A few weeks ago I posted about a little project I was working on with Canvas Events Space. Us DIY-party loving moms got together to come up with a series of how-to videos to help you with your next party!
I had to manage my low E.Q. just to make sure I don’t prematurely share the photos with you! But my oh my, it’s finally out! Take a look at our sweet and sassy Pretty in Pink (and Gold) DIY Dessert Spread. It took us just a little less than 30 minutes to turn this blank space…
…into this beauty! Find out how we did it in our tutorial video here, along with some of my tips on how to create your own DIY dessert spread.
But first, let’s admire these snaps taken by…me! Haha! 😂 My favorite detail has got to be the paper cup string light garland (how to video here). The pictures don’t do justice to the whimsy that the twinkling lights bring! This is a classic example of how your homemade party spreads don’t need to be grand to look pretty, or as we like to call it lately, “Instagram-worthy”. Just add a few charming details, a careful selection of snacks and sweets and you’re all set! (And by careful selection, I mean even partially sliced cakes! Sorry, my toddler couldn’t resist! Haha!)
Here I am with Monique and Tonjee, the super duo and party-loving mommas behind Canvas. Make sure you stay tuned to the blog for our tutorials on how to make these DIY tissue paper tassels and DIY paper cup string lights!

I prefer simple party spread like this. The most important thing for me is the food, I make sure that it is not just instagram-worthy but yummy too. 🙂
Such gorgeous set up. Thanks for the idea. I usually do the small items myself, the background someone else, as I’m not that confident yet in doing them. Your set up gave me an idea on how to start. =)
Love it! Simple but cute hihi 🙂 I’m thinking of having just having a small with this kind of setup for my daughter’s 2nd birthday! Thanks for sharing 🙂
I love the paper cup garland. I never thought you can use it to make a charming design. I also like the simplicity of the design. It’s not overloaded. So nice to look at.
Oooh how pretty! I love simple setups. I love your crate too. It adds the rustic touch to the whole thing.
With a little creativity, you wouldnt imagine that those were just paper cups and japanese paper. Everything looked nice and attractive. I guess everyone can do those designs, one just need to believe he can and yes, it helps of he subscribes to diy party blogs like yours. Creativity as well counts.
wow, this is super nice and cool! I’d love to learn how to do this!
I like simple but pretty dessert tables. 🙂 I like the gold lights you hanged. I’m thinking of doing somethign similar for a future craft project.
Beautiful! We just celebrated my younger daughter’s 1st birthday recently and I wish I had seen your post before that time. Sayang! Well next time then. 🙂
It’s so simple yet so elegant! Galing! 🙂 I’d like to host my own party nga to be able to try this haha
I love DIY parties. I normally throw one myself. Why spend much if you can make them, right?
Your set up us so dainty. The paper cup lighting is ingenious.
So pretty! I love the cup garland idea. The gold theme is a real stand out!
What a lovely set up! And the cake looks super delicious!
How I wish that someday I can make this one, a nice set up. I love the colors combination
I love this. It looks so simple but so beautiful. I hope I’m as creative as you guys to come up with something as this. Will definitely watch your tutorials so I can learn. 🙂
I like the gold cup banners!! Thanks for sharing your ideas!
I love how it looks simple yet elegant! Wondering lang, where did u buy the divider? (where u hang the lights in the background) thank you!
