How to plan an eco-friendly sunflower party
We’ll show you how we helped mum of 2, Claire, to plan an eco-friendly sunflower party the easy way!
Thinking of your next child’s party and trying to make it totally waste-free can seem like a daunting task, but it doesn’t need to be!
At Partyora, we’re all about helping parents plan the best party EVER, sustainably!
Planning your child’s party should be a fun experience, so don’t let the stress of making sure everything is perfectly plastic-free ruin it for you.
We’ll show you how, take a look at all the wonderful details of this Sunflower and Daisies party below!
The theme & mood board
After discussing party themes with Mum, Claire, we decided on a floral theme with a unique twist. “Sunflower and Daisies” seemed fitting because it was a joint party for her daughters. Combining the flowers allowed us to bring in a few complementary colours so we could create a truly unique colour palette for this fun party!
When planning a party there’s one thing that’s a must- STRESS-FREE!
Partyora ensured just that, and more!
My girls birthdays are just 4 days apart, and we had just moved into our new home meaning a combined 2nd and 4th birthday PLUS housewarming was on the cards.
Missing out on parties last year meant I wanted to do something a little bit special so, I contacted Juliana from Partyora with a brief outline and let the magic happen! I’m the type to completely hand over creative control and Juliana absolutely nailed it with “Sunflowers and Daisies.”Juliana created a mood board which she shared to ensure the theme suited our vision. She then orchestrated the invitations, decorations, cake toppers, confetti and plaster painting which doubled as party entertainment as well and party favours – win-win! Each element was perfectly put together to match the theme!
