Leftover Easter Candy

April 13, 2009 By divinepartyconcepts

I hope that everyone had a wonderful weekend. Now that Easter is over and you have an overabundance of candy what do you do with it??

Here is a colorful way to use jelly beans as spring decorations.

I found a Leftover Easter Candy Cake that you can use your candy to bake.

Make s’mores from left over peeps. Peeps work great in s’mores because they are very similar to marshmallows. You can use leftover chocolate eggs or bunnies as the chocolate part of the s’more and the peeps as the marshmallow part.

A couple of other ideas would be to chop up chocolate and use it to make chocolate chip cookies; donate it to your school; melt the chocolate for a fondue party; make a trail mix for snacks for kids but add in some nutritional items with the candy; OR

Of course, you can just keep your candy out and enjoy it as much as you would like!!!

Host an Easter Brunch for Kids

Parents.com has some great ideas on hosting an Easter Brunch for Kids. While you are making all of your Easter plans, don’t forget the kids and do something exciting for them too.

They have instructions on how to make this pop-up card. This could also be used as a place card.

I love this Cupcake Cafe. These would also be great for a Tea Party or a Baby Shower.

Butterfly Party

April 8, 2009 By divinepartyconcepts

I am planning my twin girls 2nd birthday right now and I will share all my ideas for their party soon. For now, I wanted to share what I did for them last year. We celebrated their 1st birthday with a butterfly theme. Their room is decorated in butterfly’s so I thought this would be perfect for their party especially since it was in the spring.

The table is set with a cookie bouquet, the cakes and books for the guests to write birthday wishes to each of the girls.

Here is a closer look at the cookie bouquet. It has butterfly garden ornaments that are in the back with cookies cut out like butterflies, flowers and ladybugs. Next to the cookie bouquet are the girls baby books so everyone could see all that has happened in their first year of their life.
