A and I were invited to a spring banquet at another church this past Friday night. The theme was "Sweet, Sweet Spirit." As soon as we walked in, we noticed all of the colorful decorations everywhere. The ladies who decorated used the game, Candyland, as their source of inspiration. I was really impressed with it all, so I had to share it with you. You might be able to use these ideas for your next ladies banquet or a birthday party!
After we found a table to sit at, the first thing we noticed were the goodies at our place setting.
Circus animal cookies, M&M's, gum, bottled water, and a pencil (which was used for a couple of "candy" word games) were placed on top of a polka dot napkin. Each table also had a different colored table cloth. Candyland is all about colors, and this was just the beginning of it!
I really liked these neat place cards that were placed at each setting.
The program was placed inside our beautiful stemware.
The centerpiece held our dessert--sweet and colorful cupcakes. Not only did they look good, but they were scrumptious as well.
These giant pieces of candy hung over our tables. With some paper plates, construction paper, tissue paper and cellophane, these could be put together easily.
Colored construction paper lined the walls to make it look like the game board.
I loved these big game board pieces. They were close to three feet tall. Here's a close up of one of them...
Pretty cute, huh?
This is the first bulletin board which says the title of the banquet with colorful dots around it. A Candyland game board sits on the drink table underneath it.
The second bulletin board quoted the theme verse for the evening. The speaker spoke on bitterness, which is the opposite of having a sweet spirit. It was both a convicting and encouraging message. We had a super time with all of the girls and ladies there and hope to go again next year.:)
