They’re FINALLY HERE! Let the 2012 London Olympic games begin. With just a few short days until the famed opening ceremonies, Deanna of Mirabelle Creations shows us how to put one darling dessert table together, perfect for your weekend gathering! Deanna tells us:
This Olympics Dessert Table is an inexpensive, easy party that I created in less than 24 hours. It would be a great brunch or play date set up. Or, if you are creating your own Opening Ceremonies, like we are, it would be perfect for that, too.
My FAVORITE DETAIL? The oreo gold medals (psst… tutorial HERE!) They’re brilliant and so much fun for kids! Plus, the adorable medal signage as the backdrop is too cute for words (also included in the printable collection!) This table is full of simple, last minute ideas + snag these FREE Printables and you’ll be ready to play in the big games this weekend!
Party details, as told by Deanna:
{FOOD} For the food, I made Go For Gold Pineapple Muffins, Oreo Gold Medals, Watermelon Olympics Rings, and Golden Cherry Cups. These were all festive desserts that could easily be recreated for a Summer Olympics Party. The muffins were topped with the free party circles. I designed the printables to be preppy, clean, and colorful. The stripes were inspired by the USA Olympics Opening Ceremonies outfit design.
{THEME} I included the word, “Inspire” on the party circles because the slogan for the London Olympics is “Inspire a Generation”. I loved that slogan since I designed this Olympics party for kids, in particular.
{DECOR} The dessert table also included a free printable Party Sign, which reads, “Let the Games Begin”. For the dessert table backdrop, I found three 8×10 black frames. I cut out cardboard to fit in the frames, then covered the cardboard with blue and white gingham fabric. I attached a white cupcake liner to the back of the three Olympics Medals. I attached a red ribbon and the medals to the fabric covered cardboard to make the Olympic Medals Art. The gingham fabric was also used as a table runner on the dessert table. I planned and put together the party in less than 24 hours — perfectly simple so that it could be easily recreated for a small Olympics party or playdate.
