Nathalie, from the Australian paper company Imprintables, sent me photos from the super-charming apple-themed party she had for her son, Travis. So cute! And I love that’s it’s totally unisex. And totally adaptable to pretty much any fruit.
Refreshments were child-sized apples, apple lemonade and of course, apple pie with ice-cream. Games were traditional — bobbing for apples, sack races and tug-of-war.
Curious about Apple Lemonade? Me too. So Nathalie graciously shared her simple recipe:
1 bottle of apple juice
1 bottle of pear juice
1 2L bottle of lemonade
Combine; watch the children and mums alike devour this tasty concoction
Sounds delish!
this party is fantastic. talk about being creative.

I love this. Have you seen anything similar with a train theme? I’m working on a train party for my girl and I just don’t have that pervasive style bone in my body.
I love this. It makes me realize how much I love the color green.
nathalie sent me some great photos of this party as well…posted it a couple of weeks ago. If you want to see more head over to http://partyperfectblog.blogspot.com/2008/10/apple-of-my-eye-2.html and http://partyperfectblog.blogspot.com/2008/10/apple-of-my-eye.html
What a great idea! I love the theme and I love anything that has to do with apples! Thanks for sharing!
I think lemonade in Australia is just Sprite, not the traditional American lemonade. Sounds yummy.
So fun and crisp–kind of like apples themselves! Love that green!
wow! simple and classic.
Love it!! Would she share where she got her green spotted paper lantern? That is EXACTLY the color of my middle kids room and I would love to have a few of them up…
I have never seen this theme before, but it is perfect!
Hello,
Thank you for your lovely comments. The paper lanterns were purchased from http://www.vividroom.com.au
The idea for the party sprung from my son’s love for apple pie, crunchy apples and apple juice. I had originally planned a ‘picnic in the park’ party but when he choose an apple printed fabric for the tablecloth and then I thought how one colour can make an impact.
I’m so pleased you have enjoyed viewing this party – I do have a few more parties catered for boys which I’ll pass on.
I would love for you to visit my website http://www.imprintables.com.au
Such a lovely idea for a fall party.
Oh I’m in love with this idea! We’ve so many birthdays to celebrate around here, someone is bound to like this idea at home, too! =)
What an adorable idea! I can’t wait to use this one!
Oh my word…this has to be one of the most clever party themes I’ve ever laid my eyes upon. Thank you for sharing…both of you.
I’m thinking oranges next time?
LOVE the apple party!
what a brilliant idea – and I’m thrilled she has a child who loves apples!
