Wonder Woman Dessert Table

Wonder Woman has been my favorite superhero since I was a little girl so naturally I had a blast creating this dessert table featuring our latest Superhero party backdrop.

Wonder Woman has gone through several looks through the years, but my favorite has always been the Wonder Woman I remember from when I was a little girl in the early 80s. I loved watching the TV show with Lynda Carter and I even remember having Wonder Woman underoos! 

The Dessert Table & Decor:
I wanted a retro comic feel with red, turquoise and yellow as the main colors. I started with a black background and our Superhero party backdrop. I added the cut out action words for extra flair.  Using my Silhouette, I made black cityscapes to wrap around the candy jars, Wonder Woman crowns for cupcake wrappers and treat boxes, Eagle chest emblems for the treat boxes, Wonder Woman logos and cupcake toppers. 

The Sweeties:
I made cupcakes with gold lightning bolt fondant toppers and candy covered cereal treats topped with fondant stars. I topped golden Oreos with the retro candy decorations that I found at Target on clearance for 50 cents along with the Superman and Batman party picks I also found on clearance.  I filled the candy jars with gumballs and m&ms, and used yellow Twizzlers as Wonder Woman's lasso. I filled striped popcorn boxes with popcorn and wrapped a crown around the base.

Paper Stationery:
I made Wonder Woman stickers for the small candy containers and favor tags for the large favor boxes.  I wrapped candy bars with comic pages I printed and also made matching treat bags.

Remember those icky candy decorations we used to get on our cakes in the 80s? I was so excited when I came across these at Target! Nothing says retro like these candy decorations!

I found a silicon lightning bolt ice tray in Target's dollar spot and used it to make these fondant toppers. Super easy!

Did you know Wonder Woman has been romantically linked to both Superman and Batman? What a lucky lady!

Tidbit:

Our new backdrop isn't limited to Wonder Woman, it can easily be used for Superman, Batman, Spiderman and other popular superhero themed parties!

I think this theme is one of my all time favorites, I hope you enjoyed it as well and find lots of inspiration for your next Superhero party!

It's a Minnie Party!

Now with the holiday's behind me, I can put the party planning in high gear! I will be launching several new party themes this year, so stay tuned!

But first I'd like to share a very special Minnie Mouse party by my favorite photographer and friend, Alexi.  Her daughter Ellie turned 3 in December and insisted on a Minnie Mouse party.  I was thrilled when Alexi asked me to create a few items for Ellie's big bash. Who could say no to Minnie Mouse and pink bows? Not this girl!

 

 

Isn't Ellie the cutest?  I just love how Alexi styled Ellie's party, everything came out beautifully.  Thank you Alexi for letting me be a small part of Ellie's big day!


Thanks for visiting and God bless!

Anchors Aweigh!

Happy Wednesday!

We love custom requests! A couple of months ago, one of my favorite photographers, Sam of Puddle Jumpers Photography, asked me to design a Sweet Sixteen Anchor theme party pack for a special young lady.  Well, today I am thrilled to share with you the photos from this beautiful party.

The birthday girl, Paige, requested a black and teal color palette with stripes and anchors.  She wanted a very simple design with "not too many anchors" and a splash of silver. So with that, I started with the invitation which to my delight, was well received by Paige and her sweet mother Jenny.  And from there I designed and assembled the coordinating decorations.  Jenny and Paige recruited the help of Sam to style the party. Sam has a refined eye for detail, as you will also see in her "Olivia the Pig" party which I will share with you later.
 

The venue was perfect for the theme, the pool area was a serene and inviting backdrop.

My personal favorite detail is how the ladies incorporated colorful candies in the theme, it gives it that extra something!

What a delectable spread of goodies and confections!

  

 

 

I also made activity place-mats for the kiddos....

I just love how it all came together. Great job Jenny and Sam!

And Happy "Belated" Birthday Paige...thank you for letting me be part of your very special day!

Ahhh....to be 16 again. ;)
