Baby Girl's Lalaloopsy themed 7th birthday party was SEW cute!
Come in and see how I managed to pull it off:
Come in and see how I managed to pull it off:
The first thing that I did was to go through this pile of 12 million Lalaloopsy dolls and decide how to use them as party decor :D :D :D
I ended up using a combination of milk glass and clear glass to display them. The larger dolls were easy to pose but the minis and tinies needed to be contained. For those I used cylinder vases.

Let's take a look at where the dolls ended up:
Dining Table Display
Here we have Crumbs Sugar Cookie, Sprinkle Spice Cookie, a vase full of minis and a vase full of tinies.
Kitchen Table
This table featured Jewel Sparkles, Smile E. Wishes, Cloud E. Sky and a jar full of mini pets.
Living Room Table Centerpiece
Next to another jar of minis and the mini ferris wheel, sat Tiny Might.
Gift Table
Beauty Fairest, Marina Anchors and Cape Riding Hood were happy to keep an eye on the gifts :)
Babies in the Corner.....
(Crumbs Sugar Cookie, Scoops Waffle Cone and Mittens Fluff' n' Stuff)
.....and a whole bunch of the 18 inch ended up on the dining room window sil :)
Top: Harmony B. Sharp, Peanut Big Top, Bea Spells-A-Lot, Frost I. C. Cone, Toasty Sweet Fluff and Jewel Sparkles.
Bottom: Little Bah Peep, Bow Bah Peep, Pepper Pots 'N' Pans, Stumbles Bumps 'N' Bruises, Twirly Figure Eight, Crumbs Sugar Cookie, Trace E. Doodles and Fluffy Pouncy Paws.

Now that you know what the dolls were doing, lets look at the rest of the decor:
Table Coverings
For the table tops I layered our pink and white party colors. Each table started with a pink plastic table cloth that I topped with a length of pink and white polka-dot wrapping paper. On top of that was a smaller length of white table cloth (cut from a standard sized plastic table covering). After the doll centerpieces were in place I used pink buttons as table scatter.

Balloons
For the balloons I combined white with two shades of pink.

Button Decor
The paper plate buttons were a cute addition to the front door and kitchen.

Vanilla Candle
I like to have a candle burning when guests arrive. That in addition to my cupcake scented wax cubes, the house smells delicious!
After removing the label from the candle jar, I taped on a small strip of that polka-dot wrapping paper. A little glue for the buttons and you have a custom candle that matches the rest of the party.
Pink & White
Cups, plates and napkins are such an easy way to carry out your party theme through simple color. I always purchase more than one shade of napkin and layer them like in the picture. This time (because I made paper plate buttons) I ended up with three different colors of paper plates as well. I stacked them in a pattern (light pink, white, hot pink) so that as guests took them the different colors would be equally represented. Good design is all in the details, people ;)
I also took the time to add a bit of wrapping paper to the cup that was holding the forks. It's little touches like these that really complete a look.
Food Station
Tiny houses, 18 inch pets and paper plate buttons helped to make the food station a fun and whimsical place.
Drink Station
Coral Sea Shells helped to serve tea, water and soda to all of the guests.
Dessert Station
Out desserts were accompanied by a mini dollhouse, a large Blossom Flower Pot doll and more button decor.
Candies
I purchased these candies to help decorate the tops of the cupcakes. I thought the leftovers would look cute in a milk glass bowl with the rest of the desserts.
Cake
The large guest cake and mini personal cake were triple layer vanilla with vanilla icing.
Cupcakes
This year's cupcakes were strawberry with pink strawberry icing. Most were topped with chocolate candies but a few I decorated with pink sprinkle candies and striped candles.
I'll have more details to share about these cakes soon.
I hope you enjoyed the party so far, thanks for stopping by!
