Mermaid Party Supplies

I LOVE a Mermaid party theme….I think it’s because of the gorgeous colour combinations that you often find with this theme….coral pinks, aqua blues, mint green, lavender…I love it all.

It is very easy to style with shells and other sea related decorations however I don’t even think you HAVE to go overboard with lots of sea related decor. You can just go with a very sea inspired colour scheme and using lots of these colours throughout your party alone can create a sea feel.

Here are some mermaid party supplies which will help you on your way to dreaming up a mermaid celebration for your child – many of course are from vendors listed in the Life’s Little Celebration’s children’s party directory!

Pottery Barn Pretties

The first week of May.

That is when Pottery Barn, Pottery Barn Kids, West Elm and Williams-Sonoma will be opening their doors in Bondi, Sydney!

I know I’m not alone in being excited about this so I thought I’d do some browsing and put together some Pottery Barn goodies that will hopefully be making their way down under and that some of you may just love for your celebrations!

Of course our Australian party boutiques already have a stunning range of cake stands, drink dispensers and candy jars and so I haven’t included a huge range of Pottery Barn’s range of those items in this blog post.

I’ve found Pottery Barn has a LOT of nautical and sea inspired items, perfect for any beach-side inspired party theme. Love this fisherman’s table throw which would make a perfect table runner for a Nautical or Mermaid theme party.

 

Fishermans net table throw - Pottery Barn

 

They have a few goodies for an ice-cream soiree such as this cute lazy susan to fill with toppings:

Ice cream lazy susan - Pottery Barn Kids

 

Another cute item for keeping small utensils & straws in:

Galvanized condiment tray - Pottery Barn Kids

 

There are a few items perfect for setting up a little lemonade stand at a celebration such as this sweet Lemonade sign!:

Lemonade sign - Pottery Barn Kids

 

These mason jar jugs are perfect for a lemonade stand as well:

I love these little wooden pedestals. They would look great on a dessert table for a vintage theme or woodland theme:

Blonde woode pedestals - Pottery Barn

 

Of course Pottery Barn has many lovely cake stands, cupcake stands & drink dispensers! Here are just a few I found which stuck out:

 

Manchester tiered stand - Pottery Barn

 

Which colour would you pick? Too many options…!

Colourful rhodes drink dispenser stand - Pottery Barn

 

How cute is this drink dispenser stand?!

Lifeguard drink dispenser stand - Pottery Barn

 

Some elegant options:

Caroline tiered stand - Pottery Barn

Again more sea-inspired items like this range of serving bowls:

These colourful trays would be perfect for displaying treats, or turn them upside down and use them as risers!:

Rectangular lacquered trays - West Elm

 

Pottery Barn Kids has so many lovely items especially nursery & bedroom decor. However if your little girl loves tea-parties then you can’t go past this sweet tea set & amazingly lovely tea cart!

Porcelain tea set - Pottery Barn Kids

Can’t forget the boys I know…! This pirate chest would be not only a fantastic party prop but work as good toy storage as well:

Ok I better stop there before I send us all into more debt! Don’t even get me started on their home decor & storage products!

This is just honestly such a small collection of the extensive range Pottery Barn & all the Williams-Sonoma brands have to feed all of our partyware-addictions!

Are you counting down the days until they open in Australia?

Are you planning a trip to Sydney just to visit when they open?

Time to start saving our pennies!

These bottles come with lids which have space for a straw which means less spill & easy drinking for little hands. I love them!
