I will show you how a Beatrix Potter party can be easily put together and it looks adorable!

My sweet and creative sister-in-law threw her son an amazing birthday party recently! It was an adorable joint birthday party with her sister and her sister’s daughter.

Cousins having a sweet Beatrix Potter birthday party together!

And you know I love a good birthday party {who doesn’t?}. The decor was simply stunning.

Have you ever been to a Beatrix Potter birthday party? Me neither!

And what a fantastic knockout idea for an Easter tablescape too.

A Beatrix Potter Party graphic.

The captivating photos below say it all.

I bought my daughter the collection of Beatrix Potter books before she was even born.

Peter Rabbit Library books on the shelf, with baby keepsake items.

I even found this adorable miniature set! Adorable.

Silver baby mirror, cup and Peter Rabbit books.

So when we received this cute invitation in the mail, I couldn’t wait to go!

{Invitation from Anista Designs on Etsy}

The party was just like the books!

Beatrix potter party invitations.

Okay, these Peter Rabbit cupcake holders are too cute for words!

They were purchased from Amazon {affiliate link below}.

The yummy treats were all made locally from the Sweet Bake Shop.

She even has a cute blog too!

Did you notice the cute signs in the mossy clay pots? Such a great idea for displaying the menu.

I’ll post the titles above each photo.

Flopsy’s Lemon Drops

Jeremy Fisher’s Splash

I tasted it and it didn’t taste swampy at all!

A water jug with a spout with cucumber and orange and lemon in it.

The perfect centrepiece! Kale flowers, ivy and moss.

Don’t ever go into Mr. McGregor’s Garden! Someone they managed to escape with these yummy veggies.

Fresh vegetables and a dip on the table.

Mrs. McGregor’s Roses

White cookies with roses icing piped on top.

Benjamin Bunnies

You can find the recipe for these too-cute-to-eat-cookies here.

Mrs. Tittlemouse’s Scones were snatched up quickly!

Have you ever seen anything more adorable than a Peter Rabbit and Jemima Puddle-duck reading together under a cloche? I think not!

The weather was stunning that day! So stunning, in fact, that photo taking was a bit difficult.

Here is a lovely tea set on a vintage cart.

This adorable banner says “We Are One”. So cute!

The banner is from Kylie’s Chic Boutique on Etsy.

I love this guest book table. Guests were to write their names in a Peter Rabbit book.

Radish, anyone?

Veggie centrepiece of radishes, carrots and lettuce leaves.

The frame displays the little ones favourite activities and their nicknames. So cute.

Guest book table with the opened guest book.

Such a delicious cake! It was a family recipe made by the cousins’  grandmother.

A chocolate sprinkled birthday cake.

Guests left with their own copy of a Beatrix Potter book and a pick of either the rose or bunny cookie along with pack of gummy worms.

Beatrix Potter goodie bags.

My daughter picked the bunny 😉

Let’s look at those Peter Rabbits one more time.

I think this was simply one of the most adorable parties I’ve seen.

And everyone had such a lovely time.

Doesn’t it give you some wonderful ideas for an Easter tablescape?

    Hi. I really love the Peter Rabbit theme party. I am having a dear friend a baby shower and I am doing the Beatrice Potter Peter Rabbit theme but can’t seem to find the Peter rabbit cupcake holder where he is pushing the wheel barrow. Can you help? Was this your party shown and perhaps you would like to sell yours? Thanks so much.

That’s feels good for a start of the week. 💚 Design dilemma: did you know that changing the doors and trim work jn your house can bring it up to date?

Recently I wrote a blog post all about Chantilly L Recently I wrote a blog post all about Chantilly Lace by @benjaminmoore. First, I love Simply White. I’ve painted it everywhere in my house, walls, cabinets, doors, trim. The color is perfect in my house. In some houses it shows a yellow undertone. If it does, White Dove is usually a great choice. But this is what I learned about 6 months ago in a color course I took, Chantilly Lace has nearly zero undertone! 💚➡️ Be sure to check out my blog post on Chantilly Lace and all the real house examples. I also have posts on the best way to pick white & grey paint colors in your home. I’ll leave direct links in stories & in a highlight in my profile. 💚
