I’m so excited to share this Princess and the Pea birthday party with you today.
The reason I love this party so much is that every aspect of it was made by Anj, of Snowy Bliss, for her sweet daughter. And she has made it easy for you to recreate.
Great parties don’t have to cost a fortune if you’re willing to do a lot of it yourself. And this creative mama does just that. A girl after my own heart. So sit back and enjoy the show.
Her daughter wanted a PJ party. I guess you would call it a Hap-PEA Birthday PEA- j Party.
It all begins with her hand made Invitation
which opens up with the princess bed on one page and the invite on the other.
THE PRINCESS BED
Anj actually hand drew the headboard and her husband got into the act as he hauled and stacked 5, yes 5 matresses and box springs to make the table. A piece of particle board was added on top of it to give it a solid flat surface for the plates and such.
Adorable fabric was layered to make the bed coverings or the tablecloth.
Given the height of the table, the girls got to stand around the table to eat and loved the novel idea of it.
To finish off the look, green poms were hung above the bed.
Now for THE SWEETS. Anj made this adorable cake,
and Cake Topper
and when you cut into the cake what do you see? Peas ofcourse.
Anj used her polka dot cake technique to get the affect.
Ikea and finished off with a paper crown that wrapped around each one.
She purchased the green balls at Party City, spray painted, glittered and filled with, what else, green candy.
This is one lucky little princess. Wouldn’t you say?
Be sure to visit Snowy Bliss blog for more details on the party and her Etsy Shop so you can recreate it too.
Thank you Anj for sharing your amazing party with us!

How were the sleeping masks made? I was hoping to do some for m daughter’s party coming up, but am short on time and want a no-sew or nearly no sew solution. Thanks!
Hi Kristin! This was a guest post by Snowny Bliss and I have her link above if you’d like to contact her however I can make a suggestion. For a no sew option you could cut the mask shape out of felt and iron on the coordinating fabric on top of it using stitch witchery or a sew adhesive. She used pinking sheers to keep the cotton fabric from fraying. Attach the elastic to both sides when ironing on the adhesive. Hope this helps and have a great party!
