Cupcakes, Cake~Pops and now Cookie~Pops!

October 15, 2014| Boy Sleepover parties, Boys Parties, Girls Parties, Girls Sleepover Parties, Ideas and Themes, Sleepover Parties

So, we have had the cupcake rage…then the Cake~Pop storm…and now we have Cookie~Pops…delicious and that bit different!

We all love a sweet treat and a celebration is the perfect opportunity to indulge that sweet tooth…

Cookie~Pops are the brain child of Squidges, based on the Wirral. Some lovely flavours to choose from…but the most popular being a mixture of milk and white chocolate.

They make a great dessert at a party and look just fab on a dessert table along with individual cookies in big glass jars and moreish tiffin.

How about a party favour? Why not bin the traditional party bags in favour of a Cookie~Pop wrapped individually in cellophane bags and tied with a coordinating ribbon…these definitely wont end up in the foot well of the car on the way home!!!

A summer time party for a brother & sister!

October 13, 2014| Boys Parties, Girls Parties, Ideas and Themes

A regular client booked The Celebration Tent for her children’s 1st and 2nd birthday party. A tent for each of them ~ fab! A pretty pink tent for the little girl and a Thomas the Tank Engine for the little boy ~ perfect!

The week before had been dreadful, wet, cold and generally miserable and that was July! The day it self was glorious, my clients garden was full of little children playing and having fun and the older children being entertained by The Creation Station in the tents. In the background a crooner was singing and inviting the children to join in!

Again, because the children were little mum opted for the picnic boxes, the food was supplied by Wirral Gourmet , who also supplied delicious food for the adults too! Lunch time arrived and the children went in to their chosen tent ~ pretty pink or Thomas the Tank and enjoyed their party tea!

Another great party! x

‘The Celebration Tent’ party without the tent!

October 13, 2014| Boys Parties, Ideas and Themes

A few months ago I was contacted by a mum wanting The Celebration Tent for her two sons (one 4 years old and one five years old) Superhero themed birthday party. However, due to the number of children and the time of year ~ my bell tents just weren’t practical.

Mum still wanted the styling of The Celebration Tent and wanted to hire our low level tables, cushions for her local Scout Hut. We also provided her with a table covering, a place setting for each child and balloons for the table…all in the Pop Art Superhero theme!

The table looked great and the kids loved it, they all sat quiet on their cushion and enjoyed their party tea!

Oh no it’s the Gruffalo!

A little boy who loves the Gruffalo ~ who doesn’t?!

We created a gorgeous Gruffalo themed party tent for the little mans 2nd birthday party.

Again, because the children were so young mum opted for the picnic boxes (food supplied by Wirral Gourmet) instead of the more traditional tea party set up making lunch time so much easier. All the food had been prepared before the party and placed into the individual boxes and then popped into the tent.

The tent looked all the better for the pale blue and orange balloons tied to each lunch box alternately…and the addition of the huge foil number 2 just finished the tent off perfectly!

A ‘camouflage’ tea party for a young lady!

September 29, 2014| Boys Parties, Girls Parties, Ideas and Themes

So, a young lady wants a camouflage themed tea party?!

I thought it would have been easy to find pink camouflage party ware but no! So thinking hat on…and this was the result!

The party was held at Chester Lakes and the food was supplied by Wirral Gourmet, but this time in brown paper bags to keep with the outdoor theme.

The kids had a fab afternoon running about all the open space and playing on the park, and then being refueled with their gorgeous party food.

Mum created the little sweet jars as favours instead of the usual party bags which again added to the girly touches!

A ‘digger’ tea party for a lucky little boy!

September 29, 2014| Boys Parties, Ideas and Themes

This last weekend we had the pleasure of creating a ‘digger’ tea party tent for a little boy who is ‘digger’ mad! He had 9 little friends attending his 2nd birthday party.

The children were only little so mum opted for the lunch boxes with carton drinks instead of the traditional tea party layout. This makes lunch time so much easier…each little person has their own box filled with tea party goodies ~ they just love it! Once they’d finished their cartons of juice the mini milk bottles were filled with juice.

The lunch boxes not only look great but they are very practical too! They stop you over catering which in turn stops you over spending ~ perfect!

To finish the ‘digger’ look we added builder hats and a digger balloon.

The tent was a great success particularly when the rain came, everyone dashed into the tent to keep dry!
