{Party Packages} Sneak Peek into our NEW Eloise Collection! Cupcake toppers + Wrappers!

It's me Eloise! I am six. I am a city child. I live at the plaza. "Oh my lord there is so much to do...Tomorrow I think I'll pour a pitcher of water down the mail chute....Oooooooooo I absolutely love the Plaza. :) Well we absolutely love Eloise! It is rare to find a party or party collection of this loveable classic by Kate Thompson. So we are excited to be introducing this line for those who love Eloise and want to throw a simply maaarvelous affair. Here is a sneak peek of the new collection to soon be released....stay tuned in May when a little precocious girl turns six like Eloise for a "real party" featuring this line. The line will include the usual suspects: cupcake toppers, banners, placecards, invites, thank you notes etc.


{Inspiration} I adore this Goldilocks and the three bears party!

While searching for a table setting idea for an upcoming Eloise at the Plaza party...I came across this amazing Goldilocks and the three bears party from the Frog Prince Paperie. I was instantly smitten by every last tiny detail. Absolutely adorable!

{Wedding} Breakfast at Tiffany's Inspiration

Who does not love or dream of Tiffany's?! There is something absolutely beautiful about the classic tiffany blue that makes us girls swoon. Visions of Audrey Hepburn decked out in the little black dress and signature shades walking on fifth avenue! I heart NYC and all things tiffany blue and classic. What a beautiful wedding theme this would make or even a gorgeous birthday party. I am definately incorporating this theme into my upcoming Eloise at the plaza party...or another dessert table in my future.



cake love!

{Fragrance Love} We love Reed Diffusers + DIY

I bet you have seen these wonderful little reed diffusers everywhere lately. Probably even in the fragrance section of the supermarket. For those of you who have never tried them...they are fabulous! They have a much nicer smell than any type of plugin and they last longer...for months actually! I kind of have a new obsession with them...and they are in every room in every scent. If you would prefer to DIY...then read on to find the tutorial. You could even go so far as to make the essential oils yourself.


Pier 1


What you will need:



  • Small vase or glass bottle





  • Mineral oil 





  • Vodka





  • Diffuser reeds





  • Essential oil








  • Any container will work. The best have wider base and a small opening at the top to discourage evaporation.  Mineral oil can be found at the pharmacy, and the vodka can be as cheap as you'd like, just make sure its not diluted. Although they may look similar, diffuser reeds are not the same as bamboo skewers. They might work in a pinch, but you can find the reeds for a dollar or two, and they're much more efficient.

    The mineral oil is used as a non-evaporating base to hold the essential oils. Start by pouring a 1/4 cup of oil into a measuring cup. Then, add 2-3 tablespoon of vodka. This won't mix naturally, so stir throughly to emulsify them. The vodka thins the oils to get it to the right consistency to move up the reeds.


    Vase Ikea.



    Next, add the essential oil to the mixture. Your ratio should be around 75% base to 25% essential oil. Stir thoroughly.
    Then just pour everything into your container, and insert 5-6 reeds. After a few hours, flip the reeds over, and continue to flip every few days.

    Enjoy.
