Ellery's Pinwheels & Polka Dots Birthday Party


Recently I had the great fun of helping with Miss Ellery's 2nd birthday! The party was a Pinwheels & Polka Dots theme and we had a great time planning and decorating for the day! Check out some of the photos of the little details and how we made the day extra special for an extra special girl!
Giant paper pinwheels welcomed guests at the front door.

Pinwheels were all over the party rooms, including in vases and even a bright polka dot watering can.

A polka dot birthday banner was the centerpiece of the dining room, along with some polka dot balloons and more giant pinwheels.
More paper pinwheels and polka dot garlands dressed up the party rooms.
These dessert plates and napkins had all the bright colors and pinwheels we were looking for!


Desserts included pinwheel sugar cookies and funfetti cupcakes in polka dot wrappers topped with pinwheels!


Beverages included brightly colored sodas, with polka dot straws and custom birthday girl cups.


Of course, the kool aid and smaller custom cups were for the kids!
A treat table with custom candy bags were the kiddie favors - oreo ops with brightly colored sprinkles, candy buttons, M&M's, gumballs, sixlets and more filled up this fun table.
Custom lollipops also helped us celebrate the day!
Of course, the mommies need to get a special party favor too - they enjoyed photos of their kids taken in front of the balloon and pinwheel party backdrop. The photos were then placed on handmade clip frames as a keepsake of the day.

Treat bags were secured with paper pinwheel clothespins.
Custom treat bags included this cute poem: "It was so sweet of you to come! Please take some treats to go!"
