Felicity American Girl Party ~ Food Ideas

My youngest daughter recently celebrated her 6th birthday! She loves American Girl Dolls and decided to have a Felicity themed American Girl party. I’ve got all kinds of ideas and tutorials for you so you can have your own Felicity American Girl party.

Today, I’m going to show you a bit of the overall party as well as show you all the food I served for the party.

I made tons of pom poms to use for the decorations. I used some in these vases on the table.

Above, you can see the food I prepared and served. I normally don’t serve much food other than cake at my daughter’s birthday parties. It just seems as though the kids could care less about the food, so I don’t worry much about it.

For this party, however, it seemed appropriate to serve food. Felicity Merriman is a historical doll from the American Girl line. She is from colonial times. Tea and proper tea service is a factor in the books about Felicity. So, it seemed like it needed to be a part of the party. We didn’t do a ‘real’ tea service, but rather a fun snack type tea for the little and big girls who came.

Pumpkin requested lemonade for her party, so we had lemonade or water as the choices. We served them in the cute mason jars.

Originally, I was planning to sew napkins for each girl. I underestimated how much fabric I needed as well as the time it would take to make the napkins. I ended up finding the plates on clearance at Michael’s and used the fabric to sew a cover for our bar area so that it would match the theme of the party.

Mr. T made these cute mini muffins to help out. We used a mix for them. The girls loved how they looked and tasted.

I made these cute ‘tea’ sandwiches. They were super simple. Just a piece of turkey and a piece of cheese between the bread. The girls gobbled them up. I used mini cutters I got years ago from Pampered Chef to cut some of the sandwiches in flowers and the others in pumpkins (in honor of Pumpkin’s nickname).

For me, one of the most fun parts of this party, was coming up with cute ideas on how to include the dolls in the party. I will have some tutorials for you on how I made each of these, so this is mostly a teaser. I made cute little doll cups and napkins for each girl. I also happened to find those little forks you see at Target in their party section! I was so excited to find them, they are perfect.

The girls all really liked sitting around the table drinking their lemonade and eating. They loved that I had something miniature for their dolls and that they could share their food with their dolls.

On a trip to Michael’s during the summer, Pumpkin and I found tons of American Girl stuff on clearance. We carefully chose things we wanted for her party. One of the things she wanted was this display on which to put cupcakes. We also found the cupcake liners and decorative signs for the mini cupcakes as well as these cupcakes on clearance. Love it when that happens!

More of the decorations I made for the party. I will tell you more about how I made these in another post.

I tried to keep the decorations in line with the colonial theme.

I also tried to keep the favors in line with the theme. I made these favor bags from the same fabric I used for both the doll napkins and the cover for the bar. I will have a tutorial for you on those in another post.

I can’t wait to show you all of the other ideas I have that we used for this Felicity American Girl Party. I’ve got lots of ideas and tutorials coming for you.

    Gabbie wanted to have an American Girl themed party too but we changed it to a tea party with dolls invited. Not all her friends have American Girls! We did a bunch of American Girl art projects though and it was a lot of fun! Your party looks great!

      I bet your tea party was a great time for everyone. We one that didn’t have a doll, thankfully my best friend’s daughters have more than one each, so they brought an extra for this little girl. I’m pretty sure it is now on her Christmas list, which thankfully her mom thought was great and she didn’t hate me for it…whew!
      The art projects sound like a lot of fun. I’ll show you in another post what we did for activities. Wink, Wink! Take care!
      Good luck next Saturday! Can’t believe after all this time our races are only a week away!

      Thank you! She just made me a Thank You card today (from one of her new gifts) to tell me how much she loved it! What a sweet girl and sweet thing for her to do. I think she loved it!

    Everything looks delicious. I love the idea to do everything sized smaller for the kids. Great work! Jodi @ http://www.meaningfulmama.com

      Thank you! The kids liked the small sizes, too. It was good for the time of day as it was more of a snack than a meal. Thanks for your comments.

    Everything looks great, love the pom pom decorations – very clever. The favor bags are adorable. My daughter is almost 12 now, but I loved doing all the party decorations when she was younger, enjoy!!!

      Thank you! I will be showing a little more about both the pom poms and the favor bags coming up…so stay tuned. Yes, I’m going to miss it when I can’t ‘go all out’ for parties anymore. At the same time, I kind of think the simple seems nice, too. Thanks for stopping by! Have a great night.
