Whimsical and stylish, the birthday theme is bright and colorful combining key elements symbolic of birthdays like gifts, cupcakes, birthday cakes, streamers, balloons, stars, beads and lots of cheerful color that can be used over and over for many birthday parties to come.

A quirky cupcake stand centerpiece of bright colors, spots and decorations with a peppermint swirl top makes the ideal platform for 3 creative cupcake candles.  Flocked curly sprays of hot pink (or orange) and yellow on the right and teal blue and moss green on the left add height and drama to the table. Use colored water or festive party beads to color the 12" clear glass Eiffel tower vases.

Continue the fun with birthday presents & ribbons coordinated with your curly sprays and dressed in designer-styled wrapping paper, then placed on each side of the centerpiece. Ceramic cupcake canisters in orange, green, blue, or pink anchor your birthday centerpiece at each end.

Pink ceramic cupcake salt & pepper shakers are an adorable, yet functional, addition to the scene.  Use metallic party beads as napkin rings on white napkins to contrast with the bright colors.

Sprinkle some sparkle with metallic birthday confetti of red balloons, gold cakes, blue & green streamers, and pink stars. For that extra special pizazz, place a colored LED ice cube or submersible LED floral light in each water glass.

To create a festive birthday dinner table, start with a multi-colored centerpiece that is substantial, but not so large that it obstructs the view across the table.  Choose a variety of decorations representative of "birthday", such as gifts, balloons (dots), streamers (squiggles), birthday cakes, party hats, and cupcakes.  Repeat your colors and icons as much as possible, but maintain lots of variety for a birthday party.

Add height and whimsy with colorful sprays of balls and/or squiggles to create an atmosphere of fun.  Introduce more color with clear vases filled with color-coordinated water or party beads.

Use cocktail napkins, on each plate, repeating your colors and shapes to add cohesiveness, such as Birthday Fever napkins with dots or Cupcake & Confetti beverage napkins.

Use ceramic cupcake canisters and small wrapped gifts as unique accents. Or use delicious-looking decorated cupcake candles.

Whenever possible, make your decorations functional or make functional items decorations. For example, wrap white dinner napkins with bright metallic multi-colored party beads for unique napkin rings that make festive necklaces for dinner.  And, use a pair of wrapped gifts on a tray or a set of pink cupcake salt & pepper shakers to be useful, continue the theme, and make a very impressive detail. 

Confetti on the bar, dinner table, and bathroom counter, used sparingly, goes a long way to give your event a finishing touch that is fun, yet subtle. Scatter a few pieces of metallic cake party confetti of green & blue streamers, pink stars, red balloons, and gold birthday cakes or metallic cakes & streamers confetti of gold, red, purple & teal birthday cakes, dots, curly-qs, streamers, and "HAPPY BIRTHDAY"s on a white tablecloth for a tiny detail most will notice.

Decorate the bar area for the pre-dinner cocktail area with one or more placecard holders to announce a birthday greeting or drinks being served, like these glittered parfait sundaes.  Serve cocktails with beverage napkins featuring colors coordinated with your decorations. Add LED colored ice cubes in cocktails or dinner water glasses for another easy to execute a surprise to delight your guests.

Incorporate "Happy Birthday" throughout your venue, such as greeting the birthday boy or girl and guests with hammered metal balloon-shaped yard stakes, Happy Birthday picks, candles, and a banner.

And, if you're looking to really turn up the festivity factor add birthday ceiling swirls. And for the guest of honor, a birthday cake hat complete with "lit" candles, which you may also use as a bathroom decoration or centerpiece.

Then skip the ubiquitous birthday candles and wow your guests with a closed flower birthday candle that opens into fourteen burning candles and spins around playing "Happy Birthday" to complete a memorable event for someone special.

Find a wide selection of unique birthday candles, including bombs, dynamite, tiki gods, Lego blocks, bats, lighters, digits, matchsticks, letters, & mini tapers, as well as birthday decorations to inspire your creativity.
