Ania, the creator of 2 Love Birds is a graphic designer, who has worked with children’s brands, fashion, packaging and product developing for almost 10 years. She also has qualifications in interior decoration and business.

She tells me – “I love blogging about everything sweet design and party on my blog 2lovebirdsblog.com. I’m also a regular contributor to the Oh it’s Perfect blog. I’m always looking for a creative project and a new challenge”.

You can really see this creative flair and passion through all of Ania’s work at 2 Love Birds! I love this gorgeous range and the colour scheme – a mix of modern and vintage for this High Tea design:

A backdrop can make such a difference to a dessert table and 2 Love Birds have designed some amazing backdrops to set the scene for fantastic party tables:

So how did 2 Love Birds originate? Ania explains – “A couple of years ago I had a task of designing wedding stationery for my own wedding. The enjoyment of designing and co-ordinating the visual aspects of the big day started an idea … a year after 2 Love Birds were born. 2 Love Birds designs are fresh, fun and on trend. I hope that through my designs I can make parties that extra bit special and memorable”.

 

Here are a few more of the designs you can find over at the 2 Love Birds website. I love all the colour combinations Ania chooses to use for the designs:

Christmas Showcase

Leading up to Christmas so many of the businesses in the Life’s Little Celebration’s children’s party directory have such fantastic items on offer!

I wanted to find a way to share these all in one place for my facebook followers/blog readers to view! So I created the CHRISTMAS SHOWCASE ALBUM on my facebook page.

In the one album you can browse; Christmas decorations, printables, gifts, desserts and more! Everything you need whether you are planning a special Christmas party or just need some fun printables to use for classmate/workmate gifts or letters for Santa!

Mother’s Day Printable Ideas

Now that Easter is over some of you may be turning your attention to Mothers Day!

So here is a collection of printables I’ve found to help you get started (some of which are free) for planning a celebration! Some ideas for what you could plan:

– An afternoon tea with a small group of fellow mum’s during the week

– A luncheon with your own mother/mother in law/grandmother or other motherly role models in your life

– A breakfast for yourself and the family and involve the kids during the week in cutting and preparing the printables

– Spoil a new mother or a mother going through a difficult time with a special meal or mini dessert spread!

– Have your kids bake some cupcakes for their aunties and Grandmothers and prepare the printables with them to present with the special treats

Whatever you choose to do, I hope that Mother’s Day will be a day where you are celebrated and you can also celebrate this amazing gift of being a mother!

Little Birdy Theme

With spring just around the corner, now is a perfect time to be planning a cute birdy theme party for your little one! This is a party theme which can take on a myriad of different colour schemes so I’ll be sharing various items which you could use regardless of which colour path you go down!

I haven’t focused on plates/cups/napkins etc in this post since the tableware could be based around many different colour options! However perhaps you may draw some colour inspiration from some of the invitation ideas I have featured below.

First up is this popular Alannah Rose invitation with a cute red bird featured. There are a few matching items available to go along with this design as well:

Lala Bird invitation – Alannah Rose

Printables are a great option if you want a range of matching stationary for your party! They keep everything coordinated which makes life easier for you as you don’t have to find matching invites/cupcake toppers/banners etc

This vibrant polkadot birdie printable collection is a delightful option for a girl:

Polkadot Birdie – Style Me Gorgeous

 

Close up of Polka Dot birdie printable – Style Me Gorgeous

However the little birdy theme can be used for boys as well, and this Owl & Bird party printable in a blue and green colour scheme is definitely the way to go:

Owl & Bird Printable – Style Me Gorgeous

 

For a different colour palette I love this bright Lovebird theme with a blue/pink/green combo:

Lovebird Printables – Fairydust Stylish Stationary

To decorate the party space think pretty birdies, rustic birdcages and lovely birdhouses! Here are some to get you inspired:

These birdy buntings are so sweet and a great alternative to the flag bunting for this party.

Handmade Golly Gosh Bird bunting – Twiggi

 

Bright pink and chocolate bird garland – Paperklip

For another cute idea, how about these Bird mobiles to hang down around your party area or over the table?

Tiger Tribe bird mobile – Twiggi

For something really different which would look cute in a nursery afterwards, have a look at this delightful fabric birdcage!

Birdhouses are a great decoration either to place on your table or to hang around the party area. Both these below birdhouses have the option for hanging and would look lovely hanging from a tree outside:

 

You can’t get prettier than this handpainted wooden birdhouse!

Birdhouse dangly – Purkilicious

Another great option for decoration is some tree decor

Dress up your bird cages and trees with some delightful hanging birds.

This hanging bird tealight holder would be beautiful even without the use of the candle:

Or these fabulous felt birdies would look so pretty as part of your party decor and could even be used as favours. The tree is also available to order as another alternative to a tree decoration:

So very very precious! Beautiful handpainted birds:

This cute cake bunting is so colourful, would match a few different colour schemes and brighten up any cake!

If you are making cookies for the little one’s then these cookie cutters in different shapes would be great for creating an array of different sizes and colours of birdy cookies!

Set of 3 bird cookie cutters – Sugartime

This footed bowl is so lovely to hold some great treats in but I also chose it for this theme as it reminds me of a beautiful large bird bath you would see in a garden of a mansion in the English countryside! Or is it just me who picks up these things? = )

Decor bon bon round footed bowl – Sweet Style

For a sweet touch on your table you could use these card holders for your food/dessert labels which also make cute decorations:

Love bird card holder – Dabble in design

 

Birdcage card & tealight holder – Pink Frosting

Have a look at this colourful table runner which would match a wide range of tablecloth colour options underneath and could be used for boys or girls:

For favours boxes these birdhouses are so so lovely aren’t they?

These birdy paperclips would be great to attach onto a thank you tag:

For a girly touch then these pocket mirrors would definitely send your guests home smiling!

A fun alternative for a favour are these colourful bird whistles:

Well I hope these ideas have given you some inspiration for a Little Birdy party to celebrate your little one! It really is such a sweet theme with many unique touches available out there and such flexibility with what colour combinations you can choose from. I hope you enjoy putting it all together!
