Bumble Bee Themed Party
Summer is right around the corner, and to celebrate a little bit early, we have some bright, inexpensive, and highly versatile inspiration.
Here are some great napkin ideas to illuminate any event and, as a bonus, free printables!
1. Embellish Party Favors with Paper Napkins
What you need:
- Container for favors - we used mini and small treat buckets
- Paper napkins - we used glamour gray

Cut a sliver of the napkin and add it to your party favors - we used the Black Grandeur Paper Dinner Napkins. Carry out the theme by incorporating the same napkin in each place setting. From there, tie a black ribbon around the favor to finish it. Adding a printable to your favors makes them look professional and beautiful.

Fold and attach paper napkins to your centerpieces. Tie a matching bow around the centerpiece and add a printable for that WOW factor.
Sunny Like Sunflowers
The flowers that fit perfectly into this theme and are real companions for bees are sunflowers! Their black and yellow colors go great with the black and yellow color of the bees and the decoration!
The wedding season has begun, and sunflowers have bloomed, so we would like to advise all newlyweds to choose sunflowers when decorating.
Sunflowers as a decoration provide a special touch to any environment, especially when they are packaged in professional arrangements made for special occasions.
Each back of the chair on the outside can receive one sunflower woven in off-white tulle, and more extensive arrangements can be placed along the hall as decoration.
People love sunflowers mainly because of their round, clear shape and bright color. They are a summer flower and are among the favorites of many celebrations. Incorporating sunflowers into your party decorations is a great idea. Its bright color will make the atmosphere playful and cheerful. It is a detail that will be remembered.
They are easily combined with other types of flowers, so they can fit in with any themed party. The essence is to be restrained and not exaggerate their number.
The best time for sunflower to become the main detail at your party is July, August, and September.
Sunny Sweet Table
The finish of your party can undoubtedly be cupcakes like bees or a cake in the shape of a bee, or you can decorate the cake with sunflowers and bees. The possibilities are numerous!
It is best to make a sweet table in the style of a buffet table. Whether it's a birthday party or some other party, that sunny floral piece will surely delight all the guests.
Decorate the yellow background with valuable bees, and on the sides, put balloons in the shape of bees and other black and yellow balloons.
The central part of the table is reserved for her highness, the cake! Around it, arrange cupcakes in the shape of bees and course, gingerbread! You can come up with other cakes with honey! Finally, of course, place vases with sunflowers on the table as an indispensable decoration. With black and yellow plates and napkins, it will be a beautiful table following your party theme and an ideal place for taking photos!
