With spring just around the corner, I decided that we were in need of a little sunshine and celebration, so I decided to host a “Somewhere Over the Rainbow’ playdate party for my kids with the help of Vanilla Gift. I live in Cleveland, so it will still be quite some time until we are able to enjoy the outdoors, so a rainbow-themed party seemed like the perfect way to curb the winter blues.
I hosted the playdate on a Sunday afternoon between meals, so I decided to simply serve refreshments and a few treats. To make the afternoon feel more festive, I styled the treats on a simple white table adorned with a neutral balloon garland. I found an adorable boho rainbow wall decal online that served as the backdrop to the table and then displayed the treats on a variety of cake pedestals in different sizes and heights to give the table visual interest.
The cake was made by a friend of the family, and tasted even better than it looked! I love how the textured buttercream matched the other party details so perfectly. I also included some mini donuts on the table, along with some chocolate gold coins, which were definitely a hit with the kiddos.
As a thank you to the mommas for bringing their kids to the playdate, I decided to put together a small gift basket for each of them to take home. The gift boxes included a Vanilla Gift Card, some hair accessories, a bag of chocolate coins, and a print out of one of my favorite Irish Blessings.
The playdate made me realize that you don’t always need a reason to celebrate and spend time with friends. It was such a lovely afternoon getting to catch up with other moms in a similar stage of life, while my boys played with their friends.
Thank you to Vanilla Gift Cards for sponsoring this post, and for making the perfect addition to my rainbow party gift box!
