I'm really excited to be guest blogging today at StixNpops! Elizabeth collaborated with me on this 'Little Monster' Party' for Bird's Party Magazine. Her marshmallow pops are so much fun and they were a great addition to the shoot. I really appreciate Elizabeth letting me hang out on her blog today. I hope you all enjoy the party. I am moving into the niche of boutique party styling, so keep an eye out for my new blog, coming soon. And now, onto the party details!
Because the color palette is very bright and exciting, I
chose to let those colors really pop off bright white linens and platters. I
wanted to add another pattern to the polka dots, so I went with stripes; always
a nice complement. You can imagine how excited I was when I found striped
wrapping paper in the exact same colors as the darling ‘Little Monsters’
printable collection I was designing to.

While I am careful to not design so literally to a theme, the hanging
installment of koosh monsters and balls was too fun to pass up! I knew the
moment I saw those, what I wanted to do with them. They were so full of color
and texture and added the quirk factor I’m always looking for. I spent a long
time hanging them at various heights and levels and on different planes to get the
right balance.
TIP: Take pictures
with your camera as you set up to get a different view of what your table looks
like. This helped me find the balance when hanging everything, so I knew what
it would look like in pictures.
