Vintage Strawberry Patch Party

Not too long ago I had the pleasure of throwing a birthday party for a sweet little girl who was turning 4. With her birthday in the fall I was looking for ways to use girly colors to brighten up what was dreary and rainy weather outside! I came across the most darling Strawberry party from Tiffani Thiessen's little girls 4th birthday, check out all the details here. I pulled my inspiration from her party to create my own Vintage Strawberry Patch Party. I loved this idea, not only did I get to use girly colors, but also the bright white milk glass helped to bring a little sunshine indoors for the fall.
I made a simple "Happy Birthday" banner and used vintage inspired patterned paper for the flag banner. I made the flags by using a flag punch, it made the work super easy and didn't take much time at all. I attached the flags along bakers twine to create a banner effect. I also took small round paper doilies and folded them in half over baker twine, they created the cutest banner to add to the flags.
For this girly party I broke out some vintage milk glass pieces and found these adorable napkins at Ikea. They fit the color scheme perfectly!
