Can we all just agree that costume birthday parties are the best birthday parties? This What Does The Fox Say themed 6^th birthday (yes, based off of the former Youtube sensation, as personally requested by the birthday boy himself) comes to us from mama Harmony, behind Harmony Lynn Photography and Styled For Two:

And as all good birthday parties start, the design for the party began with the invites. They’re the first thing guests see and allow you to carry a theme through each and every detail that comes up.

With the birthday boy being a major breakfast lover, all the desserts were AM related.

Harmony says, This was a really simple table design starting with a paper backdrop, I added black sharpie triangles freehand to mimic the look of wallpaper.  A modern white table and chairs topped with deep rimmed white plates, black flatware, striped napkins, and personalized escort card style menus.  The table runner is a set of 4 placemats simply overlapping each other to create one long runner to perfectly custom fit the smaller table.

From the song: “Hatee” Hotcakes, “Blub” Berries, “Wa-Pow” Waffles, “Dingeringeding” Ding Dongs, and finally the cake is “Tchoffo” Chocolate Cake.

Happy Monday, and happy almost May! Anyone out there planning a kid-friendly Cinco de Mayo as part of this upcoming weekend’s festivities? Carolina of Mint Event Design in Austin whipped up this springy fête inspired by a twist on traditional Mexican colors. Peep the images by Candi Noble to see how she pulled it off!

Carolina enlisted local balloon artist Nate The Great to create a fun Saguro out of balloons.

Ana of J Balloon Fiesta not only created the papel picado decor in their color palette, but these little mason jar labels for the drinks too.

Carolina hooked up with Fete Gazette on these cute DIY cactus cupcake toppers. More details here.

The mini piñata topper is too cute, too!

By now you’ve probably gathered how much we loooove to throw a good baby shower or kids’ bash around here, right? It doesn’t take much to take a party up a notch if you know where to look. The crew at Under the Paper Lantern must know *exactly* what we mean, since all their party décor products are not only so cute, but simple to put together too.

How sweet is the Louise kit for a baby shower or girl’s party? It’s the first of their kits to launch (more soon!), a romantic set of seven lanterns and pompoms in soft pinks and whites. All kits come with everything you need to get this on the wall—hook, nail, string, and instructions.

If you’re looking to create your own custom look though, there are so many unique shades to create the perfect palette with, like this fun scheme. We can totally see mamas choosing a color combo and then decorating the rest of the party based right off these lanterns.

Instant pop of color!

Everything was designed and hand-selected by a mom herself, with other moms in mind and the goal of making it simple and fun to create beautiful spaces. The lanterns and other products range from just over a dollar (!!!) to $19. You can get the entire Louise kit for $24 here. Most items ship the next biz day after you place your order, BTW!

To celebrate the launch of the Paper Lantern Kits, Under the Paper Lantern is offering 100 Layer Cakelet readers free shipping on all products (continental US standard shipping) through July 8, 2016. Just use code 100LAYERCAKELET at checkout.

So fun, huh? Pop over to @underthepaperlantern on Instagram for lots more ideas too!

When Drops Of Honey Designs mentioned they were inspired by Oh Joy for Target (who isn’t?!) for this baby shower for expecting mama + her upcoming girl Lola, we headed straight for Kelli Avila’s photos. Turns out, all those bright colors and modern patterns make for a most perfect party theme.

Also, the : Historic Seven Sycamores Glass Barn? Talk about a beautiful venue.

The Scribble Shoppe made the loveliest simple and sweet signage to go with all the decor and check out this cake by Peace Love Sugar:

Lots of cute ideas that could be used for birthday parties and bridal showers too, in our opinions!
