Kite Themed 2nd Birthday Party


Come fly away with me as you look at this darling celebration. This KITE THEMED 2ND BIRTHDAY PARTY was submitted by Andressa Hara of Twinkle Twinkle Little Party.

Here is what Andressa said about her event- "The inspiration for this party came from a cute 3x3 kite frame I received from a very sweet couple as a baby shower gift when I was expecting Connor. I knew from that day I had to do something special with it considering I am a big fan of kites of all types and colors. It brings me back memories growing up in Brazil and having a brother who loved to fly kites out in the streets - good times with not too many distractions :)
I wanted to put together something very simple because all the little guests were younger than my little boy and I didn't want to overwhelm the little tots with so much sugar :)
The dessert table consisted of plain vanilla cupcakes, milk shooters for the parents, cake, candy jars filled with gumballs.
I designed:
1)Goody bag toppers "clouds" (cotton candy) , kite tails (sour belt) and sundrops(lemon drops).
2)Chocolate wrappers - I placed standard size Hershey's chocolate bar in Wilton's clear treat bags, wrapped the custom chocolate wrappers and tied the bags with a ribbon.
3)Tags for yellow treat bags I purchased at Michael's which they filled with candies to take home.

4)Bubble labels (Bubbles bought at Party City)
5)Water Labels

I also built kites and we had a kite decorating station for the little tots - glitter glue, stickers and mini pompoms.

I made party hats using textured scrapbook paper bought at Jo Ann's, embellished the hats using leftover ribbon and attached a 3D tag which said "Fligh High".
 
Fresh lemonade, juice pouches, ham and cheese sandwich, and pasta salad were served."

Cupcake, cake, sugar cookies - local bakery
Cloud cake pops - Simply cupcakes of Tampa
Balloons- Party Scene
Gable Boxes - Michael's
Book shelf - Michael's

Olá! Adorei, aliás adoro o seu trabalho... Sou muito fã mesmo! Toda vez que vou fazer uma festa visito seu site. É um baú de ideias divinas. Legal saber que você passou a infância aqui no Brasil (espero que nao tenha esquecido a língua portuguesa.. risos)
Aqui no Brasil não tem esta cultura de transformar uma simples festa em algo lindo e marcante e também não encontramos alguns materias por aqui.
Bom, Parabéns pelo lindo trabalho e quando eu tiver alguma dúvida posso perguntar?...risos
Beijos
