Kokeshi Doll Theme

I’ve seen some really cute Kokeshi doll parties lately which inspired this blog post! It is such a unique party theme to plan for incorporating cherry blossoms, florals, paper fans and parasols. I enjoyed finding the different items to bring this blog post together! I hope you enjoy it

As always don’t forget to visit the children’s party directory for all the vendors you need when planning your children’s celebrations!

 

Invitations/Printables

I love the styles and colours of these collections:

 

 

 

 

Decorations

Parasols can be used creatively in this theme and there are a few different colours in this style available:

 

If cherry blossoms will feature heavily in the decorations you could also use these cherry blossom parasols:

 

 

Love these gorgeous cherry blossom lanterns which you can mix with other hanging decorations:

 

 

 

These gorgeous PAPER flowers would work as beautiful hanging decorations for this theme or you could attach some to branch decor to create a cherry blossom centrepiece:

 

 

A pretty wall decal such as this would work for a backdrop if you love it enough to use it somewhere in your house after the party:

 

Origami cranes work into this theme as well and if you don’t want to DIY you can find some on ETSY to use:

 

 

 

These cute hanging Kimono dolls could be hung down as decorations:

 

 

Tableware:

Pretty cherry blossom tablerunner:

 

 

Love this little noodle box and tag set which you could also use for favours:

 

This whole Wasara range is perfect for this theme:

 

Or use pink/red coloured tableware to tie in with cherry blossoms:

 

 

These floral straws would look lovely if you’re focusing on floral prints for this theme:

 

 

Sweet Treats

This divine range of coloured candy jars would be perfect to bring that pop of colour to the candy bar at the party!:

These pretty cupcake wrappers would help theme any cupcakes you are using:

 

 

These treat sticks are gorgeous to use for your cake pops!:

 

 

ETSY has some sellers who make really cute cake topper keepsakes such as this Kokeshi peg doll. Perfect if you want to make your own cake but want a unique topper:

 

 

Other themed items:

If you’re looking for some activities for the kids to do at the party, these kits are great to help the kids make their own kokeshi dolls to take home:

 

 

 

These mini fans would be perfect to help decorate favour packages or mini bottles perhaps?

 

For larger paper fans you could use for decorations or the kids to play with:

 

 

 

If origami isn’t your thing, buy pre-made origami cranes to use for decorations:
