Fairy Princess 1st Party






We Recently had a Fairy Princess Party for our granddaughters 1st birthday. We had so much fun and she was an adorable fairy princess. 

For invitations we sent out a card that said the following:

Peek into the garden, and what will you see? A beautiful fairy, sitting under a tree. Her name is Kimber, and she's turning one. Won't you join her for a party, full of fairytale fun.Fairy, gnome, elf or other mythical creature costumes are encouraged.

We had a backdrop that we used years ago for a dance camp and just hung it up in our party room to create a nice setting and give us a backdrop for pictures. It is just a canvas dropcloth painted with a castle on it.


We hung paper pom poms and balloons to give the room a whimsical feel.


We had cake made of a fairy castle and little fairies sitting on it. We also had several kinds of cupcakes. We were also celebrating several other birthdays in the family so the cupcakes served as cakes for the grown ups as well. We also had fairy dust candy in cups and fairy crown lollipops.





We asked everyone to dress as characters that would come to a fairy princess party and everyone was creative with their costume ideas.

We made lace crowns ahead of time by soaking fabric lace in fabric stiffener and drying. We then painted the lace and added glitter.




She had a great time and enjoyed her first birthday cake. The top was designed to take off so she had her very own cake to eat.
