Sparkly Crowns

All of the little guests were given a beautiful silver sparkly crown to wear. To make buy some thick sparkly paper then simply draw a drown template and cut out the crowns from the sparkly paper using the template. Attach a ribbon to each end of the crown with a staple and then place a piece of sticky tape over the staple to protect their head and hair. Simply tie on when they wish to wear it - or they can take it home in the party bag.

Stain Glass Lollypops

Both yummy and pretty, these stain glass lollypops go down a treat, the recipe and instructions can be found under Cook /Celebrate. They have a vanilla biscuit base and use crushed boiled lollies to make the stain glass effect. You bake the cookies until nearly ready, sprinkle in the crushed lollies and bake again for 5 minutes so the lollies melt and once they cool the lollies harden again and form gorgeous lollypops.

Craft Boxes

Using noodle boxes decorated with a sparkly butterfly which matches the crowns I created little craft boxes for the children to help keep them entertained. They contained a few coloured pencils, princess/prince themed colouring pages, homemade playdoh, recipe is on the website, a set of little joined folding dolls with doilies and sparkle pens to decorate them., a glue stick and some little bits and pieces of pretty cut out paper. They had a lovely time sitting around crafting.

Decor

The walls were decorated with a plastic panelling in the design of castle walls, with columns and candelabra's, there were balloons all around the walls and as you can see the tables were fit for a king or queen.
