Nature Inspired Birthday Party


Spark & arrow had an incredible time planning this adorable nature inspired birthday party for a sweet girl turning 2! Our client wanted a nature theme based off the Bible verse Isaiah 44:4 which says 
"They will spring up among the grass like willows by flowing streams." 

It just so happened this was also the verse her daughter was named after... Willow!

Their picturesque country farm provided the perfect backdrop for us with it's sprawling pastures. We even stopped to snip a few wildflowers on our way there! 

Our custom chalkboard greeted guests as they arrived accompanied by a ribbon adorned butterfly catcher for the birthday girl. We kept the theme consistent with simple drop cloth tablecloths covered with burlap & brought in pops of color with bright yellows and greens.




Light & airy tissue swag garlands hung in the big tree in their front yard. Just enough, as to not distract from the pastures behind. Soup can & milk glass vases held a mix of flowers, wicker balls scattered about & a custom "2" topped off our table decor. 




It wouldn't be a party without some food! This client decided to keep it simple with a few snacks & a couple beverages. 




Even when going simple with the food & drink we still love to add a fun element. 



Our client provided the cake & cupcakes which we spruced up with our handmade curly cupcake toppers & paper bunting for the cake.





But, the main attraction on the food table was this ice cream bar! Does it get any better than Bluebell, hot fudge, caramel & toppings?! To keep the ice cream frosty for guests we used a galvanized tub filled with ice.



Kids always love fun activities & getting their hands dirty. So, we figured why not let them take home a real life example of the Isaiah 44:4 Bible verse. Grass seed, some potting soil & cute custom pots and tags were all it took to grab their interest!



In a few days these party favors will sprout with tiny blades of grass!




Willow, we loved being a part of your special day! We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did!
