The Tent Event

For years, I’ve been toying with the idea of a circus-themed Purim seudah. With all the fun and action in abundance, it would certainly capture the spirit of the day. However, after much research on circus tent centerpieces, I didn’t have much to show for it. Thankfully, the Stamp Studio was able to carry out my vision with the creation of the adorable tents featured here.
Boldly Black
I used black napkins, cutlery, and stemware to complement the circus tents, placemats, straws, seating cards, and lollipops (available from the Stamp Studio).
Fun and Feathery
The Stamp Studio created these light and feathery seating cards, again highlighting the black and white contrast. To make them yourself, cut cardstock to size and attach to a soft feather with a wax stamp.
I love these classy water bottles with the black masks taped on! (Also created by the Stamp Studio.)
Stamp Studio also tied black “Happy Purim” ribbons onto the lollipops for an added touch.
Soft Touches of Color
The soft lavender velvet tablecloth and beautiful flowers kept the table looking classy, alongside the fun look.
