{Party Inspiration} Fun Kid's Easter Table

This year we are having all the kids in the family (about 6 total) come over for an Egg Hunt!  I thought it would be really fun to set up a table where they can snack on sweets and also color and decorate some of their own eggs.  I figured I would save time and money and create a mock up of the table to share with you and hopefully pass along some budget friendly ideas and inspiration for you to create a festive space for your own little cottontails!

I loved the colors of the plastic eggs that I found at Target and Dollar Tree so I wanted to use a lot of color for the table.  I started with a simple tablescape with a springtime vinyl table cloth that I already had on hand.  Vinyl is perfect for wiping up spills and messes especially when egg decorating. Mixing and matching different plates and napkins, I created colorul place settings for the kids to eat their snacks on.  I used purple plastic plates for chargers and our own spring green ceramic plates, then folded colorful napkins diagonally and placed a plastic fork on top.  The napkins were a steal at Ikea for .88 cents a pack.  I sprinkled the table with some of the party tags I designed for Easter, as well.



For the centerpiece, I crafted an Easter egg tree out of foam moss and styrofoam Easter Eggs.  The trunk of the tree is a paper straw and the base is a bucket I already had in my party inventory and used a styrfoam form to anchor it.  This was a simple project and cost less than $7 to make!


Ever since I saw these Cupcake Poppers here - I've been dying to make them.  Keep in mind, all of this work was done in the wee hours of the morning, so it's not my best, but WHO CARES - the kids are gonna eat 'em up regardless!


The kids will hunt for plastic eggs outside, but indoors, they will have fun decorating edible eggs.  For this table, I filled small bowl with grass filler and hard boiled eggs, then set out dye and crayons and markers. 


I love popcorn baskets for parties - they're my new thing.  I made these with the pattern paper I designed for my Easter Egg Hunt collection and added a paper medallion to the side - it reminded me of a daisy!  To make the box into a basket I added the handle and filled it with grass and chocolate eggs.





Here is a few view of the table.  I hope you were inspired to create something fun & festive for your Easter table!



Oh and if you want to have your own Easter Egg Hunt - here are some free printables for you - HAPPY EASTER!

Little Aviator Party Kit Ready to Fly!

I am soooo excited!  I've been busy assembling some new party collections for my Etsy shop.  I'm just about ready to add the Little Aviator party kit to the store!  Here's an early look at what I'll soon be offering:

I can't remember exactly where I first saw address wraps - other than on a confirmation delivery from the post office - but how cute are these?!!!  The ones shown in the picture read you're invited - and work for invitations that are hand delivered, but the ones that will go on sale will have fill-in areas for the sender and addressee.


All my party mess!!!!


A party hat 'work in progress'!


Who doesn't love circle tags????  You can do so much with them!


I'm all about pennant banners lately.


I'm also all about luggage style party bag tags....I first created some for a client stationed in Japan and have been hooked ever since! 


I love this collection and can't wait to post it to my shop!  YEAH!
