It'due south no secret that I honey to entertain and throw parties. So when I had the opportunity to throw a Gals Garden Party, I hopped on the idea.

The smaller, intimate settings are my favorite get-to's, for a couple of reasons.

• Not as much work

• More one-on-one time with my closest gal pals

Gals Garden Party

The political party set up was and then fun, and extremely Piece of cake… that I couldn't wait to share how I did it with you all, so you can possibly create a garden political party for a girls luncheon, bridal shower, etc. The ground level table & seating, was something that I had been wanting to do for a long time. It puts a twist on the average outdoor gathering.

DIY Set-Up

Y'all won't believe what I used to create the low-setting table. CRATES. Aye! I've been wanting crates for a long time to create a little DIY projection that I have in mind for the kiddos, and one time I realized that I could utilise crates for both ideas… it was a no-brainer. I headed to the store and picked some up.

Since there were just a few girls, I but picked upward 4 crates. Flipped them over, threw a sheet of yellow fabric over the top and viola… a table for the garden party! 😉

For seating, I looked high and low for patio cushions at the shop… and came upwardly empty handed. Then, thankfully, a lightbulb went off in my head. I HAD patio cushions, but they weren't the right colour. And so, realizing that I had red polkadot fabric in my overflowing, unorganized craft cupboard… I pulled information technology out and put it to use. {Want to know a surreptitious? I used duck tape to seal the red cloth effectually the pillows! Haha! Just hey.. information technology worked. And then, later on the party, all I had to do was pull the red fabric off, and I had my blue/white striped patio cushions again!}

I used simple decor. Simple = Classy in this blazon of setting. Small cacti or flowers, a welcome sign, and a small serving cart full of some extras, was the perfect amount of simple.

Since this party ready-upwardly revolved around the dejeuner hr, and outdoors…I knew I wanted to keep the menu light and finger-foodish.

• Cucumber Sandwiches

• Mini Fruit Salads

• Cobb Dip

The party set up was so fun, and extremely EASY... that I couldn't wait to share how I did it with you all, so you can possibly create a garden party for a girls luncheon, bridal shower, etc. The ground level table & seating, was something that I had been wanting to do for a long time. It puts a twist on the average outdoor gathering.

Every identify setting had a little picnic tiffin handbasket that I've been DYING to apply for something, and this was the perfect excuse. I placed a piece of white fabric inside each basket, then gently placed the cucumber sandwiches in, and piled tortilla chips effectually the sandwiches to hold them in there. {Chips for the dip} The mini fruit salads were perfect for the small light-green polka cups that I had besides been chompin' at the bit to use.

Now the dip… I wanted that to be shareable. This is past far my FAVORITE dip to make for my parties. Since my guests usually scrape the pan clean, I knew I better not have a shortage of it that day.

I did decide to mix upward the recipe a flake, and use Kraft French Onion dip as the base. I had previously "made," the base of operations of this dip, merely when I realized that I could use one of my favorites, direct out of the container… I was all for shaving some fourth dimension off of my schedule that mean solar day. Besides, who doesn't dearest french onion dip? No worries, I'll give you the recipe for this glorious dip:
