I was researching where to find these adorable mini sweet stands recently, and stumbled across the website of the company that actually makes them… hello hanna. Not sure if I’ve been living under a rock or what, but I’m already smitten with this brand! Hello, fabulous placemats! Hello, darling wishing birds! Hello, amazing wishing tree! Hello, creative books!

I’m toying with the idea of using the hello, jungle placemat set for the kids table at my daughter’s first birthday party this month. We’re doing a parade-inspired theme with lots of elephants & other “parading” animals. Here’s a peek at the invite (personal info has been changed).

The placemat colors are a little off from the party’s color palette though…sigh… but I might be able to embellish them a little to help tie everything together at the table. If not, next time we’ll just have to design a theme completely around one of these sets! =) This robot version is fun too:

Here’s a shot of the wishing tree centerpiece, adorned with coordinating extras. {Great reusable centerpiece idea for a bridal or baby shower.} The little birds would also be adorable as glass charms!
