Butterflies are such a sweet theme for a birthday party – the colours, decorations and styling can take any number of roads from soft and sweet to bright and bubbly.  My daughter, Penelope loves the colour fuchsia pink (who doesn’t?!), so when she chose a butterfly theme for her fourth birthday we really had fun bringing this theme to life.  Being Canberra and August, unfortunately we couldn’t set up the party in our backyard and use the garden as a beautiful backdrop, but if you are fortunate enough to celebrate your child’s party during warmer months, I would highly recommend using the trees, shurbs and even your clothes line as props to decorate for your butterfly themed party. 

I am a bit of a frazzled mum right now with a big move happening next week, so we spent less time styling than we normally would, but the party came together just beautifully even with lack of time!  Here are some photos from our indoor butterflies themed fourth birthday party:

Instead of balloons, we decided to use lanterns and paper daisies as decorations.  We used butterfly themed garlands, bunting, flags and other paper decorations to create a beautiful fairy-like effect.  The themed party supplies are from the ever-popular Mod Butterfly range at Pink Frosting (where else?).  The gorgeous laser-cut cupcake wrappers are from the range of cupcake decorations at Pink Frosting’s online cupcake decoration shop.  Our final image is of the birthday girl (left) with her BFF Chloe. 

Happy Celebrating!
