The Magic Faraway Tree evokes a little magic, a little mystery and a lot of imagination. This classic children's book by Enid Blyton was the perfect source of inspiration for our very own Anthea Nauta's baby shower. Wanting to put a sophisticated spin on a Blyton classic, Anthea utilised a natural palette with red hues. The Magic Faraway series describes enchanting nights bustling with night markets, magical foods and unbelievable lands, and these aspects were drawn upon when creating the food bar and drink station. That forest feel was created by stringing up fairylights entwined with garlands comprised of Australian natives. All in all, it was a truly magical evening celebrating the impending birth of a truly magical baby.
