Planning a “small world” Party + giveaway

November 1, 2012 in All Posts, birthday parties, disney at home, giveaways, Jessica by Jessica McConnel

Since my daughter’s room is “it’s a small world” themed (read more about it by clicking here), and her favorite ride at Disneyland is “it’s a small world” (yes, at 9 months she cried when we got out of the boat), I thought it would be fun to throw Carolina a themed first birthday party along the same lines! But, as a full-time teacher, mom of two, and someone who was packing their home to move, I needed it to be less time intensive, yet still cute and creative!  I know there are many parents who can relate! 

Cue my sister-in-law, Jeran, the queen of parties, decorating, cooking, and generally everything. I asked her to do a little long-distance planning for me. Although our babies were born 3 days apart, and she was in the midst of planning her daughter Olivia’s party as well, she took the very few ideas I gave her and did much more with it than I could ask or hope for. 

She created a totally custom party by designing the bunting, labels, and invitation specifically for me. She made her suggestions and asked my opinion along the way, until it was absolutely perfect! Not only did she design the paper products (which were conveniently messaged to me, so I could send them off to be printed), but she also set up a mock party in her home and took pictures for me to see how it all could look altogether. I love seeing how the labels could be used to be cupcake toppers or glass decorations. And I love LOVE the globes as table decor and the little matching globe cookies as treats!


You can see and read more of the “it’s a small world” party on her blog Oleander and Palm. And if you love the idea, you can even get the labels, bunting, and invitation (customized to fit your little Disneyland fan) from her etsy shop.


 



I’m looking forward to seeing how the party comes together from my end of things, and looking forward to a very memorable first birthday for my baby girl! Check here and here to see more amazing Disney parties and planning. 

Oleander & Palm also has darling
