Parties with glitter makes my heart sing and my car bling!
When our client, Dee-Ann, made contact and sent me a link to a Pinterest board birthday girl, Emma, had created I knew I had my work cut out as this girl OBVIOUSLY knew what she wanted and I had to deliver. Her vision was clear: glitter and shimmer.
Our client gave us free reign allowing us to explore a different set up style but keeping in line with our design aesthetic of making it beautiful. Even though there was no specific theme, simply a colour palette, it was a beautifully magical one at that. We carried the bling element throughout most of the decor and food elements. Emma wanted glitter dipped bags, glitter doughnuts and glitter cake pops. Oh, let’s not forget the balloon arch!
Instead of our signature candy buffet table we showcased the birthday cake on a high cocktail table and added some sweet decor elements surrounded by an opulent balloon arch. We also did a beautifully decorated table that had soft pink tablecloths with sequin runners surrounded by wooden benches for the guests to sit on. The table contained all the yummy treats for the kids to have within easy arms length once it was time to devour them!
Details that I cannot get enough of and won’t soon forget:
- Glitter dipped party bags;
- pink, purple, gold and clear balloon arch;
- glitter dipped doughnuts;
- glitter dipped cake pops;
- Welcome signage;
- Flower arrangements with personalised glitter cutouts;
- iced biscuit with “E” monogram;
- glitter candles.

What a beautiful party this turned out to be.
Black and white with a touch of playfulness makes for a stunningly elegant theme for a kids party.
I absolutely love this mom and her sense of style. We have assisted her with her son, Hudson’s birthday two years in a row. She has an amazing eye for detail and knows exactly what she wants to do way ahead of time. So when @styled_by_mama sent me a message: ‘Hi, it’s time’, I knew she was ready to rock and roll. The theme was monochrome black and white and the brief was simple: Monochrome. Everything to be black and white.
The party ideas and elements that kept this look simple and elegant yet playful and childlike:
- White wooden furniture which is softened by the playful polka dot party boxes, stripe plates and the cute name flags for each guest.
- The combination of white, silver and black star and orb shaped balloons, with a friendly zebra in the mix.
- A cone shaped party hat and a ‘party animal’ back pack.
- Iced cookie in the birthday boy‘s initial, ‘H’ to be washed down with some chocolate milk. Yum!
- Cake pops adorned with black and white feathers and marshmallows dipped in “black” chocolate.
- All the animals strolling through the treats on the main table and kiddies table.
This mom styled this party all by herself, we simply provided some of the key elements: white wooden furniture, black and white stripe linens, feather topped cake pops, iced “H” cookie and cactus shaped (not shown) iced cookie, dipped marshmallows, candy jars, juice dispensers, ice cream machine (with flavour of your choice) and black cake stands.
