{Parties} Feathers, Fur & Frou Frou

We saw this party and just had to share it with you!!  Feathers, Fur & Frou Frou...Oh My! party by Angela of Fantasy Celebrations an amazing party planner in Houston, USA.

Fantasy Celebrations recently designed the sweetest little party for a client's daughter who celebrated her 2nd birthday. The toddler is fascinated with baby animals - kittens, bunnies chicks ... anything with soft, warm fur. So when the client called Fantasy Celebrations about providing decor that would highlight her daughter's love for baby animals, rather than going with an obvious animal theme, they based the design on what most fascinates the little girl about the animals ... their soft furiness.

Thus, "Feathers, fur and frou frou ... oh my!" was the theme, and incorporated the theme with the use of lots of marabou and chandelle feathers, a soft colour palette of ballet slipper pink and cream, and pearl accents. For entertainment, they hired a company that brought in baby bunnies, little chicks and the cutest miniature ponies! 

Birthday Parties - Yummy Lollipop Party

Travelling through the Blogsphere we have come across The TomKat Studio blog and her great creations sold on Etsy. As parents we all know how difficult it is to come up with great ideas/themes for our kids' birthday parties.

One idea that Kim had come up with for her own daughter was a "Lollipop Party". The invitations were shaped like a lollipop with the birthday girl's name on it and all the details of the party. If you have the time you can do these yourself with a few pieces of colourful paper and a circle cutter or they can be bought from her Etsy shop! Kim also designed cupcake toppers and thank you tags ("thank you for being sweet") tied to the mini swirl lollipops!

As a centerpiece, Kim found these easy to make centerpieces (from Hostess with a Mostess). How cool are these, some jellybeans, some lollipops and you have it.

Now we all know how kids love to have sweets and cakes at birthday parties. These are just some ideas to make your child's birthday a delicious one.

For more birthday ideas/themes please visit The TomKat Studio, and if you need any invitations, favor tags, cupcake toppers & more you will find them at Kim's Etsy Shop!
