Spring has sprung and it’s time to clean out your wardrobe for the Summer season ahead and gather your fellow fashionistas for an afternoon tea with a difference!  Ask your friends to bring along their unwanted clothes and accessories for a clothes swapping party.  You’ll enjoy a fun afternoon with friends, and you may even find some fabulous new fashion statements!  Here’s our guide to a practical (you get to swap clothes with your fashionable mates) and fun (what better way to spend an afternoon than with champagne and your friends trying on clothes) celebration for no particular reason at all, or in place of a traditional baby shower, kitchen tea, hen’s party or even a Pink Ribbon fundraising party:

Invitations

Your friends will love receiving handmade invitations through the mail.  Try making your own invitations by adorning a plain piece of coloured cardboard with a little origami dress folded from beautiful paper.  Inside, inspire your guests with some cute words, such as:

Spring has sprung!  The grass is green!
The sun does shine!  It’s time to clean!
Fling wide your wardrobe, take a peak
It’s time to find that space you seek.
Those jeans too big, that skirt too small,
That dress that’s never fit at all;
That impulse buy you’ve never worn;
Those shoes (unscuffed), that shirt (untorn).
Let’s toast the darling buds of spring -
A clothes swap’s the thing – not shopping!
Wash and repair them, and join me
For tea, with sweet treats so tasty -
And a glass of bubbly!

Setting the scene

On arrival, ask your guests to unpack their clothes and accessories and place them in categories such ‘dresses’, ‘skirts’ and ‘handbags’.  You may like to print little category cards featuring coat hanger images and secure them to the walls around your lounge room with miniature clothes pegs and a bit of blutack.  Then hand your guests a glass of champagne and usher them into the afternoon tea room.

Decorating and styling

Set the table for a decadent afternoon tea treat.  For a whimsical table, start with crisp white linen as your backdrop and then layer vintage plates, cups, jugs and teapots with napkins in a riot of floral patterns.  Visit an antiques fair, your local flea market or (with permission!) raid your grandma’s cupboards to pick up plenty of vases and teapots to add personality to your table.  Or, if you don’t fancy scouring the local garage sales, choose a selection of sweet party themed plates, cups and napkins from Pink Frosting. 

Pick bunches of flowers right from your garden and fill a collection of vintage vases and teapots to bursting for a charming centrepiece.  If you want the afternoon tea to be a formal affair, add that extra touch of elegance with miniature Eiffel Tower place card holders, which can also serve as a charming memento of the fashion capital of the world for your friends to take home.

Entertainment

The clothes swap is the main feature of the party.  After your guests have enjoyed a glass of champagne and a few sweet treats, ask them to start browsing through the items.  You may like to set a limit to start with (say, each person can choose three items to start with so that no one goes home empty handed, and then another three, etc).  Ensure you have a number of breakout rooms for your guests to try on clothes.

Menus, catering and cocktails

Serve pink petit fours, watercress sandwiches, scones with jam and cream, mini pastries, fruit skewers, an assortment of muffins, quiches and cupcakes all washed down with tea and pink champagne!  If it’s a hot summer occasion, Pimms and Lemonade is the perfect tea party treat. 

Favours and gifts

Each guest will go home with some fabulous finds for her wardrobe, but show your appreciation with a miniature Eiffel Tower place card holders, which can also serve as a charming memento of the fashion capital of the world for your friends to take home.

The team at Pink Frosting have put together a category dedicated to helping you create the perfect clothes swapping party at their online party products shop!

Bachelorette parties are one of our favourite parties to decorate and host here at Pink Frosting.  You can be frothy, fun, and really girly because it really is a celebration of girliness, love and friendship.  And the best way to express all of these sentiments is with the girliest pink, feathery fluff and kitchiest decor you can imagine.  This is our Pinkalicious Bachelorette Party (No Boys Allowed)!

The Hens Party in a Box is the perfect start for any Bachelorette Party.  We took so many elements from this fantastic box of tricks and used them as stationery, decorations, labels, tags and favors.  The invitations included in the box are a great headliner for your Pinkalicious Bachelorette Party.

From top to toe, our Pinkalicious Bachelorette Party is fluffy and pink.  Starting with budget conscious hot pink paper lanterns strung from the ceiling with a satin ribbon.  Hanging from the base of the lantern is one of the small paper doilies which come in the fabulous pink Sweetheart Paper Doily packets of 72 pieces (can you believe that?  These are one of our favourite new decorations at Pink Frosting).

We’ve created some fun pink flowers for the table using the LollyPop Pink Party Plates by Paper Eskimo.   Super-easy for even the non-craftiest hostess, simply stick two paper plates back to back against a piece of dowel and stick the base into a clump of blutak covered with some fabulous feathers (to cover any nastiness).

We’ve filled two large vases on either side of the plate flowers.  One with water pearls and one with conversation hearts. 

For each place setting, we have placed the other paper doilies from the Sweetheart Paper Doily sets under each simply white plate.  It adds a pop of colour to the setting.  On top, we’ve used the fun stickers from the Hens Party in a Box which includes some fun nicknames for the guests and guest of honour.  Each place setting includes a glitzy antique acrylic place card holder   which is another of our favourite new products at Pink Frosting.

Finally, we’ve used the Bachelorette Party sign from our Hens Party in a Box and the Bridal Bouquet Table Centrepiece to give a little more kitch to the table.

Our fun toasting flutes are so fun, aren’t they?  With giant diamond rings in the centre, they are truly a bachelorette party must-have.

Finally, our gorgeous favors are the very popular With This Ring engagement ring keychain favors by Kate Aspen.  As we wanted a Pinkalicious look, we removed the thank you tag which comes with the favor, and placed on our own pink circle tags which make the favor really work for the party theme.

If you want to see our gorgeous set-up in person, come on down to see us at the Pink Frosting showroom at 35 Whyalla Street, Fyshwick in Canberra.

Happy Celebrating!

Here are some of the Pink Frosting team’s favourite bomboniere designs from Kate Aspen, but you can view the whole collection of 250+ favor designs here.

Butterflies Laser Cut Favor Box in Sage Green or Pink, including gorgeous satin ribbon and a finely detailed, silver finish butterfly charm.

Golf tealight candle favor and placecard holder with fun golf-themed place card is the perfect favor for a golf-themed event, or a fun enhancement to an anniversary, wedding or corporate party hosted by a true golf-lover. 

It’s a Shoe Thing stiletto heel shaped bottle opener is one of the most fun favors we’ve seen for a while.  It’s heavy-weight, so whimsical for a girl’s night out celebration, whether it be for an 18th birthday, a bridal shower, hens party or a gorgeous little Christmas gift for your friends and colleagues.

The nest egg scented egg-shaped soap in a nest and a gift box (in blue or pink) is by far our favourite new baby shower and christening favour.  It is just so adorable, I’m not even sure you need me to say more!

The topiary place card holder (also an adorable photo holder for your desk after the event) is just such a fun design we want to build an event around it.  Wait for spring and use these on your table to create such a buzz with your guests.

With this ring chrome diamond ring bottle stopper is such a great take on the ever-popular bottle stopper bomboniere.  We love it as an engagement party favor, for anniversaries and also as a girly wedding favor, perhaps with a complementary bottle stopper for the guys.

The Love-sicle lightly scented popsicle soap is so divine it reminds us of days in primary school.  What a gorgeous baby shower, kids party or bridal shower favor?  Oh so sweet!

Hand fans as favors are such a great idea for a beach or garden wedding and we have never seen a hand fan favor as divine as these silk hand fans in a laser-cut box (with a matching personalised tag if you like) in ivory or black.  Yes, yes, yes!

Oh so gorgeous.  With over 250 favors to choose from, you will surely find something for your wedding, baby shower or other special event!

Happy Celebrating!

Renowned around Australia as one of Australia’s leading wedding planning companies, we opened the Pink Frosting online store a little over two years ago and it quickly became a hit, representing brands never before seen in Australia.  The online store features invitations, decorations, favors and accessories for weddings, parties, baby showers, kids celebrations, christenings and seasonal celebrations such as Easter and Christmas.

Our new showroom is filled with glamorous ideas and products to help inspire brides, entertainers and everyone who loves to celebrate create a truly magical event.

Pink Frosting’s shop opened with the intention of bringing the world’s best wedding and party decorations to Australia.  As event planners and stylists, we know how difficult it used to be to source unique and lovely wedding and party decorations and accessories, so we simply started importing them ourselves.

The store’s strength is that the buyers are experienced event and wedding planners and stylists so customers can feel secure that the products really work.  We not only bring these gorgeous things to Australia, we also demonstrate on our website how to use them through our beautiful galleries and event planning tools and ideas.

Now with a showroom open to the public, a little gem in the nation’s capital, anyone who wants to see the products in the flesh, can do this in a beautiful environment, with the assistance of one of Pink Frosting’s wedding and event stylists.

Online shopping is growing dramatically in Australia, but there will always be a group of customers who would prefer to touch and feel the products before they buy.  Our showroom allows customers to do this with the added assistance of a professional stylist to show them how the products work as well as help them theme and style their event.

Pink Frosting’s team of in-house wedding coordinators are available to see clients by appointment at 35 Whyalla Street, Fyshwick Canberra.  For an appointment, please call us on 1300 855 633 or email Pink Frosting at info@pinkfrosting.com.au.  Customers outside of Canberra can still get their Pink Frosting fix by visiting the online store at www.pinkfrosting.com.au .

We hope to see you soon!

Happy Celebrating!
