Ever since I styled my kid's Big Top Circus Party , I've had customers and readers email me about the props and little details of the dessert table, so I've decided to share not one, but 3 easy tutorials to help you re-create the look!
Alice in Wonderland Mad Hatter Tea Party Ideas & Printables
Excited to show today you some extra photos from Alice in Wonderland Inspired Tea Party styled by my dear, talented friend Dorangela from Two Prince Bakery Theater ! Dorangela is one of our blogging contributors, and she dreamed up this beautiful Wonderland shoot for Bird's Party Magazine Issue 5 . Since we don't get to feature all the photos in the mag due to page numbers, we're going all out today and gorging ourselves with extra yummy eye candy! :)
Eeeee!! Yes pinch me!! :D When I got asked by Parenting Magazine if they could feature our Honey Bee Party printables in their May 2012 Issue and on Parenting.com , I was over the moon but didn't quite believe it! So it's really only now that I have the actual magazine in hand (thanks to my dear Crissy from Crissy's Crafts) that it has sunk in!
Missed you guys!! Yes, taking it slowly still and just about recovered from last week, but I thought I'd post something to brighten up your day (and mine)! :) For those of you who haven't seen it, this fabulous yellow and grey Spring Brunch Party was styled by our contributor Smita from The Party Wall blog - Smita came up with the concept for Bird's Party Magazine , and she used our newest printable kit to help embellish the brunch table and dessert buffet, which she styled in the same colors!
Our Spring/Summer magazine has been a HUGE success so far and we've already reached over 360,000 unique page views since Friday, and I only have you guys to thank for helping spread the word!! ;) But after today's quick and easy Christmas Wreath DIY , I'll be taking a little bloggy break this month and slowing down on my posts - I need to re-group myself, catch up on family-time, do the laundry, and work on some new party projects!
This giveaway is now closed! Yes, we're breaking from our regular schedule to bring you a dazzling giveaway, literally!!

This giveaway is now closed! Beana Baby Boutique was founded in 2007 with the inspiration from a sweet little curly top blonde - Amber, the owner, had a hard time finding the items she was looking for locally and found herself scrolling the internet looking for fabulous clothing and accessories for her daughter. Beana Baby just went thru a major expansion this past year and now is the go to place for First Birthday Outfits for moms across the US! The brand is following the path of the sweet little blonde; first starting with baby slings and now evolving into tutus, accessories, and many other great girly items.
Taking a break from Magazine duties and gorging on some eye candy from our sweet and talented customers!! Today's Pop Diva Birthday Bash was sent to us by Joan who styled and photographed this party along with her friend Eleonoor, and she tells me that "little divas really rocked the catwalk and song all afternoon!" :)

No, that's not a paradox! It really is possible, as my sweet friend Gillian from Crumbs of Comfort Cake Design shows with her party - Gillian used our Rainbow Party Printables in this desserts table for a "30 something party" . You probably have already seen Gillian's work all over the web, as she collaborates with many talented Australian businesses and designers - She's a mega talented baker and also a fabulous events stylists herself, and I'm so honored to share once again her fabulous work with you!
Easy Easter Lamb Cake Recipe & White Easter Decor
Sounds weird, "lamb cake" , but this is exactly what it is. But don't be alarmed, it's really just short for "lamb-shaped chocolate chip cookies sponge cake with vanilla butter-cream" :) Yes, I baked on the weekend. In fact I've been baking like mad for the past few days in preparation for Bird's Party Magazine Spring/Summer issue coming out soon!!
Yes! I have finally managed to create a brand NEW website for Bird's Party Magazine - A place where you'll find our latest magazine news, connect with our editorial team, see our latest stats and readership details, get all the free printables and downloads featured in each issue, and where you can also buy and browse all our past issues!
An Adult Royal Tea Birthday Party
The printables for this party were inspired by Kate and Will's Royal wedding , but one of my sweet customers from the UK asked me to mod it a bit, and she used the Royal Tea Party printables for a leaving-do instead! I've since received many requests for the same royal designs to be used in other events like birthdays, bridal showers and hen parties, so decided to make the printables a bit more general for other occasion - And now you too can add a touch of British flair to your own party and events! ;) Check out all the adorable details and home-made desserts below!
Happy Monday!! Today we have really cute, but oh-so simple Easter Chick Cupcake Tutorial to share from Belle Cake Topper and Mould - Ideal for Easter parties, desert tables or why not as a cute party favor or gift?! :)
A Woodland Bambi Inspired 3rd Birthday Party
Today's stunning party is courtesy of one our sweet customer's Claire, all the way from Australia! Claire loved our Red Riding Hood Party Collection but wanted a more woodland feel, so she asked me to design a little fawn instead! I must say, I think the party printables turned out really sweet, but Claire went above an beyond my wildest expectation with the styling of this party! Check it out...
