Cornish Fairy Party

This is the Fairy Party to end ALL Fairy Parties!

I think I've died and gone to FAIRY HEAVEN!

I found this beautiful and whimsical Cornish Fairy themed birthday party at the blog for Tradewind Tiaras. Nicole, the author and owner of a tiara designing company shares wedding planning tips, products and tutorials on her gorgeous blog. The Cornish Fairy Party is so full of beautiful photos and there are many tutorials to help you create your very own backyard fairy experience.

Each party guest received her very own tutu and lovely purple and yellow set of pixie wings.

 

Beautiful handcrafted, beaded tiaras were also worn by all the party guests.

Is it a hanging topiary? No! It's a PINATA! This is just too pretty to hit with a stick:)

The tablescape carried the rustic, wooded, nature theme perfectly.

The dessert table displayed several unique, theme specific treats.

Edible Fairy Wands

Meringue Mushrooms  (don't they look like the REAL thing?)

Lollipop Topiaries

Fairy Berries

Nicole used river rocks to label the different treats. Click here to learn how to Decoupage River Rocks to use as labels. These would also make lovely matching place cards

The centerpiece of the entire party was this colorfully whimsical cake, baked and decorated by Nicole.

(watch out Cake Boss!)

Hanging above the dessert table was an iron chandelier draped with green beads, complete with a little fairy perched in the center.

Pink Cowgirl Party

Hey Ya'll!

Look at this absolutly adorable Pink Cowgirl Birthday Party!
Nneka Saran featured this party on her blog, "for all things creative".

A balloon sculpture featuring shades of soft pink and brown with a gold birthday number topper. (Did you notice the longhorn skull and wagon wheel decoration on the window?)

Have you ever seen so many party favors? I especially love the pony topped bubbles!

Just when you think there can't be enough cute party favors, there's is a second table of favors! The second table is topped with water guns, magnet games, large and small cowgirl hats and even plastic handcuffs. 

These custom imitation branding irons are so clever!

The cake was a simple sheet cake topped with an ingenious edible design, featuring a western theme print and the birthday girl.

Pink Carpet Princess

I absolutely adore this Pink Carpet Princess Party that fellow Mom-Blogger Shannon created for her daughter Syndey.

Hot pink and lime green with animal print accents decked the party space.

The party guests arrived by walking a pink carpet and stopped to pose for the paparazzi, ("momarazzi"). 

Whimsical handmade centerpieces 

This cake is To Die For. And Shannon designed the cake topper herself!

This crafty Mom kept the party guests busy with princess-friendly activities, like whipping up a sugar scrub to pamper their princess hands,

and painting princess crowns.
