Back to School Party with Free Printables

I have to admit that when I see all those back to school breakfast bars, I get a little jealous. As a party gal it should be something right up my ally, but I just don't do mornings. In this house, mornings are usually a scramble,especially on the first day of school, so fancy breakfasts are just not in the cards. But an afternoon snack bar? That I can get behind.

I decided to go with theme "Let's get ready for COLORFUL year!"

{Check out how we used this banner for a fun photo op at the end of the post!}

Although I used these printables for our back to school snack session, they would easily work for any school related event like fundraisers, meet and greets, or staff appreciation tables. 

I tried to mix treats with healthy snacks such as apples with peanut butter cups and milk... 

...but if your theme is to make colorful memories, then rainbow lollipops are a must, right?!

I kept the table simple and decorated with some of our new art supplies and flowers. 

The large chalkboard as the background is included in the free printables and super cheap to print up. Just bring the file into Staples and print as an Engineer Print. This size only cost me $4 to print up! How perfect would this be in a classroom??

We had so much fun styling this party and I hope you guys do, too! We've included the party package as well as the chalkboard quote (file includes 8x10, 18x24, 24x36, & 36x48 options)  for FREE here!

Happy planning!

Free Printable Back to School Signs

School is almost in session up here (yay!) and we are kicking off our countdown by offering a bunch of free printables this week. First up are this year's printable first day of school prints. 

Each file has a First Day of School print as well as a coordinating Last Day of School print, so you can easily create those side by side pics at the end of the year. 

The First Day of School signs are done in fall tones, while the Last Day prints have a spring vibe.

There are also two color options to choose from. 

So easy to make! Simply print and pose! I like to glue mine onto a foam core board from the dollar store (cut to size). I add the First Day sign on one side and the Last Day sign on the other. And now that I have both signs, and I can pat myself on the back for already being nine months ahead of the game for the last day ;)

Christmas in July Party

Planning a Christmas wedding? This fun take on a Christmas in July bridal party is what you need in your life. Imagine sipping Christmas cocktails poolside while Christmas music flows through the air. The mistletoe is hung with tropical flowers and palm trees are draped in holiday lights. Is there a better way to get into the spirit of planning a Christmas wedding while the temps are still balmy? I don't think so. 

Nestling Design :: Christmas in July

This party could easily be set for a Baby Shower or Sip and See as having a summer baby can feel like Christmas in July (be sure to include some mocktails for the mommy-to-be!), or just a grown up cocktail party as everyone tries to beat the heat. 

Here's what you need to complete the look: 

Set the mood for your bash with these  tropical holiday invitations or festive Christmas cards

Drape this tassel garland on the dessert table for a festive look

Garnish your holiday drinks with a sprig of rosemary for a winter look

Hang this fun balloon banner above your bar cart

Create a tropical take on the tradition wreath like this one

Make this fun twist on a holiday cheese ball 

Flowers in pineapples make the best centerpieces. Choose red for an added punch of color

Make your signature drink the Saint Nickarita

What ideas have you guys used for a Christmas in July bash? We'd love to hear about them in the comments.

4th of July FREE PRINTABLE

Summer is finally here and you know what that means - warm weather and fireworks!  I am so excited to share with you all a cute labels I made to go along with the treat bags I gave out last year. 

I filled some simple brown bags with popcorn and pretzels to be eaten while the kids watched the fireworks. 

These labels would be super cute on water bottles, sandwich bags, or even a box of sparklers. I've included two designs, one with "Happy 4th" written on it and one without that you can use anytime! 

Best part? They are FREE!

Fiesta // Cinco de Mayo

I am so excited to finally share with you all the details from our Fiesta themed party we threw my youngest back in November. This guy loves tacos more than anyone I know, so naturally he wanted a taco party. I may be a little biased, but isn't he just the cutest little thing that you ever did see in a sombrero?

                                                                 Shop Invitation

I knew right away that I wanted a playful color pallet, so I took colors straight from a typical pinata. To add more fun to the invitations, I sewed on crepe paper to the bottom to give it more of a pinata feel. The invitations set the stage for the rest of the party. 

I made these decorations out of a Pringles can and some streamer!

For the cactus punch, we just mixed green koolaid and sprite, but you can always add some lime sherbet for more fun! 

                                                             Wooden Spoons

I set up a simple little photo prop area. It was fun to snap pictures of the kids to send home with them. 

I always try to include an activity and craft for each children's party. For this one, the kids made maracas, played Pin the Tail on the Donkey and Poke the Cactus (sadly, I didn't get any photos of this, but it entailed balloons filled blown up and stuffed with a piece of candy. The balloons were all taped to a board to create a shape of a cactus. Blindfolded, the kids got to poke a balloon with a toothpick to find what prize they won). 

           Supplies needed for this: Easter eggs, plastic spoons, rice or beans (dry), and tape. 

Every Fiesta needs at least one pinata! Our guests each got take home their own filled with goodies. 

We made our own little pinatas, but you can easily find some on Etsy. Although a little time consuming to make this many, it ended up being a fun family activity.

I had so much fun with this party - I hope you left feeling inspired to throw your own fiesta!

Dinosaur Party Inspiration

 

It’s no secret that I love parties, so when a friend of mine asked for some help coming up with ideas for her son’s dinosaur themed birthday party I jumped at the chance. We started gathering inspiration pictures and it was pretty clear from the start that she wanted to go with a more “earth-y” approach with browns and greens. We started with the invitation design here: 

Here's some of the amazing inspiration we gathered:
