Starting of course with your Owl Party Invitations :-

          

Once you have ascertained how many guests are coming, then you can start with seriously planning for your party tableware, catering, games etc.

Here you can have fun, collecting and putting together your owl party decorations! Whether you go for Chinese lanterns in your chosen colour that you can either put stickers of owls all over, turn into owls as demonstrated below, or if you want to start from scratch and create your own tissue paper owls, there are plenty of products available. You can even create them from white or brown/bronze balloons, adding beaks, eyes, wings etc. Or you can buy ready made owl printed lanterns like we have in stock. 

 

                         

As well as this, we currently have 2 different styles of foil balloon with owls on them.

  

Now you know how many people are coming you can organise your owl party supplies. Starting with your plates, cups, napkins, cupcake cases and  owl cake toppers etc.  We have a rainbow of plastic tablecloths available to go with your colour choice and many different tablerunners to go down the middle, at present we have one with owls on.

 

 

Here is an example of Fay’s owl party for her daughter, Jessica.

 

 

 

One of the most favourite party foods is cupcakes, and on a cupcake stand they make an easy centerpiece. We have a large range of Cupcake Papers to suit whatever colour theme and we also have a wide range of Cupcake Stands. To make the owl cupcake toppers, you just need toothpicks and stickers, from our wide variety of owl themed stickers. Just stick a sticker on either side of the toothpick and you easily have a cupcake topper.  

For plates and cups, you can either go with reusable plastic ones in your chosen colour or paper ones.  We also have very sweet wooden utensils you can wrap a piece of ribbon around and place by their plates.  The latest trend is to use mini milk bottles and paper straws in either stripes, spots or hearts, which you can also put an owl sticker on or a label with your child and their friend's names on.  Very handy for putting different flavoured milks in (chocolate, banana, strawberry, lime) which look very appealing and taste delicious!  

 

              

 

Whatever you go for, make sure you tie your colours together well for an attractive setting.

 

Always cater for a couple more than you think will be coming, just in case. It helps to do this with party bags too, unless you strictly specify, siblings and neighbours can sometimes arrive too!.  Apart from the usual party food, chippies, popcorn, lollies, jelly etc.  You could also go with owl cupcakes, fondant owls decorating the top look very good, or iced ones, or you can go with cupcake toppers with owls on.  Owl shaped cookies, or owl decorated cookies with either fondant icing or decorating icing depending.  You could even use an owl shaped cutter to cut out owl shaped sandwiches, particularly owl themed fairy bread, with eyes and beak. We also have edible food pens with which you, or your child, can draw owls onto the cupcakes/cake. The birthday cake, well you can either go flat or 3 dimensional your choice and capability! We also have delightful owl candles.

 

 

                   

 

Every child loves to go home with a party bag. If you don’t wish to make one though, an owl topped pencil each, or an owl cupcake will be just as exciting.

 

We have a range of paper party bags in a rainbow of colours to match your colour theme, and lots of very cool owl stickers to put on them as well as tags! We also have a lot of choices (owl themed) to go inside, ranging from owl lipglosses, owl and eraser topped pencils, and owl stickers as a whole sheet (or cut up into sections).

 

                         

 

For Owl presents for your child any of the above of course! But also we have these lovely pencil tins from Rachel Ellen, Flower Owl Googly Eyes, Lily and George Owl Stationery Set, and Roger la Borde A5 Journal. To complete the present, you could use the Owl Tree Gift Bag, Rachel Ellen Owl and Bird Card or Rachel Ellen Owl Birthday Card.
