Review: Kids Parties by Lisa Atwood

I love parties! This luscious party book is beautifully and very creatively compiled, with gorgeous ideas snuck into a fabulous variety of party themes.
Atwood has loads of tips on how to throw the most creative, stress-free party, but doesn’t compromise on beauty and festivity.
There are party cake and food ideas (including delicious recipes), divine ideas on cookie and cupcake parties, all rounded out with drool-worthy photos.

Although many of the ideas contained in the book aren’t necessarily exclusive, there are some great new ideas and everything is so beautifully done, it re-inspires.

Information is presented in a way that will get the creative juices flowing for any party lover, kids included, and Atwood doesn’t fail to target the most important element of all – the kids. In other words, fun and deliciousness isn’t lost in the inherent beauty and style.

Themes include an Easter, backyard, tiki, winter, pizza and Halloween party. Get it for the presentation, enjoy the inspiration.
