Finding denim or denim look alike material is easy as most fabric shops have a selection. Take this material and make table cloths and sofa throws. If you are handy with a sewing machine, cushion covers are a cinch. Blue balloons, napkins and plates are a must.

Floral dresses, semi formal or a summer print is perfect for this theme. If you are feeling crafty why not make all the guests a Tea Cup party hat!

A trip to your local Op-shops will have you stocking up on Teacups and saucers. A mis match of cups and plates gives the vintage look and all the different floral prints on the cups and plates adds to the garden theme. Cake stands, Teapots,sugar bowls and lace table clothes or green table clothes ( garden look) and lace doilies should be used. Hang multi coloured pompoms around the room. Make giant flowers from card and crepe paper to emphasise the garden element of the theme. Paper lanterns can become hot air balloons with teacups as the basket – this look great hanging amongst the pompoms. To complete the look a bunch or two of fresh flowers.
