This past weekend, we threw an amazing Frozen themed party for my 3 year old daughter Sarah. Honestly, when she picked the theme, I wasn’t really all that excited. But as I sat down to make my Frozen Pinterest board (which I do and highly recommend doing for every party), I realized this could be one beautiful party. Shades of Tiffany blue, white and silver, oh my!

The focal point of all my parties is the sweets table. This is where the magic begins. It might seem overwhelming, but I’ve developed a formula–the basic elements–and apply it to every party. It makes it much easier than starting from scratch every time.

• Table Covering. I tend to go visually “simple” on the table covering, so the sweets display doesn’t get lost. In this case, I chose an inexpensive silver sequined table cloth with a turquoise runner for some contrast.
• Sweet Table Backdrop. Sometimes, it’s a literal backdrop, as pictured here. Other times, it’s crepe paper, ribbons, or other things. This backdrop I designed (and I’m happy to design one for you, too! In any theme…just head on over to my Etsy shop.)
• Cake/cake stand. I’m a sucker for a pretty cake stand, and I usually end up getting a new one for every party (and then I sell them afterwards! After all, who has room to store so many cake stands?). But this one was so pretty, I think I’ll hang on to it. My talented friend made the cake itself, and I embellished it with fondant snowflakes, rock candy sticks, and Disney Frozen figurines. Made for one gorgeous

• Cupcake display. These are a lot of fun, too! Sometimes I scour thrift shops and make my own tiered displays. I’ve even built cupcake stands out of legos! (More on the Lego party another time, I promise.) But this time, I wanted the cupcakes themselves to be the star, so I opted for a simple clear acrylic three tiered stand.
