Planning a kids birthday party is one of my favourite things to do (even if it can be a little stressful, expensive and tiring) – I do sometimes wish I was a party planner!
I love nothing better than coming up with a theme, sorting the decorations and tableware and seeing it through down to the very last little detail.
Miss Marnie may not have had a birthday bash this year but that doesn’t mean I haven’t been keeping an eye out for the best bits to ensure your little VIB’s bash is the event of the year.
So, as my gift to you here is my favourite 5 Show-Stopping party supply shops …
