Styling tips
Twinkle Twinkle Little Party shares its top tips for pulling off this event.

Tip 1
Decide on the table you would like to use for the dessert station. Make sure it’s big enough to accommodate all items.

Tip 2
Fill up glass jars with Valentine’s Day treats, such as lollipops, candies and mini chocolate bites.

Tip 3
To put this fun Conversation Hearts backdrop together, decide on the size of table you are going use. It will help decide how tall/wide you would like the heart to be. Using tape, arrange the balloons on the wall by alternating the colors to form a big heart.

Tip 4
Add the dessert and other treats to the dessert table about 45 minutes before the event starts to keep the food as fresh as possible.
