A Peter Rabbit Spring Party with Free Printables

A Peter Rabbit Spring Party with Free Printables

This post is in partnership with the new Peter Rabbit movie, but all opinions are my own. Spring is 'round the corner, and if you need a cute party theme for your child's birthday, for a baby shower or Easter celebration, then this PETER RABBIT party will tick all the boxes! I was super excited to be contacted  by Sony to help celebrate the release of the NEW Peter Rabbit movie coming out on February 9th, and decided to style a 'Hop Into Spring' party full of fun and whimsical details that mirror the movie! 😍

My Pink & Copper Christmas Party

My Pink & Copper Christmas Party

If you've seem my blog posts lately , you'd have noticed how much the pink and copper combo is influencing my party styling these days! Millennial pink is a super hot trend right now, and paired with the cool metallic shine from copper accents, makes for a festive and oh-so girly table, whatever the occasion. So my heart dictated the choice of colors for our Christmas table this year! Check out the prettiness below.

DIY Caramel Apple Station

DIY Caramel Apple Station

Thank you Mardi Gras Napkins for sponsoring this post. Learn more about Mardi Gras Conversation Starter Napkins here and grab your coupon today! Fall is one of my favorite seasons. Mainly because of all the the wonderful produce in season this time of year, and the tasty treats we bake (and eat) with them, of course! 😉 Our apple trees were covered in fruit these past few weeks, and it has been a real treat, I tell ya! We've had apple pies, apple crumbles, apple compotes and even apple chips baked in the oven and covered in cinnamon. YUM! But one of my fav ways to use up all them apples, is with a Caramel Apple Station !

Our Quick & Easy End of Summer Patio Party

Our Quick & Easy End of Summer Patio Party

Summer is coming to an end, boo! And as much as I've been trying to resist the transition into Fall, school for my kiddos starts next week, so there's no denying it any longer. Double boo! But to lessen the blow, and make sure we still make the most of the hot days - yes, it's still 40 deg C in the shade 'round these parts; we celebrated last weekend with an end of summer patio party !  It's our way to enjoy the fine produce on offer at the end of season, and relax before the school routine finally kicks in.

It was national watermelon day on August 03rd (yeah, did you miss that too?!), but  it's a party theme that will help us linger a little longer in the sun and reminds us that summer is not quite over yet! 😉

Styling a Smoothie Bar for Summer

Styling a Smoothie Bar for Summer

Summer is the perfect season to try and eat healthier. With an abundance of fresh produce in season, summer's when I create lighter and fresher meals at home. One of my favorite quick snacks/drinks to serve my family is a smoothie. We love it for breakfast, we love it in a bowl, we love it as a tasty treat... So I got thinking it would be so fun to set up a smoothie bar for a party! Such a refreshing idea for a bridal or baby shower, summer brunch or any summer celebration!

A Colorful Cinco de Mayo Mexican Fiesta

A Colorful Cinco de Mayo Mexican Fiesta

I have Latin blood in my veins, so Cinco de Mayo is one celebration I'm particularly drawn to. Mainly because of the lashings of Mojito, churros and tacos involved, let's be honest 😋 Last year we held an outdoors fiesta ( see all the photos, video and recipes here ), so this year I decided to bring the party indoors, but still keeping the colorful and fun vibe that's associated with all Mexican fiestas!

And it makes me SO happy so see the blog and our Instagram feed bursting with vibrant party ideas! 😊 So much so, that we decided to give you a  little "gold" at the end of our rainbow themed week!

Well, this DIY is a spin off, since we used the same technique to make a garland that you can use to decorate walls or as a table runner!

A Crafty Valentine's Day Party

Valentine's Day to me is another excuse to throw a party. Sorry, not sorry! 😋 But a party to celebrate my guests : my kids, my loved ones, my friends...so a craft party is something we love to host 'round these parts! Kids and grown up love getting stuck into something creative: making your own Valentine's Day cards, a gift wrapping party with your gal pals or simply creating something handmade, with love. Yep, there's nothign we love best than a creative girly bonding session over glitter and glue!

Green & Gold Christmas Holiday Tablescape

Green & Gold Christmas Holiday Tablescape

I styled this green and gold Christmas Holiday party last year, but never got a chance to show it here on the blog. But I'm glad to be sharing now, 'cause apparently the 2017 Pantone color of the year is green (or greenery), so we're bang on trend! 😉 This was one of the easiest table decor styling or tablescapes I've ever done. My sister was coming over from London for Christmas, and I wanted to create homely, cozy atmosphere for our family dinner.
