The Birthday Party Plan...

Well it's that time of year again.... My twin girls will be turning 6 this week and they're having a party with their school friends on the weekend.  It's pretty exciting as it's their first "real" birthday party.  What I mean is, other years it's either just been family or basically our own friends with kids their age.  But this is the first party with their "own" friends.

So, here's what the plan is so far..... the theme is a High Tea (in pink and red) and the invitations have been handed out...


As each child arrives, my Mum is going to do a bit of face painting... a cupcake on their cheek


Then we'll play a game or two... I haven't decided what yet but maybe musical statues, pass the parcel, pin the cherry on the cupcake... (any other suggestions would be great)

Next for the high tea, I'm going to set up a long table with a pink table cloth, red napkins and plates and red scatter hearts...


with red and pink Tissue Paper Pom Poms hanging over the table...


They're going to eat Sushi-style sandwiches...




Mini Cupcakes with little love heart toppers...




and the cake (at this stage anyway) is going to be a tea pot cake...


Lastly, for the party bags I've bought some Red and Pink Paper Party Bags...


I've got the Party Bag tags...


and I haven't decided exactly what to put inside yet but here's a few of my ideas...

Momiji Stickers (from Kawaii for You of course)...


a few lollies...


a cookie on a stick - love heart...


a glitter gel pen...


and a ring...



So, that's the plan.  Now we just need to see if I can pull it off!!

WARNING:  I'm doing all of this myself so don't expect the finished product to look quite as beautiful as the images above.... he he he

**Our Market Special at Mathilda's...

P.S.  Just forgot to mention on the last post that our Market Special for Saturday is....

(at Mathilda's Market on Sat 19th June only)


Please note Red Hood and Snow White are currently out of stock, however we do have some gorgeous new Pinocchio sets that aren't on our website yet...


They're normally $49.95 per set but on Saturday they'll be only $39.95

Mathilda's Market is on again this weekend....

It's that time again so if you live in Brisbane, make sure you come and visit us at Mathilda's Market this Saturday...


For those of you who haven't shopped at Mathilda's before, this is a fabulous niche market that offers unique, stylish and affordable baby & kids goods that are lovingly handmade or manufactured. The retailers are handpicked to ensure an exciting product range. It's a kid's shopping heaven.

Better yet, most of the retailers do not have a shop front, so you know you'll find something special, not available anywhere else. With over 70 retailers, yummy food and kids’ entertainment - Mathilda’s Market is one of Brisbane’s best shopping destinations for the little ones.  Click here for a list of stallholders.

You'll find us down the back of "The Tote" hall which is the first one you come to.  We look forward to seeing you there!

Hopefully we'll have these gorgeous new string lights in stock for Saturday...
