I am so excited to share this Winter ONEderland party I planned for my ADORABLE nephew’s 1st birthday.
My sister asked me back in July to help her plan the party and one day while we were at my parent’s house inspiration struck. Inspired by penguin plates from Target my sister thought it would be the perfect theme for her son’s winter birthday. I worked with Carli at Dimpleprints to create the perfect Winter ONEderland party package. We decided to use crisp bright whites and blues for the perfect wintery color pallet.
I pulled out some old Christmas decorations and transformed my sister’s house into a Winter ONEderland with lots of fun details! So grab a warm cup of coca and enjoy this frosty, fun and oh so sweet party!
I couldn’t have done this party without the help of my mom & sister and some incredible vendors! My sister made the large cutouts for the yard, aren’t they darling?! And with the help of Pinterest she also made the penguin bean bag toss game, which was a big hit with the kids.
My mom made the penguin bowling game from recycled drink bottles.
The beautiful cake was yet another masterpiece by my mom. We had to gently coax her into making it since she went on a cake strike and swears they never look good when she makes them…I would have to disagree! And of course the cake wouldn’t have been complete without the SUPER fab fondant penguins and polar bears made by Maria from Love and Sugar Kisses. Maria also made the incredibly cute fondant cupcake toppers. I love thee little guys, they may even still be sitting on my counter (I couldn’t stand to throw them out!)
The sweet cookies were ordered from The Cookie Jar and they did an excellent job matching the party package.
And the “happy trees” from Piggy Bank Partiescoordinated perfectly with the party package. They really do make me oh, so happy.

Liv says
January 13, 2016 at 5:36 pmThank you so much for providing all your details. Would you mind sharing the printable for the penguin, igloo and polar bear cutout?
Mariah says
January 14, 2016 at 5:44 pmThank you Liv. All of the printables were from Dimpleprints and you can find them here, http://shop.dimpleprints.com/shop/polar-bear-penguin-winter-deluxe-party-package/. Have fun planning your party!
Liv says
January 20, 2016 at 5:04 pmThanks! Yes, I did purchase those items from her for the deluxe package. I was looking for the cutouts that you said your sister made for outside. The ones with the penguin, polar bear and the igloo.
Mariah says
January 20, 2016 at 5:34 pmLiv, we used the images from the printables and a projector to blow up the images onto foam board. We traced the image on the foam board and then painted them. Hope that helps!
