Hi, we are having a birthday party (2-year old) next month and I am just wondering if you can help me with some ideas? I want a neutral color scheme for an ice cream party. Any ideas for colors for tablecloths, napkins, etc.
Any ideas of where to buy favors? If you've done an ice cream party, can you share anything special that you did for it?
I didn't do a theme for my daughter's 2, but I did have balloons everywhere. Best favor for 2 year olds.
Oriental trading has some cute stuff for an ice cream party. They have really cute bowls shaped like an ice cream cones for cheap. My friend did her little boys birthday as an ice cream party and did the bright colors. And everyone got their own personalized spoon to use and take home and a silly straw. She also had an ice cream birthday cake instead of a regular cake. And she had sprinkles, hot fudge, nuts, whip cream, cherries, etc so they could make their own sundaes (or their parents could)
Have fun!
Have you looked at party city? They have a TON of different themes and tons of favors!
If it was me, I'd go to any local party supply store and just get some brightly colored tablecloths, napkins, cups, and bowls. Since you have warm weather, make it summery with bright orange, blue, green, and yellow. I'd stick to a simple vanilla ice cream and get toppings the kids can decorate their ice cream with on their own. Everything will look bright and inviting. Get balloons in the same colors, enough for each child to take a balloon home when they leave. 2 year olds love this.
