This stunning EASTER THEMED VINTAGE BAKE SALE PARTY was submitted by Mandy McCready of Koko Blush & Company.

Looking at this party is making me wonder what country or planet I can move to where they celebrate Easter sooner than next March because I am absolutely dying over every detail and thinking I’m going to have to throw an Easter party. Now. Such a beautiful celebration!

Some of the stellar details to look out for in this vintage Easter party are:
  • The assorted vintage milk glass stands used to display the candy, favors and cakes
  • The children playing croquet as a party activity
  • The idea of the dessert display being a “bake sale”
  • The amazing print work and designs
  • The party attire
  • and MORE!
This is what Mandy said about planning the party- “We had so much fun working on the concept and styling of this Easter/Vintage Bake Sale themed party with Loralee Lewis. We believe that it is only through great photographers that our products, styling and designs are brought to life. Many thanks to Lookie Loo Photography for capturing the precious details of the event.”

Here’s what Kenna had to say about planning the party- “I grew up loving “The Golden Egg Book” by Margaret Wise Brown. It has all the things I’m fond of- a jewel toned color palette, a vintage vibe and an adorable story about two unlikely animals becoming friends. So, how could I NOT put together a Spring shoot based on this adorable little book? Hannah of Hannah’s Cookies and Treats and I decided to combine our talents and put together this lovely little dessert table with the wonderful Christina of Moments Captured Photography behind the camera photographing her daughter Julie and her 3 friends having fun stuffing themselves with some sweet treats! For the décor I thought a pennant flag banner for the front of the table made of actual “The Golden Egg Book” pages was a must have. I love the way it themes the table right away. I came across both the glitter eggs and the large golden egg at Target and fell in love- they were a perfect fit with the coloring of the book. Another easy (and inexpensive) décor idea I used were the paper doilies to create the scalloped look on the awning. Making the silverware bags for the girls was a fun and quick little project. The cute paper baggies included their napkin, a jumbo paper straw, glitter fork and a cute felt decoration clipped to the front. I live for little details like these! They turned out super cute and made everyday party items a bit more special. We wanted to keep all the desserts as themed to the book as possible which was a fun little challenge for us both. We had Garden Carrots in Push Pops (brownies with sugar filled carrots), Tulip Cakes drizzled with melting chocolates and topped in sugar (made from Little Debbie Tulip Cakes- a no bake idea everyone can make!) and plenty of character based cookies as well as Hannah’s beautiful egg cookies that were almost too pretty to eat! Our cake pops were tied with frilly and fun ribbons and our Peanut Butter Nests made out of chow mein noodles (SO easy!) were a total hit with the girls (and their moms!). Other desserts included chocolate dipped grahams (perfect for kids!), mini cupcakes, peeps, different sizes of robin eggs and don’t let me forget the cups of cotton candy which were the hit of the table- go figure!”

Happy Easter! This lovely EASTER EGG HUNT SPRING PLAY DATE PARTY was submitted and styled by Sharon Pardon of Cakes by Sharon.

I love all of the details & party ideas in this Easter play date celebration! A few of my favorite elements are:
  • The fabric strip wreath
  • The soda bottles dressed up with white paper doilies
  • The mini suitcases stacked and filled with bunny and egg shaped cookies
  • and MORE!
Here’s what Sharon said about planning the party- “I loved putting this party together because Easter is one of my favourite holiday celebrations, there’s something about it that is so fun and colourful. I knew i wanted to do pink and blues and make it very girly for my two girls, who invited some friends home after school. They enjoyed drinks, chocolate, of course, as well as cake, cupcakes and cookies. We did some Easter crafts and had an Easter egg hunt.”

This is what Alexis said about planning the party- “We were thrilled to pair up with Pottery Barn Kids Gardens Mall!  It was an Easter Event where kids came by to enjoy crafts and sweet treats.  Gingham, pinwheels and pastel colors set an Easter feel and adorable bunnies, ducks, books and Easter bags and signs served as not only decoration, but also showcased the amazing Easter items that our guest could purchase at Pottery Barn Kids.

Mini egg cartons were filled with cake balls that replicated colored Easter eggs. Parisian Macarons were not only delicious, but adorable when their typical circle shape was changed to an egg shape with the most darling designs.  The Chocolate covered Oreos with fondant carrots on top were so adorable, they were almost too cute to eat, but everyone got over that very quickly!  There were mini cupcakes frosted in a variety of colors and cupcakes with edible toppers to match the adorable custom printables from Gretchen at Three Little Monkeys Studio designed for the event. The combination brought together an adorable and delicious dessert table.

The kids enjoyed activities like decorating personalized event bookmarks with beads, guessing the amount of chocolates in the jar to win the jar, making personalized Easter purses and putting together foam crafts.  Over 60 children were our guests and each one went home with items like sweet treats, pinwheels, handmade hair bows and Pottery Barn Peter Rabbit cups to say Happy Easter! We had so much fun.  A big thank you Pottery Barn Kids Gardens Mall and The Gardens Mall, but especially to our little guests that made this event a blast.”

This is what Maureen said about the party- “We are so excited about our New Classic Pastel Easter Collection! We designed the collection in classic pastel colors with hues of gold incorporated, since we are loving the metallics mixed with pastel trend. The collection boasts gorgeous classic Easter silhouettes mixed with a basket weave pattern, wavy line pattern, polka dots and stripes.

This year we are excited to bring on a fabulous new contributor, Ellen of Ellen Bessette Events.  Ellen mentioned that she was hosting an Easter Party and we were excited to see what she styled using our printables. With my trip to Dubai and us being busy with other projects, Adria and I knew we didn’t have time to style an Easter party so we were thrilled to have Ellen run with it. Boy did she do a wonderful job!

Ellen has the most gorgeous backyard setting and it looked like the perfect day for an Easter Party. Don’t you just adore the ruffle fringe streamer backdrop?

Read on for the Party Details, told by Ellen

‘With metallics being a hot trend this Spring,  I  was thrilled that Anders Ruff designed their Printable Easter collection with hues of gold! I loved mixing the gold in with the traditional Easter colors of pinks, blues and greens.

For the table tops, I painted mini paper mache Easter baskets a rich gold and personalized with a 2″ logo circle. To bring out the metallics, I filled with golden Easter bunnies and golden eggs. I made placemats out of their coordinating printable patterned paper to help tie in their collection along with straw flags and 2″circles on the glasses. I added some touches of gold with some simple gold sequins on the plates and down the middle of the table. Some of my favorite elements on the tables were the fresh tulips to match their collection, the DIY Easter Egg chandelier and DIY polka dot napkins.  I found the sparkly eggs at Michaels and knew I had to find a way to use them in the party.

The dessert table is always so much fun to put together and easily done with Anders Ruff’s Printable Easter Collection. My favorites were the bunny s’mores along with the cupcake wrappers and place cards. I had my baker add touches of gold to the cake and I added a large golden bunny and lots of golden eggs to the table to tie in the metallics. For the backdrop,  I used crepe paper and  gold ribbon to tie in the colors and dressed it up with the Happy Easter banner. The designs are so cute you can’t go wrong with them!

The beverage table had the Happy Easter sign framed along with some simple flowers. I had a friend personalize a beverage tub and napkin holder to go with the theme and left some straws with straw flags out for everyone’s pink lemonade.

For food, we had bunny shaped turkey sandwiches, mini hummus containers with carrots, Cheetos filled bags to look like carrots and lots of fruit and sweet goodies.

The kids stayed busy decorating and painting plaster egg magnets. We had a petting zoo with sweet bunnies, chicks, ducks and baby goats and we ended the party with a successful egg hunt ending in a lucky person finding the Golden Egg!’”
