So I felt this year it needed to be jazzed up slightly. Kinda like a printable makeover. Which ALWAYS gets me in the party mood! So I did a double happy dance when my good friend Virginie reached out to use our Superhero printables for her little Romain's 5th birthday party! Especially because we then get to see them in super pow wow action :)
In my book pink goes with pretty much anything ;) But is particularly pretty, coupled with bright yellow for a seasonal garden party inspired by flowers and butterflies ! I'm also SO over those big, elaborate dessert tables we used to style some years ago. And as much I loved doing them, I think kids birthday parties don't need to be OTT to be charming. A few touches of DIY decor is all I tend to go for these days, and this darling inspiration board is proof that less is more!
I love designing party printables for my friend and blog contributor Smita . She has the most amazing ideas for her kids birthday themes, and she ALWAYS blows me away with her creativity and flair for styling any event! Smita and I having been working on parties for years now, and the printables for this Japanese Ninja party she styled for her son Sohan's 8th birthday, are one of my favs to date! Check out all the fun details she describes below.
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!
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!
With St Patrick's Day around the corner we've been pinning lots of rainbow colored party ideas . And I thought it was the perfect time to re-share one of my fav parties we featured in our last magazine issue ! This charming 'over the rainbow' birthday party has a crafty element to it that will really speak to creative girls and pre-teens!
Some of you may be already prepping for back to school, but summer's NOT over folks. And we're determined to squeeze all the sunny days and summer parties in, before Fall totally takes over... Oh, yeah! Speaking of which, I'm thinking these ice cream social printables would make a cool end of summer party, birthday bash theme or a refreshing back to school celebration . Sorry, pun intended ;)
For me, summer is not complete without a fun pool party . So for our third shoot with Coca-Cola® , we couldn't pass up the chance get our toes wet! The weather here's been extremely hot, and I also decided to set up a Coke Float station to also help keep things cool. Literally! ;)
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!
Ah, so nice to start the week on Tuesday, right?! ;) And to kick things off, we have a super adorable music inspired first birthday party from our contributor Smita . She ALWAYS pulls off stunningly creative parties for her kids with lots of handmade, DIY details; and I'm honored to be a part of it for her little Aashi's first birthday baby jam ! If you're into your crafts and handmade decor, you'll love how totally clever this party is!
The Frozen Disney movie has been a hit with kids worldwide. My daughter is obsessed with Anna and Elsa, and can't stop humming "Let it Go..." :) And so I am super excited to finally jump in the band wagon of the whole Frozen-mania 'round here. Today's party will dazzle and wow you, as it did me! It has lots of DIY decorations, stunning details and clever decor ideas that stay true to this popular Disney film theme, without falling prey to using copyrighted images. And that in my book is super fresh indeed!
Summer rhymes with outdoors fun, but also with nature. And inevitable, with little critters. Spiders, flying bugs and little crawlers...all offer the perfect birthday party theme for little boys who love nature. And this Bug-tastic joint birthday by my talented friend Vivian Kerr from Kerr's Kreations is packed with amazing and inspiring ideas! I worked with Vivian for the bug inspired party printables, and am totally amazed by all the incredible details she incorporated into this fabulous party - from the food to the decor, the party activities and all in between. Scroll down to see check out the fun details as told by Vivian.
