Rustic Woodland Party Supplies

A Woodland kids party theme is like a Burberry trench coat in my book – a timeless classic. It’s one of a few themes that can transcend through generations and be updated with the smallest of tweaks, making it a favourite of ours here at Life’s Little Celebrations!

One of the more popular adaptations of this kids party theme we’re seeing across our favourite Instagram accounts is a focus on the rustic and natural elements of an enchanted wood. Bringing the outside in with wooden features, green moss and pops of vibrant red toadstools – it’s an adaptable theme for any kids party, and we’ve found some perfect woodland party supplies from our LLC Vendors to help bring it all together.

The cutest of animals can be incorporated for this kids party woodland theme…from foxes and deers…to bears and raccoons….it’s a great chance to have a bit of fun with some of the partyware and woodland party supplies that is available for this theme at the moment!

Woodland Party Invitations

Cute woodland animals, fairies, toadstools and foliage make a great starting point for your invitations and setting a woodland scene. We love the use of watercolours and hand drawn illustrations for a touch of whimsy.

Woodland Party Decorations

Decorating for a Woodland party theme is all about bringing the outside in (or highlighting nature’s best if hosting outside!). Think lots of greenery with moss and foliage, and wooden accents for a rustic setting amongst the trees.

Fairy Theme

A Fairy theme is such a popular theme for girl’s and although I had done a previous blog post on this theme I decided to re-work it to keep it up to date!

For this theme you could incorporate woodland/garden features or keep it pastel and pretty. You could incorporate glitter, tulle, ribbons or any other whimsical decorations! If going for a woodland feel there are lots of props you could use such as mushroom decorations, wooden cutlery, grass table mats etc.

Here is a selection of some items to help inspire you and help you source some items for this theme!

You can also view my Pinterest board for more inspiration for this theme, and make sure you visit the Children’s Party Directory to find more fantastic vendors when planning this party!
