How To Style Your Colourful Party

Some parties call for pastels and elegance. And then there are the parties that call for pure, unapologetic joy - all the colour, all the fun, absolutely no holding back.

That's exactly what the new Playful Brights collection is all about. 🌈

Bold checkerboard prints, rainbow candy stripes, "Let's Party" scallop-edged tableware in every colour of the spectrum, tassel balloons that make you want to dance - this is the collection for kids' summer birthdays, garden parties and anyone who believes a celebration should look as good as it feels.

Here's how to style it from start to finish.

Choose your party colour palette 🎨

The beauty of this collection is that the colour is already built in - you don't need to overthink it. The palette spans bold primary reds, greens and yellows through to soft lilacs, oranges and blues, all brought together through the checkerboard and stripe prints that run throughout.

Mix and match freely - this is a collection that's designed to be layered up, the more colour the better.

Create the perfect colourful party table 🎉

Start with the Playful Brights Checkerboard Party Plates available in orange and lilac checkerboard with gold scallop edges and that brilliant "Let's Party" lettering, they're genuinely some of the most fun party plates we've ever stocked.

Layer the checkerboard plates with the stripe cups - yellow stripe, green stripe and lilac checkerboard all mixed together - for a table that looks brilliantly bold and considered at the same time.

The Let's Party Yellow Stripe Scallop Napkins with gold foil lettering are a beautiful finishing touch - that "Let's Party" gold foil detail is really special and looks gorgeous on the table.

Style the colourful party cake table 🎂

The three-tier checkerboard cake stand is the star of the show and honestly one of the most impressive pieces we've ever had in stock.

Each tier features a different checkerboard print - lilac, orange and blue - with a striped centre pole, scalloped gold edges and a little red 3D ball on top.

Load it up with cupcakes and watch every single guest stop to photograph it.

Top your birthday cake with the Happy Birthday To You Multicolour Cake Candle - that bold multicolour bubble letter design on the white scalloped candle is absolutely beautiful and photographs incredibly well, or add the Multicolour Bunting Cake Topper with its rainbow mini flags and tassel ends for a really fun, playful cake moment.

Hang your Colourful party decorations ✨

The Let's Party Bunting is one of the best in the collection - each flag alternates between checkerboard and stripe prints in different colours with gold "Let's Party" lettering throughout.

Hang it above the table or across a doorway and it completely transforms a room.

For your main birthday focal point, the Happy Birthday Multicolour Banner with its bold bubble letter tiles in every colour is brilliant - and the personalised name bunting hanging below it is such a lovely touch. Seeing "HAPPY BIRTHDAY FELIX" (or your little one's name!) across the wall in that style is genuinely heart-melting.

The Playful Brights Honeycomb Decorations are absolutely spectacular hung from the ceiling - bold circles and diamond shapes in red, yellow, green and blue with coordinating tassels below.

Hang a cluster of them overhead and the room looks like a proper party venue.

Colourful balloons - the tassel moment 🎈

The Happy Birthday To You Multicolour Latex Balloons are a real wow - bold solid colours in red, orange, yellow, green, purple and blue each printed with "Happy Birthday To You" in white, then finished with long rainbow crepe paper tassels trailing below.

They look absolutely spectacular as a cluster and the tassel detail makes them genuinely unlike anything else on the market. Tie them to a chair, float them as a group or use them as a doorway display - either way, guests are going to absolutely love them.

Don't forget the colourful birthday details 🌈

The It's My Birthday Multicolour Sash is one of our absolute favourites from the whole collection - cream with bold multicolour bubble lettering and a wavy trim, it's joyful, fun and completely on theme.

Perfect for kids and adults alike. The Colourful Birthday Badge with its checkerboard design, number and rainbow ribbon tassels is gorgeous - pin it on and you've instantly got the most fun birthday outfit accessory going.

And the Colourful Party Boxes - with their rainbow stripe and checkerboard mix - are perfect for party bags, sending guests home with a little gift or using as individual lunch boxes on the table. They look brilliant in a row and photograph beautifully.
