For this casual party I toned down the decorating scheme; a candy buffet would have been too much. Here are some of the special touches from the tablescape and party favor details.
The place setting was easy to set up and inexpensive. Pretty scrapbooking paper is a perfect base for party plates and is a unique contrast on the neutral silk shantung tablecloth. Many of the girls took their “placemat” with them and want to use it at home. It’s amazing what a fun twist on a familiar thing can do. The sturdy plate is perfect for pizza and other treats. Party guests also loved getting a trophy. Of course, two of the boys decided to drink their Sprite and fruit punch out of the trophy. Ah, the difference between girls and boys. Hahaha
My favorite party favor was the gorgeous bowling shoe cookie. Shannon from The Sweet Shop Cookie Co designed the delicious cookie with our party colors in mind. They were delicious. Skinny tubes of green and blue M&M’s are another fun and delicious treat.
Cupcakes are a favorite for my double digit darlings! The children enjoyed the delicious Madagascar vanilla cupcakes topped in green and blue candy.
And the adults appreciated sweet treats in red velvet, key lime, and salted caramel. Yum!
It's hard to believe that my little twincesses are ten! They've turned into such young ladies in the past few months.

ReplyDeleteHi Bethany,
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable party!! I was wondering if you could tell me where yo get the skiing cellophane tubes for the M&M favors. I looked in Hobby Looby and Michaels, but couldn't find any in that size. Thank you so much!
