Birthday Dessert Table with Backdrop
Last week I shared with you an easy, and disposable, cupcake stand. Today I want to pan out and show you the dessert table I put together for Little Lady's 3rd birthday party.
We didn't have a lot of sweets, a carrot cake and cupcakes were the main fare, along with a tiered tray of brownie bites, chocolate, and graham bunnies. Just enough sugar to keep the kids going.
I found the perfect spot for a dessert table, just off my kitchen in the living room. We have an open first floor so it all flowed nicely together. I covered the table in a lace tablecloth and the wall in purple pink and white streamers. I added a cluster of tissue paper pom poms to the mix to finish it off. These are really easy to make, follow the link for a tutorial.
The backdrop was pretty easy. I even involved Little Lady who loved measuring and cutting the crêpe paper.
I cut strips of crêpe paper and used painters tape to secure them all together at one end. I doubled the tape on front and back of the crêpe paper. Then I used thumb tacks to attach the strip of tape to the ceiling.
From there I twisted the crêpe paper and secured each piece with tape at the bottom behind the table.
Voila, easy dessert table and backdrop.
How do you display your sweets for a party?
Thanks for visiting!
Cute backdrop! Love the way you hung up the tissue poms.
Thanks Amy, they added such a fun touch.
