Flutterby Butterfly Party

A butterfly birthday party is a perfect idea for a little girl. You can create a magical birthday party with a fun butterfly theme that she will never forget with these fun creative ideas.

Get Ready to Flutter
Begin by stocking up on all the necessary birthday party supplies – plates, napkins, balloons – all with a butterfly theme. Check your local dollar store for these supplies at a fraction of the cost of other places. Then get your invitations ready. Cut out butterfly-shaped cards the size of a post card, and let your child decorate them with stickers. Tape the actual party invitation to the back on one side, and then mail it off.

Butterfly Decorations
Draw and cut out large butterflies from poster board. Color and decorate the butterflies and hang them from the ceiling. Make large flowers to tape to the walls. Decorate the tables and walls with pastel-colored crepe paper and balloons. For a table centerpiece, fill a large vase with colorful flowers, and add tiny butterflies to the flowers. Butterfly magnets make great place holders the kids can take home.

Butterfly Party Activities
A fun activity for your butterfly birthday party would be to make coffee filter butterflies. You need a clothespin, coffee filters and markers. Have the kids color sections of the coffee filters. Spritz them with water, and the colors will run together. Let them dry, and then pinch the middle of the flat coffee filter and push it up into the clothespin so that two wings seem to puff out. Add wiggly eyes and chenille stem antennae.

You could also cut out wings that are large enough for the party guests in advance. Use paper bags, and cut wings from the large sides of the bags. Tape them together, and punch holes near where the wings meet so you can tie the wings on the children. Then, the guests can paint designs on the wings, and you can attach the wings to the children’s backs so they can fly around.

Butterfly Birthday Cake – It’s Easy to Do

Bake a round cake according to the directions on the cake mix box. Cut the cake in half. Turn the two halves around on the cookie sheet so that the round sides touch in the middle and the wider, flat edges are pointing out. You can leave it like this, or trim the rounded edges for a more triangular look. Ice the cake in pastel colors, pipe an icing body down the middle, add licorice antennae and you have a beautiful butterfly cake. Pastel-colored ice cream completes the party.

Party Food
Everyday food becomes fun when you give it a new name and add a twist. Try serving these fun foods at your butterfly party.

Butterfly Nector – Combine equal parts apricot nectar (in the juice aisle) and 7-Up. Float rainbow sherbet on top.

Butterfly Jewel Sandwiches – Make jelly sandwiches in a variety of colors. Use flavors such as grape, strawberry and peach. Remove crusts and cut in half on the diagonal. Place sandwiches on a small plate with the wide side facing out like wings. Add a baby carrot in the middle for the wings, raisins for eyes and licorice for wings. “Glue” in place with small dabs of jelly or icing.

Garden Goodies – Celery sticks, baby carrots, mini tomatoes and tiny radishes along with dip are the perfect accompaniment to this part.

Goody Bags to Go
Send the kids home with goody bags decorated with butterflies. Include items in the bag such as butterfly-shaped toys, butterfly and flower stickers or a small book on butterflies. Wrap up your party by having your child send out butterfly-themed thank-you notes.

Springtime School Room Decor

Springtime is on it's way! The sun is coming out to warm the world around us and a myriad of new life is awakening. The birds are beginning to chirp and the flowers will soon be blooming.

They simply add a magical  and enchanting feel. The children can each make their own nylon butterflies and add them to the decor of the room. Mixing them in with nylon butterflies you've purchased and attaching them to clear fishing line stretched across the room invites ownership from the children as they have assisted and personalized the room.

Activating the imagination will bring more focus and enhance the learning experience.

For an outdoor celebration, attach some clear or sparkled wiring (at a safe height) between trees and allow beautiful, magical butterflies to enhance your garden celebrations. Even in evening, the lighted array of colors sparkling through the night will delight your guests.

Butterfly Themed Nursery Ideas

Decorating your baby's nursery in a butterfly theme is a beautiful way to brighten the room for your baby girl. Butterflies are delicate creatures, each unique in their intricate designs and colors. There are creative ways you can bring the beauty of butterflies into the nursery in an elegant way that looks well put together and enhances the feel of the room.

Choosing Items

Choose a few key butterfly items for your nursery rather than overwhelming the room with everything butterfly-themed. Additional items can be coordinated to match the butterfly's colors. Your colors should be bright, as babies prefer these over pastels. Newborns, however, prefer black and white due to the contrast of shades, which is easier for them to see.

Hanging Butterflies

Take small hooks and screw them into the ceiling. Find large butterflies at Bugs-n-Blooms that can be hung from the hooks using fishing line. They'll fly around as the breeze hits them and delight the baby from her crib.

Wall Decals

Use butterfly wall decals to decorate the walls. Bugs-n-Blooms has vinyl wall decal stickers that are custom in your choice of colors. With a large color palette, you can match the decals to the colors in your baby's nursery. You can pick up other decals that work well with the butterfly theme, such as clouds for the ceiling or flowers for the butterflies to sit on.

Crib and Bedding

Decorate her crib with a few butterfly items and solid colors to coordinate. The bedding should be simple with a few butterfly items standing out from the rest. While the crib sheet can be a solid bold color, the blanket can be a colorful array of butterflies. The mobile is a great way to showcase hanging butterflies. Since butterflies are one of the more popular themes for babies, you'll be able to find several selections of butterfly mobiles available at their store, both online and in-store.

Butterfly Rug

Complete the room with a large butterfly rug or several smaller ones. You can find rugs that have an assortment of butterflies on them to rugs that are in the shape of a large butterfly.

Butterfly Birthday Party Ideas

Butterfly Invitations

You can use a large colorful picture of a butterfly for your butterfly birthday party invitations. Make photocopies and cut out the invitations. Include your party details on the butterfly wings.

The wording of your butterfly birthday invitations can say: "Butterflies are pretty and fly so free - come to (name of your child)'s 6th (7th, etc.) birthday tea. There will be games to play and wings to make. We will enjoy a butterfly cake. So dress up as pretty as you can be, and join the fun at (name of your child)'s Butterfly Tea." Then include all your butterfly birthday party details.

You can make butterfly party invitations more personal. Draw (with a help of your child) a butterfly on the front of the invitation card (make sure the butterfly is big enough). Then make color copies of your picture for the rest of the invitations. Write the above wording inside you invitations and mail.

Butterfly Decorations

You can create a special atmosphere with your butterfly party decorations.

Decorate a gate (or any other area in front of your house) with a banner "The Butterfly Birthday Party is Here!" Tie balloons (mylar butterfly balloons are best) to pinwheels, and then stick the pinwheels in the ground by the walkway leading to your house. Have colorful paper streamers everywhere around your backyard.

Hang nylon butterflies on strings from the ceiling inside the house. Place any butterfly related toys (e.g. flowers, bugs, etc.) around the butterfly birthday party area. Attach butterfly posters to the walls for colorful effect.

Cover your table with table cover with mini butterflies on it. You can attach colorful ribbons to flower pots, and have one or two of them for table centerpiece.

Tie a large butterfly mylar balloon to birthday child's seat. Make a huge banner "Happy Birthday (Your child's name)!", and hang it by the table area.

Butterfly Favors

For your butterfly party favors you can have such items as butterfly stickers, bean bags, butterfly hair clips, sunglasses, toy butterflies, flower seeds, gummy caterpillars, and butterfly shaped rings.

If your butterfly birthday party is strictly for the girls - then you can give out butterfly costumes which includes a pair butterfly wings, butterfly tutu, and a butterfly wand.

Butterfly Birthday Cake

Butterfly Cake: Bake 9" round cake and one cupcake.

Cut cake in half. Place curved edges of the cut halves side by side. This should resemble butterfly wings. Frost the cake with white icing and decorate it with candies and gumdrops.

Place the cupcake above "the wings" to resemble butterfly's head. Place licorice for antennae and gumdrops for eyes.

Butterfly Food Ideas

• Butterfly Bagels: Slice bagels in half. Split the halves again in the middle resulting in four half circles per bagel.

• Butterfly Sandwich: Cut bread in the form of butterfly wings. Add a celery stick body, cherry tomato and carrot stick antennae. Put veggie pieces on the bread for "spots".
  

• Butterfly Treats: Cut celery into small pieces. Fill them with peanut butter, cream cheese or other spread. Put a pretzel on each side of the celery to form wings. Use broken pretzel pieces for antennae and raisins for eyes.
  

• Caterpillar Gelatin: Prepare gelatin according to directions on the package. Add gummy worms - so every gelatin cube has a caterpillar. And then refrigerate.

Girl Room Decorating Ideas, Garden Theme Bedroom Decorations

Whether you opt for a room full of flowers or butterflies or go with a garden or tea party theme your daughter’s room – it’s easy to create the room of her dreams with a few creative touches.

Following is a collection of garden and butterfly related theme ideas. I hope the following ideas inspire some girl room ideas of your own.

Flower Power

For a cool retro look think bright oranges, sunny yellows, lime greens, and watermelon pinks. Look for vibrant wall borders and fabrics with simple flower shapes.

Team girl room colors up with solid colored bedding and window treatments. Use flower prints again on throw cushions and in an area rug.

Go one step further and trace some of the flower shapes from the border or fabric and create random floral patterns on your child’s wall and then paint to match the colors elsewhere in her kid room. Or you could display the tops of some bright and colorful flowers in simple frames and use to bring her girl room theme together.

Butterflies

When it comes to girl rooms - butterflies are big! Since butterflies are a popular theme room idea for girls, the kid room decorating market offers many fun fabrics and accessories that will easily bring a butterfly theme together.

A kid room mural featuring a garden and butterflies is a great place to start or you could opt for summery pink or yellow painted walls and make a butterfly comforter or quilt the focal point of the room instead.

A decorative border, some reusable wall stickers, a butterfly mobile or some butterflies hung by a screw eye and fishing line would go along way to bringing all the room elements together.

Other girl room theme ideas include painting butterflies or using reusable stickers on furniture and accenting a lampshade, curtain, thin picture frame or bulletin board with butterfly hair clips.

Garden party

For another take on a feminine girl room consider soft pinks, gentle violets and mellow yellows to create a garden party theme your daughter will cherish for years to come.

Consider airy curtains and soft floral or thin striped fabrics.

For a custom look hang your child’s curtains from a wooden dowel (painted white) to which the ends of dollar store hand tools have been affixed (remove the handles first).

What about a garden trellis, a picket fence or lattice headboard? Hanging artificial flowers and butterflies from the ceiling (use fishing line and a screw eye) is also a great idea.

Or how about using white lattice on the bottom half of your child’s wall and painting the top part of her walls blue and sponging on some white fluffy clouds?

Alternatively you could try your hand at painting a wall mural or simply put up a ready-made one. Reusable wall stickers and a decorative wall border would also be a good way of bringing her garden party theme together.

Creative storage ideas that tie in well with this girl room theme include using three extra large terra-cotta-looking plastic pots to throw toys into and a variety of individual white painted wooden pegs or peg racks for storing items in mesh bags.

White painted furniture and a child’s table and chair set in a corner would be the ideal spot for a tea party with friends.

Kids Butterfly Party Ideas

If your child loves butterflies, give her a party that centers on her favorite insect. Let the guest of honor participate with planning, choosing treats for the party favor bags, activities and cupcake centerpiece or butterfly cake. Make this a celebration that guests will say was over much too soon.

Invitations

Pass out or mail colorful invitations in the shape of butterflies with information on date, time and place of the party. Attach or include a magnetic butterfly to keep the invitation posted on the refrigerator as a reminder and let the birthday child decorate the envelopes with butterfly stamps.

Party Decorations

Cover the party table with butterfly-themed paper table cloths or a few yards of fabric printed with colorful butterflies. Table decorations include butterfly-shaped paper plates and butterfly-printed cups and napkins. Place cone-shaped butterfly printed hats and attach a butterfly-themed balloon at each chair at the table. Wall decorations can also include giant butterflies, butterfly streamers and nylon butterflies suspended from the ceiling. If the party is held at home, decorate the front door with a butterfly party door cover.

Party Favors

Create party favor bags with butterfly-themed goodies such as butterfly sunglasses, sun catchers, butterfly jewelry kits, rings and necklaces, butterfly wings, butterfly shaped lollipops, butterfly wands, temporary butterfly tattoos, fans and little butterfly bottles of bubbles. The guest of honor can hand the favor bags to each guest as they leave to go home at the end of the party.  Have the guest of honor dress up in a beautiful butterfly costume which includes butterfly wings, butterfly tutu skirt and a butterfly fairy wand.

Refreshments
Place decorated cupcakes with pastel colored frosting on a tiered serving tray with butterfly candle toppers as the centerpiece guests will enjoy last. Serve finger foods such as "Caterpillars in a blanket" (hot dog halves wrapped in a biscuit) with dipping sauce like ketsup or mustard and "Butterfly Pizza" (pizza cut with butterfly cookie cutter).

Activities

Have a few craft projects ready for young guests to make. These include a Butterfly Life Cycle art kit with embellishments, painting ceramic butterfly pots, decorating giant butterflies with stickers, making butterfly magnets or coloring fuzzy butterfly pictures. Add a little physical activity with a butterfly piñata filled with candy and treats guests can swing at with a stick.

Butterfly Nursery Decor

The nursery is where a baby sleeps, plays and spends a lot of time with his parents. Because of the amount of time spent in the room, decorating the nursery is important. As she grows, she'll begin to notice the things that surround her. The decor of the nursery should be comforting, relaxing and nice to look at. Butterflies are a soothing decor theme for a nursery that is appropriate for boys and girls.
Walls:
Nursery walls should be given a coat of lead-free paint. Select colors that go best with the furniture and theme of your butterfly decor. For example, if you'll be painting butterflies in flight, first paint your walls light sky blue as a background. Alternately, paint walls light pink, yellow or light green. On one wall, paint a mural of a field of flowers, then add construction-paper butterflies to give the wall a three-dimensional look. Put the butterflies up high enough that little hands can't get them. Or use a projector to light up the walls with butterfly images.
Refurbished Furniture:
To continue the theme, decorate the nursery's furniture with butterflies. Recycle an older child's bed or find a new bed at a yard sale or flea market. Wash down the bed and let it dry. Paint the frame in a light color such as white or cream. Stencil or decoupage butterflies all along the bed. Put a few on the inside so the baby can look at the butterflies. The same can be done with an old dresser.
Ceiling Butterflies:
Large nylon butterfly purchased from Bugs-n-Blooms can be hung from the ceiling using the included fishing string and eye hooks. Paint the hooks the same color as the ceiling so you can't see them. Spread the butterflies around so if the wind blows, the strings won't get tangled. Also keep them high enough off the ground that kids can't pull them or hurt themselves with them. Add some over the baby's bed in place of a mobile. Use butterflies in a variety of colors, styles at varied heights.

Fun Butterfly Room Decor Ideas

We have unlimited option of colors and patterns to create a Butterfly room decor because butterflies are so colorful. Any color is good for this theme room, even colors you've never see on real butterflies!

Now lets start with the walls ....

First, decide on what color the walls are gonna be for this butterfly room decor. If your Girl has a favorite color, use it. If she's too young to know what her favorite is, just pick any color you like.

Then look for two different shades of paint of that color, a lighter one and a darker one.

Even though any color suits this butterfly bedroom, but since it's a kid's room, it's best to choose colors that are not too dark for the walls. Also try to avoid too bright colors that are not comfortable for the eyes. Use dark and bright colors for accents only, for example to make butterfly wall murals

Measure up from the floor to the height of 1.1 meters and make a straight horizontal pencil line on the walls.  Put masking take right below the line and paint the upper area with the lighter wall paint.After the paint dries, take off the masking tape and place another right above the line and paint the lower area with the darker wall paint.

Other option for this butterfly room decor is to use Butterfly Wallpaper. Hunt for butterfly wallpaper that comes with the color you or your girl wants, or look for simple plain or striped wallpaper and add butterfly wallpaper border as accent.

Now we'll continue this butterfly room decor by filling up the room with furniture. Since butterflies are identical with nature, it's a good idea to use wooden brown furniture for this butterfly theme room. To make the room even more alive, use wood paints to paint.

Now lets decorate the bed ...

For the bedding, look for Butterfly Bedding Set with colors that match the wall's background colors.

Other option to tone down the room a little bit if you think the room is already too crowded with butterflies is to use plain white bed sheet, plain or striped pillow shams with any soft pastel colors, and then add a  

Decorating the rest of the room ...

Now we have done most part of this butterfly room decor and we'll just add some accessories to finish the room. Here are some butterfly room decorations ideas:

• Kids love to play on the floor so rug is an important accessory to add. Pick a Butterfly Rug with colors that match the room's main colors. Soft colored Shaggy Rug will do great too.
  
• Use Butterfly Frame or Flowers Frame for any picture you want to put in the room.
  
• Put a butterfly lamp beside the bed.
  
• Add a wooden wastebasket with pastel color that suits the room. Paint your Girl's initial on it and add some scattered small flowers around the initial.
• Hang some Paper or Nylon Butterflies from the ceiling. Hang it at various heights to make it look natural.
  
• Use butterfly themed switch plates instead of a plain one.

Wedding Decorating Ideas - Table Centerpieces

Creating A Wedding Centerpiece is Easy! Here's How:

1. Start by selecting an attractive clear glass container for the centerpiece. Here, an elevated bowel on a glass pedestal was used, but feel free to use a more standard style of bowl for equally lovely effects.

2. Fill the container with fresh water.

3. Select your floating candles.

4. Place the floating candles in the water. To mimic the look in the photo, crowd the candles in the container - for this particular container, four candles was about all it could hold, and we crammed them in! If you prefer a different look, use fewer candles.

5. It's the rose petals that really cap off the look in this particular centerpiece design and give it that super-romantic, super-soft visual effect. Just place the petals on water and around the candles, and be sure to also sprinkle them on the table, around the centerpiece to finish that wonderful setting!

Butterflies flutter and float gracefully atop a pretty bowl of water in this mesmerizing table centerpiece design - More of the magic which can be created simply with the use of floating candles! Use the butterfly candles on their own, or combine with floral floating candles to create additional interest within the design. Consider combining with floating candles, a perfect compliment to the look with their delicate petals.  Perhaps the most popular variety of orchid, and is known as the 'butterfly orchid" because its delicate petals resemble the wing of a butterfly, unfolding in velvety color.

Bowls of flowers and floating candles make a very pretty presentation for table centerpieces, and have the added benefit of being extremely easy to assemble. Pictured above, pastel colors set the perfect tone for a spring wedding. A large silk floral bloom is immersed in an elegant clear glass bowl. In keeping with the floral theme, four floating rose-shaped candles in a combination of pastel colors float on the surface of the water. The arrangement is placed on the center of the table atop a table runner in coordinating pastel mauve. To add to the look, small flower pots of votive candles surrounded by pastel roses are placed in alternating positions along the center of the rectangular table, on both sides of the floating candle display. For a final finishing touch, faux rose petals are scattered delicately around the table.

Making Butterfly Decor for a Nursery

Planning Your Theme

Butterfly themed nurseries are all the rage for a newborn girl's room. The colors of this theme are shades of pinks, purples, greens and delicate yellows. These hues can evoke a sense of new life and vitality. Choosing fabrics depending on what pieces you will be sewing, you can choose from an endless array of fabrics when making bedding, window treatments, wall hangings, pillows and cushions for your new room. After you have picked your colors and fabrics, you can use a piece of each one to make a baby quilt. You may choose to keep the background solid, use the different fabrics to make the butterfly's wings and body and then sew them to the quilt. Matching butterflies can be made to use for wall hangings and pillows.

Walls 

Wall colors can be decided upon by taking one or two shades from the fabrics. For a simple border idea, buy inexpensive butterfly-shape sponges from a craft store and dip them in various colors of paint that match the bedding. Stamp them up along the border of the walls. These can be easily painted over as the child grows and the decor in the room changes. Removable wall decals are also a popular and inexpensive option.

Finishing Touches 
A wooden toy chest, a rocking chair stenciled with butterflies and flowers and a butterfly-shape rug will finish off the room nicely.

Ideas for Decorating a Bathroom with a Butterfly Theme

Create a Butterfly Theme Bathroom with a little creativity

Do you love butterflies? How about decorating your bathroom with a butterfly theme? The bathroom is the ideal location to experiment with a decorating theme, and the options for decor and endless. Best of all, bathroom decor in a butterfly theme does not have to come from an expensive home decor store. Save money while decorating and consider the following unique ideas for decorating a bathroom with a butterfly theme. Using photos, felt, peel and stick decals, shells, craft paint, and a little creativity, you can have a bathroom with a beautiful butterfly theme, and without spending a small fortune on decorating accessories.

Decorate a Shower Curtain with Beautiful Butterflies
Pre-made shower curtains embellished with butterflies are not cheap. A matter of fact, shower curtains that match specific themes can be quite expensive. Buy a plain fabric shower curtain in a solid color of your choice, and purchase a variety of lightweight nylon butterflies and hand sew or use double sided tape to adhere to the curtain. Trace around the butterfly or draw them freehand. Arrange the various colors and designs, and top the finished butterflies with glass beaded details. They will look outstanding and far more unique than anything available in stores.

Peel and Stick Butterfly Decals
Decals are a great decorating option for those that want affordable decorating options. Purchase butterfly wall sticker decals, and place them sparingly around the corner of a bathroom door frame, on a corner of the mirror, or on tiles along the sink back splash. Less is more when decorating with any subject or theme, and a few peel and stick butterfly decals can add color while adding to the theme.  To add a bit of variety, you can also use some ladybug wall stickers, or bee stickers and create an adorable garden themed bathroom.  Quick and easy way to decorate any girls bathroom; simply peel and stick and the best part is they are removable so if you want to change them you can with ease.
