Party Panache, Ice Cream Birthday Party
CC told her mom she wanted to have her birthday party
at home this year
CC, DD and I had such fun planning it!
{pretend the 9 is turned around}
The theme of the party was Ice Cream and it was all very girly girl
The decorations were ice cream cones, balloons and lots of pink
DD covered her table with 2 pink ombre plastic tablecloths
We set paper flower ice cream cones in glasses down the center
and filled the spaces between them
with colored ribbons and balloons
Upon arrival, each guest was given a pretty pastel colored robe to wear
The main activity of the party was having their faces painted
The face painter’s colorful table and outfit
coordinated with the party decor!
Each girl took a turn having a design painted on her face
The kitchen island was covered in a striped plastic cloth
and served as a craft table
A large Flower Ice Cream Cone decorated the center
Rolls of washi tape and scissors were placed near each place
for the girls crafts
Each girl got a wood letter of her first initial {Hobby Lobby}
The girls used colorful washi tape in a variety of patterns
to decorate their letters
5 of her friends names begin with E!
The girls decorated their letters with the colorful tapes
while waiting for their turn with the face painter
A drink station was set up on the kitchen counter
with carafes of sparkling lemonade and water
CC wanted to use fancy grown up style glasses
We found these on Amazon here
they were the perfect size for little hands,
only about 7 inches tall
I wrote the girls names on them with a paint pen
I also found these Happy Birthday ice cream cone napkins here
And these adorable ice cream cone spoons
Colorful paper plates from Hobby Lobby
fit right in with the party decor and matched the robes
After a lady like lunch of finger sandwiches and fruit
it was time for dessert…
No birthday cake today,
dessert was an Ice Cream Sundae Charcuterie tray!
CC declared it the best party ever!
Stop by on Thursday when I will be sharing the tutorial
for the floral ice cream cones on the monthly Creative Crafts Blog Hop
An ice cream sundae bar or charcuterie board is perfect for any age group
For adults I would swap out the gummy candies
for more sophisticated choices
like candied pecans, walnuts or pistachios,
maraschino cherries, a variety of syrups,
chocolate or butterscotch chips,
small pieces of fruit, pretzels…
Endless Possibilities!
Prayers for Ukraine

That was a girly and FUN party! Look forward to your floral ice cream cones tutorial :-))
Thanks Angie!
This was a fantastic party theme with great ideas! I love how the girls crafted while waiting their turn. Truly unique, all! I can see why CC thought it the best birthday party ever! Her mama and her mama’s mama make an exponential team of creativity! Pinning these great ideas.
Thanks Rita, it was so much fun and a lot of happy faces!
What a fun, girlie party. I wish I was there.
The girls were so cute and had so much fun!
Aw, very cute, everyone looks like they had a great time! All that pink and no Barbie’s??? Ha-ha, you know I’d ask, just kidding around:@)
She actually put her Barbies away because she said some of the girls think they’re too old to play with dolls 😱 but she still loves them
Jenna, what a darling and fun party for the birthday girl. CC is beautiful, her smile and dimples are amazing. You and your daughter know how to create a fabulous party for girls. Thank you for sharing and I am not surprised that CC thought it the best party ever. Happy first day of spring!
Thank you Pam, it was so much fun and the girls were so cute!
Looks like a wonderful time! They love that face painting!
It was so much fun for all of us and the face painter was amazing!
“BEST BIRTHDAY PARTY EVER!” I can hear the exclamations all the way out West! So cute and creative!
Thanks Linda, the girls were adorable!
What a darling and perfect party for CC and such a great job of planning Jenna. I think these girls had such a fun time at the sweet girly party. Great photo of CC and DD. Thanks for sharing, loved seeing peeks into DD’s lovely home……….
Thank you Emily, we had a grand time and DD’s house is so perfect for entertaining!
Jenna, Happy Birthday to CC! She is so pretty and has the sweetest smile! Your daughter and you created the most fabulous birthday party! I imagine that those girls had the best time ever. I hope you have a most wonderful day!
Thank you Shannon, the girls were so cute and had so much fun!
What a fun and sweet party this was! I love it all! I bet those girls done some giggling too. I love all the matching robes. Everything about this party was so much fun. Happy birthday to the birthday girl. Hugs and blessings, Cindy
Thank so much Cindy, we had the best time!
How very cute, love how you were able to find so many items to match your theme and to top it off…robes for each of them that matched so perfectly. No wonder CC thought it was the best party ever. I do as well. 😊
Thanks so much Karen, it was so much fun from start to finish!
I know every girl had a wonderful time. And in fact, I think that would be great fun for grown-ups, too. Creating, flowers, wonderful food. I love it!
Thanks so much Jeanie, it was tons of fun!
What an absolutely fantastic party! Any young lady–they are all so beautiful– would adore all the trimmings. (My granddaughter’s name starts with E as well.) I simply love the robes and ALL the decor. I have the same ice cream spoons, they came as a set with a tan bowl that had a crisscross pattern like an ice cream cone. Oh these wonderful days–so glad you have this gala party captured for the future. Great going, a party without rival! Georgia Gal
Thanks so much Georgia Gal, we all had such a good time and the girls were adorable! I saw the set with the ice cream cone spoons and bowls but my daughter wanted bigger bowls, but they are really cute 🙂
So creative, well thought out, and fun! I’ll that was the best party ever.
Thanks so much!

Thanks so much Cyndi, we had such a good time!
Jenna, What a fun birthday party and theme for CC…no wonder she thought it was the best party ever! The face painting, robes, ice cream bar, adorable spoons and floral ice cream cones…all too cute!! I’m sure Emily, Emma, Elizabeth, Erin and Eva must have had a great time too! 🙂
ha ha, I couldn’t believe all those E names! She also invited 4 A names! Thanks Mary!
