Hey Lovers… how are we all today? I hope you’ve had a good morning? I’ve been putting together a few ideas for my garden hen party that I’m having in a few weeks. I’m heading back to the UK to see my family and thought I’d get the girls together at my Mum’s house in Somerset. I know, it’s a little early but this really is the only time I can get all my girls together before my big day. I will be having a hen party in Dubai with my Dubai girls but that’s top secret, I’m not allowed to get involved. Apparently my step mum has put a ‘hen party committee’ together…. I feel special! 😉
Anyway, back to my garden hen party…. I’m having 10 of my closest girlfriends camp at my Mum’s house (she has a massive garden) complete with a big white teepee (kindly donated by one of my mum’s lovely friends) and a big old camp fire for the evening. My theme is English country with a touch of pink and polka dots. I’m sort of prepared with the decor (I’ll be sharing my ‘how to’ DIY crafty facts with you very soon) but I’m still pondering over the food… so, what better way to get some ideas than via pinterest. (still sooo in love with pinterest.. the inventor is a genesis) Check out what I’ve got so far…
Scrumptious looking lemonade with fancy straws…
Lovely glass jugs with taps… I wonder if I’ll be able to find some in Somerset??
Homemade sandwiches and freshly baked mini quiches…(hunger pains are starting to kick in)
Delicious looking avocado boats…
Little jars of sweets and mini deserts…(all very pink and girly)
Ice cream is a must have…it’s my favorite thing in the whole world…
And of course you can’t have a garden party without some very pretty cupcakes. I think I’ll make mine pink with polka dot cases…
