Set like the stage of a magic show, the dessert table was the focal point of the party. A red velvet tablecloth elegantly covered the table, with matching velvet curtains hanging above. The Magical Party Abracadabra Banner (held up by wooden Garden Dice) hung in front of the table, enticing guests to take a closer look. I also used a collection of wooden cake stands and trays to add a more vintage feel to the spread.
Little details helped create vintage flair. The adorable Magical Party Cupcake Wrappers with Picks stole the show and made it so easy to turn cupcakes into magical treats.
Everyone loves popcorn, and serving it in these DIY Magic Hat Popcorn Cups added to the old-fashioned magic show feel of the party. You can learn how to make these darling popcorn cups here.
These fun Magical Party Mini Magic Cubes encouraged guests to try a little magic of their own. Displaying them on a cake stand was an easy way for guests to grab their own piece of magic!
The Magic Party Cutouts hanging on the wall above the dessert table were one of my favorite elements of the set up. The vintage-inspired artwork just added so much to the old-fashioned look and feel of the party.
Of course every little magician needs a wand! I put the Magic Wands on a cake tray so they were ready and waiting for little guests to cast some fantastical magic spells.
