Modern Geometric Easter

If you never though geometry would be present in your adult life then you might want to sit down…geometric is IN in a big way. Trends come and go, but a good polygon will never go out of style.

This party featured circles, squares, triangles, pentagons… you get the idea. The different shapes helped give interest to the table. In addition to all the fun shapes we went with a little bit untraditional color scheme for Easter. I like a sweet, pastel Easter table as much as the next person. But, for this party I wanted to inject a bit of color and energy. Using some of the bright yellows from nature to inspire my pallet I featured pinks, teals, and lots of bright yellow.

Geometric Details:

  • Geometric bunny in our invitations and menus. I love the way all the triangles come together to make little facets. (Get your free printables below!)
  • Off-set your simple, round plates on the table so that the circles of the table have a bit more interest.
  • Use a square mat of moss or perhaps a fun patterned square piece of fabric as a placemat.
  • I didn’t want the drink to fall over on the moss so I used my geometric coasters as an added detail and safety measure.
  • Geometric terrarium planters are EVERYWHERE at the moment. Using the planter as a secondary vase allows the centerpiece to be filled with Easter elements such as Easter eggs or Easter candies.

Easter Decorating Tips:

  • Use Easter eggs in your decor! Seriously, they are so gorgeous and a big part of Easter tradition. If you use real eggs know that there will be some smell that is attached to those. In this vase I used real eggs because I love the hue of them. However, you could totally substitute plastic eggs or painted wooden eggs and use them year after year.
  • Tulips. Enough said… well, let me rephrase that to say, LOTS and LOTS of tulips. Tulips are wonderful and affordable. They are also super easy to work with and look good even when drooping a bit.
  • Use traditional Easter candies throughout your decor. I used bright pink Peeps in this party as well as chocolate bunnies. The chocolate bunnies I found had a red ribbon around the neck so I just slipped that off and replaced it with a ribbon that matched my party color scheme.
  • Use a balloon to make your beverage glass match your color scheme. This works for any color scheme!

Manicure Party Favors for a Spa Party - A Well Crafted Party

 

Finding nice ways to say thank you to friends without breaking the bank has become a sort of hobby for me. There is just nothing like a thoughtful thank you gift, Valentine, or party favor for making someone smile. When planning the Valentine’s Day Spa party I wanted to incorporate a favor that could be used at the party and then taken home. Sharing nail supplies is generally unsanitary so this little manicure kit was a perfect favor solution that allows party guests to use fresh manicure supplies to do their nails. Putting together these little kits was simple and you can do the same with supplies you find at your local one-stop retailer such as Target or Fred Meyers.

DIY Manicure Kits

I picked up most of these items at local stores. You can really mix it up and add in an assortment of fun items to make a fun favor. When creating your DIY manicure kit you’ll want to make sure that you have a bag of some sort that will hold everything you are putting in it. You can use small bags found at a craft story like I did or even a mini-gift bag works great. Print off your favorite set of printable tags below to finish off the gift. The below links are affiliate links.

Supplies:

  • Bags (I purchased my bags ages ago and forget where… however, these linen drawstring bags from Amazon are similar.)
  • Manicure Kit (I picked mine up in a sale section at my local Target. However, you can pick up similar items online like this little manicure set from Revlon.)
  • Nail polish (I picked up several shades of pink so that guests could mix it up or trade.)
  • Favorite print of the free printables below!

Optional:

  • Nail polish remover wipes
  • Soap ( I bought heart shaped soap from my local New Seasons. You can also find heart shaped soaps online. )
  • Nail Wraps 
  • Hand Lotion
