Cinderella, a film inspired by the classic Disney tale, is back in theaters. My daughter and I saw it…and loved it. It had me (a thirty-two-year-old-woman) dreaming of fairy tales and magic, believing in the power of kindness, and yes, wishing my feet fit into those stunning glass slippers!
The movie was so much more than just a charming prince to the rescue, fabulous…
Party Ideas Inspired By Disney's Cinderella

Pack a lunch fit for a princess
If I packed this lunch for my daughter throughout the school week, I bet she would smile while chewing, and her lunch box would come home empty. Not only did Another Lunch make healthy snacks for a princess, but they made them absolutely adorable, too.

Hang a calligraphy art print
One of my favorite lines from the Cinderella movie is, "Have courage and be kind." This print by Hello Tosha is a beautiful focal point for a party, and a lovely daily reminder for us all.

Bake adorable cookies
Make button cookies, tied with a string, that even Gus-Gus would like. Additional dreamy Cinderella party details at Hostess with the Mostess.

If you give a princess a cookie, she'll ask for some milk
For an extra yummy treat, serve a glass of milk with the cookies. Jazz up the milk glass with a silhouette of Cinderella, and add a straw wand like Dear Lillie did. You will want to see more of this party because it's gorgeous and she did it for under $50.

Make a DIY lace crown
No princess party or outfit is complete without a crown. Make these DIY vintage lace crowns like The Girl Inspired did for her princess in training.

Wear a glass slipper
If the shoe doesn’t fit on your feet, wear it on a sweater. Lauren Conrad has women all over feeling like princesses with glass slippers on their chests. Shop more of the LC Kohl’s Cinderella collection. To complete the look, leave a little shimmer on someone's lips with MAC Cinderella lip glass.

Create a Bippity Boppity Boutique
For a day of pampering, treat all the little ladies in your life to nails, hair, and dress-up time at a Bippity Boppity Boutique. Let them be a pretty princess for a day, and remind them to be a kind princess for a lifetime. More terrific party details at Hostess with the Mostess.

Think outside the crown and ball gown
For the ultimate party, celebrate Cinderella and her life before the ball. Kids will never love laundry, sewing, and cake decorating as much as the kids did at this Cinderella party, designed by Karen Ayars. What a beautiful and fun party! Now if I could only get the kids to help with laundry for real.
