Hi TGs,
Who loves planning birthday parties? I do! Parties are so much fun but they can be a lot of work, especially if you don’t know where to start. I was lucky enough to meet with event architect and stylist Philip Carr who had all the answers! I learnt so much about designing a beautiful party area.
Philip taught me that you should decide on an idea, theme or colour and carry it through. For my party, Philip chose a strawberry tablecloth and then organised big bowls of strawberries and pink roses. Philip also suggested great games to play including: musical chairs, pin the tail on the donkey and pass the parcel.
Invitations should be sent around 3-4 weeks before the party so people have time to get organised and excited for the event. It’s the best feeling when you receive an invitation!

Me and Philip Carr!

I also recently had a behind-the-scenes tour of the movies. Even though the cinema is now 100% digital, there were giant reels and film on display which was really interesting. Did you know that the strips of film used to be delivered to the movies on reels and then fed into a projector? The light from the projector would create an image on the screen. Technology has come so far, it’s pretty awesome that we can now take photos and videos on our phones!

I made friends behind the scenes at the movies!

Keep smiling and dreaming.
Love Candice xx

PS: Saturday Disney is on Channel 7 from 6am-7am and then we switch over to 7TWO from 7am-9am.
