Olivia the Pig Birthday Party


Today's winning party feature goes to this adorable

Olivia The Pig Birthday Party

submitted by Michelle of Emma's World.

Michelle knew that she needed to present a table where food and drinks would be laid out in a stylish manner-nothing short of what Miss Olivia herself would want. She stuck to the red and white theme/color palette and had her table bordered on a "circus flair" because the second Olivia book has her saving the circus.

She ordered a majority of the table ware, table cloths, bunting through Oriental Trading.

She got the wooden spoons through the website Garnish, along with the baker's twine and red paper straws.

The images for the straw toppers and the treat bags were downloaded through the Nick JR site which has great printable images for all their shows in case there are Yo Gabba Gabba or Wonder Pets fans out there.

The mac n cheese were put into little containers she found at the Container Store. She attached a small wooden spoon with bakers twine to each container so each child would have their own and feel somewhat "grown up". Michelle's friend, Claudia Sanchez helped her with the calligraphy by writing the name tags that went on each sippy cup and treat bag as well as the food labels. Michelle then made sticker labels to go on the lids of the mac n cheese that said, 'Lunch with Emma'! The image is from one of her books, Dinner with Olivia...she simply changed the text in Photoshop.

Wonderful Party, Michelle!
Thanks for your submission!
Congratulations on being the winning party feature today.

This is by far the best character birthday party I've ever seen! Love the balance between theme and tastefulness (is that a word?)
