The Fairy Princess Party

For my daughter's 4th birthday...A magical fairy princess tea party!

Each girl was given a fairy costume upon entering. Wings, tutu skirt, and halo. Pink, of course!  Fairy picks by Meri Meri. I found them on Amazon and hand "painted" each fairy head with a black sharpie to create raven haired fairies.

Fairy Princess place cards were set at the table for each guest. Place cards & buffet cards by Chickabug.

Almost all the food was pink or had pink in it somewhere: Tea sandwiches shaped as flowers and butterflies had pink sprinkles on them.  I made many sweet treats for this one, too. Pink popcorn, strawberry "fairy" cupcakes,  pink vanilla and pink raspberry marshmallows, butterfly sugar cookies with pink icing and a pink and white toad stool cake.

A dozen sweet fairies sat around a table set with pink plates and real porcelain tea cups found at Distinctive Decor. I hand made flower napkin rings with my daughter. We painted them various shades of pink then glittered them. I also made tulle balls (both for hanging and small ones for the table), butterfly confetti for the table, and butterfly garland. Pink "fairy dust" was sprinkled lightly on the table and each fairy princess received her own fairy dust bottle to take home with her. Each tea cup was filled with Dawson's pink tea for kids. Every girl tried the fruit tea and most really liked it. Of course, we had pink lemonaide and water on hand, too. Fab water bottles are from Chickabug's awesome DIY print outs. Love 'em!!!

Special party moments. We left out all the princess and fairy type toys to encourage play and imagination. It did not go unnoticed by this girlie group! Decorated a big stand-up mirror with flowers and put it in there for them to view themselves. The craft table was set up with wooden star wands (pre-painted in pastels the week b4) for them to decorate, glitter, and glue gems to. This was a big hit! I covered the table with a pink plastic table cloth so clean up was super easy. 

Pinata time! Gave our horse pinata some wings, a pink saddle, and glitter and he now fit in with the theme. Of course, these dainty girls barely dented the thing. Always good to have a pair of scissors on hand to make some easy to break splits!

Yummy edible pinkness!

Face painting was a hit as well as dancing....and eating all those delectable treats!

The birthday cake and wish! A very special day for a very special girl.
