The sweetie table.

Got out all the jars and things we've collected for the sweetie table this morning to try out a few wee layout ideas and came across one we both like. When you view the photos, our cupcake tower will be on the blue box at the back :)

The little teapots in the front there will hold things like powdered sugar should our guests wish to dust a little something on their cupcakes.

We still have one jar to the left of the box to fill. It's currently holding some paper stars Colin and I have made. Also have the jug to fill! We're debating over whether to have those edible straws in their or to use it to hold the red and white and blue and white paper straws for the drinks.

We'll have a couple of these, decorated in our colours with a pinwheel where the bow is, on the table to. We're thinking the right hand side as you look at the photo, at the back. They're for cake pops!

These will go on the same side of the table but at the front. They're just polystyrene cones. We'll be using those swizzlers double lollies though and will completely cover the cone with them! There will be 2 of them.

See that blue box at the back of what will be the sweetie table? We're going to make another 2 of those but rectangular, thinner and shorter. They'll be placed either side of the box holding the cakes right at the very back of the table and will hold pink lemonade in bottles like these. We're going to order personalised stickers to place where the ones in the photo are. They'll also be used on sweetie bags.

To the left of the sweetie table as you look at the first photo, we'll be having this! We were debating over whether to have it alcoholic or not but we think we've decided against that. There will be kids at the reception and we want them to be able to buy it too! So we may make a sign to put next to it, recommending the adults pour themselves one then head up to the bar and stir in a shot of vodka!

These cups and sweetie bags will be placed just in front of the machine. Although I've since found cups that are the same as the kind you get from McDonalds but are a pale blue and white stripe! They're more expensive, though so we'll have to check the budget before working those in!

We plan on having all of this on one table with, hopefully, a baby blue table cloth. We're hoping to have as many pinwheels, toadstools and POM POMS(!!) all over the place as possible and have just stumbled across this image which looks to be incredibly easy to make and cheap, too! We have a few months with a little bit of money left over so we should be able to do this quite easily! We're not allowed to hang anything from the walls, though so this will go right at the back of the table and leaning against the wall as a sort of backdrop.
