Hopping good finds for your Easter celebrations

Easter is just around the corner, which means I can finally justify eating hot cross buns and chocolate for breakfast…right?

Second only to Christmas, Easter is a favourite time of year for many as amongst many reasons…it’s another opportunity to put our creative hats on for friends and family or create something simple but special for the kids.

So who better than our talented LLC Vendors to ask for some inspiration and exciting new finds to make this Easter one to remember.

New Years Eve Party Feature

I hope you’ve enjoyed a wonderful Christmas celebration with your friends and family! Now with New Years Eve coming up soon it’s the perfect time to share more images and details from this bright and fun New Years Eve shoot featured in Issue 3 of our e-magazine! Styled by Dream a Little Dream events we absolutely LOVE the pink spin on what is normally a black/white/gold affair and love how kids were incorporated into the celebrations.

New Years Eve when you have young kids is so different to before kids – but when they get to the age where they can stay up, then it’s the perfect time to host a celebration with another family or 2 and let the kids have fun with balloons, crackers and a few treats- and that is what this party feature is all about!

Enjoy the images and get inspired for either a New Years Eve celebration or any fun party theme for 2018 starting with this bright invitation to get the par-tay happening!

 

 

Plinths have been a huge trend this year and we love the clear plinth look here filled with balloons and the way all the bright colours just pop against the white background!

 

 

The desserts continued the bright pink New Years Eve party look:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Such a fun range of balloons and party decor were used in this shoot and as you can see, the kids just went crazy for it all!:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The result…an amazing and pretty mess of balloons, confetti and crackers!

I’m dreaming of a pink Christmas!

When we think of Christmas, do the colours red and green always pop into your head? These days, ANY colour scheme can work including a pretty pink colour scheme which We Create used for this gorgeous Christmas shoot for Issue 3 of Celebrating Little One’s Magazine (it’s free to read HERE)

The little kids feasted on an array of desserts including donuts, macarons, mini trifles, eclairs and of course a gorgeous cake! I love the touches of rose gold and the pretty table setting!

Party Feature: ‘The Night Before Christmas’

The night before Christmas contains wonder, awe and air of excitement that isn’t matched by any other night of the year for the kids.

So I love that this Life’s Little Celebrations collaboration Christmas shoot for Issue 3 of Celebrating Little One’s Magazine by Celebrations by Alysia was focused on Christmas Eve via the “Twas the night before Christmas” theme.

In gorgeous classic Christmas colours of red and white the desserts were displayed as a true midnight feast! I love the way the backdrops were created to appear as though there was a true Christmas scene through the windows!

Everything from the customised baubles, to the intricate Christmas cake to the Night before Christmas cookie mixes and the Christmas eve themed cake toppers made the theme come alive alongside the array of desserts.
