Baking Birthday Party Ideas For Girls or Boys
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 ?!
A Sweet 16 Birthday Party Ideas & Printables
As a designer, I relish the chance to create unique printables, to push myself and challenge my abilities. Bird's Party Magazine offers me a chance to do just that. Not only we always have to come up with new and exciting ideas for each issue, but I also get to work with some incredible, talented stylists who's vision and unique events always push me to give it my all and venture out of my comfort zone .
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).

So I raided my party shop and grabbed paper plates , candy tubes and dinky striped paper straws . Not forgetting the adorable Circus printables , and my trusty glue gun of course! ;) This cute carousel centerpiece would be fun as a birthday desserts table candy dish , kids table decoration or even a fun party activity (minus the hot glue!). It's easy to make, quick and inexpensive too!
