Setting the Scene<\/h2>\r\n

\"Ice<\/p>\r\n

Your station will need a structure of some kind to draw attention to the sugary servings. Here are 3 options to consider.<\/p>\r\n

1 – Ice Cream Bar Decorations Kit<\/a> – This ready-to-use set via Amazon includes an ice cream bar glitter cutout banner, 2 bar signs, 24 cup tags, 30 toppings\/tent cards, and 5 blank tent cards.<\/p>\r\n

2 – Semi-DIY ice cream bar decorations<\/a> – True to their name, The Crafting Chicks share creative ideas using ready-made elements, like a tabletop tent with a garland of ice cream cutouts; combined with faux ice cream cones made of foam sheets and mini tissue-paper honeycomb balls, a balloon centerpiece, plus ice cream-themed cups, napkins, and favor containers.<\/p>\r\n

3 – DIY ice cream cart<\/a> – A too-cute transformation of a small table into a sweet little cart, \u2105 Homestead Creamery Inc. They just wrapped it in paper, added paper spoked wheels and ice cream decorations, then topped it with a striped canopy on poles. Sweet touches around the venue were pastel-colored pennants, plus ice cream cutouts and cones suspended on nylon strings.<\/p>\r\n

Backdrops & Signs<\/h2>\r\n

Not that guests will need much enticing. But here are super-fun DIY wall decorations to say, “Come and get it!”<\/p>\r\n

4 – DIY balloon backdrop<\/a> – Thanks to The Thinking Closet, here’s the cutest ice cream cone backdrop made with pastel-colored balloons bunched atop cones made from butcher\/kraft paper or waffle-pattern wrapping paper. Plus, a balloon “cherry” topper!<\/p>\r\n

5 – Ice cream cone menu signs<\/a> – To list your treats, Party Like a Cherry crafted party menu signs using kraft paper cones with a waffle pattern drawn on, paper plates in 2 colors for the scoops and in red for the cherry, and cardstock sprinkle cutouts.<\/p>\r\n

Sweet Details<\/h2>\r\n

A final tip is creatively combining a mix of existing party supplies and homemade decorations into a delicious display!<\/p>\r\n

\"Ice<\/p>\r\n

6 – Coordinating party supplies<\/a> – Eat Love Live, London shows how to mix and match adorable elements. See the cardboard ice cream van cake stand; DIY paper cones to hold assorted snacks; paper plates, cups, wooden ice cream spoons, and napkins all in sweet colors. And finally, hanging honeycomb ice cream cones overhead and ice cream bunting to dress up the table.<\/p>\r\n

7 – Tissue paper ice cream sundaes<\/a> – Just like making tissue paper pompoms, these sweet scoops from Dimples and Tangles fill assorted ice cream glassware, each topped with tissue “whipped cream” and a red pompom “cherry.” Tissue confetti adds a festive finish!<\/p>\r\n

8 – Ice cream centerpieces<\/a> – Talk about using what’s available! Cathie Filian demos how to transform mini Chinese paper lanterns in ice cream colors and tall plastic cups into faux ice cream cones. She even added brown felt “chocolate sauce” and tissue paper ruffles as “whipped cream.”<\/p>\r\n

All that ice cream station decorating calls for a round of frozen treats<\/a>, don’t you think?! Oh, and don’t forget the ice cream-themed party favors<\/a>, too!<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
