Star Light, Star Bright: A Star Gazing Party

thepartyhop-stargazing-01

Starlight, starbright, first star I see tonight…

We probably all knew this memorable little poem by heart from about the time we are old enough to have a sense of whimsy about us. Which makes it the perfect thing to inspire a party for little ones! Wishing on a star while laid out on a blanket gazing up at the heavens sounds like the perfect way to spend an evening while making a few memories.

Sara of Confetti Sunshine was the amazing force behind this beautiful shoot. She arranged for quite a list of talented crafters and bloggers to come together to provide all the items you see here. And as a bonus, there will be tutorials on all the little details! Every day this week, we’ll post a few more. Thanks, Sara!

Stars and constellations studded this sweet spread. Banners, garlands, bunting and a custom pillows made everything a bit magical.

I really can’t wait to see how to make these constellation flashlights–my kids are going to love them.

And it isn’t a party without a few Star Gazing treats. Lovely macarons, mason jar drinks and yummy cupcakes with pretty star toppers were picture perfect at this outing.

The centerpieces turned out lovely. I'm looking forward to making the constellation flashlight!
