Llama Party

I’ve been brainstorming about new themes to design and this Llama Party was on top of my list. Llamas are such cute animals and with a theme like this you can go crazy on the colours, which is a great way to set the mood for a fun 'fiesta'.

The styling of this table started with the backdrop. I knew I wanted lots of colours so I twisted a few streamers and hung them on the wall at different heights and angles, overlapping each other. Then I hung the banner on top. The banner has editable text so you can type any message you like. For this party I went with a generic “fiesta“.

The llama cake topper was the perfect embellishment for the cake. The cake had shredded coconut frosting for a fluffy look. I printed the cake topper on white card stock, then cut each piece, added toothpicks to the back with tape and stuck them on the cake. Done!

Another favourite detail were the cactus cupcakes. I used 3 little terracota pots to hold the chocolate cupcakes. I had cut and lightly crumbed the tops of the cupcakes to resemble dirt, then stuck the cactus cupcake toppers on top. So easy to do but they added a fun touch to this table.
There were also 'llama cupcakes', the same chocolate cupcakes topped with shredded coconut. I decorated those with our llama party cupcake toppers and cupcake wrappers.

At the centre of the table I used a small wooden crate to display lemon/lime soda bottles wrapped with the theme’s bottle labels. I attached a straw to each bottle and decorated them with straw flags.

And of course no fiesta would be complete without nachos and popcorn! I used colourful plastic baskets on each end of the table to hold those snacks. Yum!

The last detail to add was the “Please take one” sign next to the party favors. The little paper bags had a thank you tag attached with a small clothespin for extra cuteness.

I have seen lots of fun Llama Parties lately and I think this will continue to be a popular theme for the rest of the year. It's definitely one of my favourites!
