If you follow us, you know we adore paper flowers. They are so easy to make and so versatile Large ones make the perfect backdrop for sweet tables, like the gold ones we made to use here. So we made them the center of attention, they are a great way to add color and dimension to your backdrop. We used a pink and white polka dot table cloth with a white ruffle to set our goodies on. Tall cake stands hold our pink cake pops with white non-perils. We adorned them with pink bows just to add a little bit of sweetness. Our fairy sprinkles favors are perfect to add to the table. Although, they would act as take home favor, they are dainty and add interest to the setting. In the center, we used pink and white polka dot cups to coordinate with the table cloth. We created glittery paper flowers that we stuck onto lollipops and put into the cups. Our little tags had each child's name on them. A mini cake was adorned with our new cake crown in pink and green and set on a pink milk glass cake stand. Finally, we set yellow mini rose cupcakes under a dome with a pink bow and scattered some outside of the dome as well.
Taking one of our collections, creating DIY projects around it and then showing how you can create a small party setting is actually something that we have wanted to do for a long time. We are excited that this is our first post and hope it will help to inspire your next spring party!

ReplyDeleteEvery detail is beautiful and the oversized flower backdrop is simply stunning! I remember seeing another party of yours that used these flowers in kraft paper/gold paint...could you direct me to that tutorial? I'd love to make some of these for my daughter's school auction decor next month. Thank! :)
