Now Introducing...Bunting Rental Services!

I have always adored bunting, and consider it a "must have" to decorate for a birthday celebration.



As you know, I offer luxe bunting made of fine wale corduroy and velvet (love love!), and I am also launching three new lines--classic cotton, felt, and paper!



This way there will be bunting suitable for all budgets, and in a range of textures and styles, shapes and sizes--customizable, of course!



Knowing how pricey bunting can get (especially when trying to decorate a large area, and match a unique color scheme that you likely won't use again), I have decided to start renting out bunting! From unique patterns and color-schemes to messages like "The Birthday Girl," "The Birthday Boy," and "Happy Birthday," you will have much to choose from!



Bunting rentals will start at an incredible low cost, with the option to buy if you fall in love with it!



I am starting to add some new bunting designs to the collection...any requests for color schemes, patterns, themes, fabrics?



Hip Hip Hooray for Bunting! Contact us at info@katelandersevents.com with your bunting rental inquiry today!

Kate Landers Events, LLC, Newest Addition...Cupcake Toppers!

While we designed these several months ago, it has taken me awhile to get a moment to give these darling cupcake toppers the attention they deserve!



Exclusively created for Kate Landers Events, LLC, by that *amazing* talented artist Jane, who was featured in a recent post as well, these cucake toppers are anything but the norm. They are not your standard paper on a toothpick (which I think are really cute too, by the way, and you will be seeing some of those in our shoppe soon as well!!!!). These cupcake toppers are hand made of red felt and the blue & white gingham fabric, attached carefully to a white lollipop stick. They can be customized with an initial (either for the birthday child, or one for each guest to "personalize" their cupcake!!!) or number (perfect for "1" for a first birthday!!!).



These shining stars in the world of cupcake toppers are now available through Kate Landers Events, LLC. While you may not see them in the shoppe quite yet (a work in progress...) you can contact us at info@katelandersevents.com and place your custom order or inquire with any questions you may have, today!!!!

Thanks Jane, for yet again wowing us with your work!

Want to see how these could be incorporated with other party decor? See some ideas below for party goodies that we think would match perfectly!

One Of My FAVORite Things!

Charming Personalized Fabric Party Favor Pouches...say that five times fast!!!



I have adored our darling custom fabric favor pouches for some time now.



Available in white and natural, your choice of 3 sizes, these pouches are designed to work around your favors!!!



Select from a large variety of brilliant satin ribbons...



Gingham ribbons as well...





Select from umpteen fonts, ink colors, even custom artwork (like your child's silhouette), all great ways to dress these up and match the rest of your party decor.



The great part is, no, you do not have to order 12 identical totes--each one CAN be personalized with each guest's name!!!



Young children love party favors, and are often more partial to treats with their own name on them.



There is something special about going for a favor hunt to find a tote especially made for you.



In addition to being great for birthday party favor pouches, we also consider these to be fabulous for Easter Baskets, Personalized Halloween Treat bags and Santa's Sacks for Stockings!

And what to do with your pouch after the party is all over? Why, keep in near your pillow for the Toothfairy's next visit....these pouches make a lovely safe place to keep your tooth, and your name will ensure that she will find it!

Available in our shoppe here.

The Rose Collection For Your Little Queen!

As promised, the Rose Queen Collection has arrived!



Where did the inspiration for this collection come from? Read On!



Growing up in Pasadena, California, I walked to view the Rose Parade with my parents (often on dad's shoulders as a toddler) since I was a tiny tot, and I always adored the Rose Queen and her "Royal Court" of Princesses. I would practice my Rose Court wave for the rest of the day! I even, funny enough, would come home, fill up my red wagon with my favorite dolls in their finest dresses, surround them with every flower blooming in the yard, and stroll down the driveway with my own "Rose Court Float"!!!

I am thrilled to finally introduce you to our precious Rose Crown shown in white with pale pink and coral pink roses and rosebuds, and the sweetest soft green leaves (also available in several other color combinations).



This crown is an original pattern I created that closes perfectly in back, with a generous strip of velcro tucked inside to allow for significant size adjustment to grow along with your little queen!



You will notice such fine details as the gorgeous hand-sewn felt roses and rosebuds, created by the incredibly kind and thoughtful, extraordinarily talented artist Jane. She and I have been working together on all of these items for this collection, and have loved seeing these beautiful felt creations come together! It has been such a delightful experience.



Every crown is created to be durable, while looking incredibly delicate! Notice the detailed trim, hand-stitched vines...yes, these sweet crowns are made entirely by hand!!!!



What would a crown be without a matching wand? Our darling Rose Wand is a precious match for our Rose Crown, and also is lovely on its own for your little ballerina or fairy princess!



Shown in white with light pink and coral roses, with coral satin and pale pink velvet ribbon, it is available in several other colors as well. A delightful new addition for your little one's dress up chest or a perfect party favor with the matching crown or pair of our felt fairy wings!



Each wand is hand made, created to be durable to grant thousands of wishes!!!





And lastly, our prized Rose Capelet. I am in love with this sweet addition, that makes for a perfect Rose Queen costume.



This royal and regal Rose Capelet is shown in white as well as pink. Hand sewn felt roses are stitched on each side of the Peter-Pan style collar, a perfect match to our Rose Crown and Wand! Notice the sweet stitched trim and beautiful ribbon.



Your choice of color for the ribbon--I loved the white and coral satin so much, I just had to do it in both for the white capelet! And for the pink capelet, the deep fuchsia is a personal favorite, but we have a darling green as well.



Our capelets are available in a variety of colors (custom orders encouraged!), and sizes from the tiniest for your darling's little doll to match, then a petite, medium, and large.



We hope you are as enchanted over these as we are!!!



Check in our shoppe this week to purchase these beauties! We are taking pre-orders now, please contact us at info@katelandersevents.com to place your order today!
