I have a fun product to introduce you to today, from one of your favorite shopping outlets – Etsy of course! These Wall decals from evgieNev are a fabulous room decorating item that I had the opportunity to sample, but I wanted to show you how you could use it for party decor too. Using the “tree with monkeys” decal I was inspired to create a banana split bar perfect for a baby shower or kids birthday party. Backdrops for dessert tables are the hottest thing and this is an unexpected touch that makes a statement. Check out the details below….
Details of the party design and concepts:
-
Using the decal as the inspiration and focal point, I chose the color scheme to match the artwork: brown, green, and yellow.
-
Add a whimsical touch by “hanging a sign on the tree” that invites guests to make their own banana split. This one was created using a wooden piece from the craft store and covering with coordinating paper.
-
I always look around the house to find interesting vessels to serve food/drinks from. Here I used my tiny fish bowl vases to serve dry toppings from {chocolate sprinkles & heath bar sprinkles}. An apothecary jar holds bananas, and bottles that were purchased with bbq sauce inside are recycled to hold chocolate and caramel syrup.
-
Hanging drink monkeys make an adorable addition to the side of our sundae glasses.
-
Wrapping the can of whipped cream keeps the look unified and only takes seconds to do.
-
One of my favorite tips for serving ice cream is to pre-scoop balls and place in the freezer until ready to serve. These were served in a pedestal glass dish and stay frozen for quite a while. Add a ribbon flag to the ice cream to add some color for the display.
-
Chocolate dipped bananas make a nice addition to the table and offer an alternative to the banana splits {kids love these}.
There you have it – 7 tips for setting up an unforgettable banana split bar, thanks to the inspiration from evgieNev wall decals. I think the decals would make for a fantastic “photo booth” too! Of course you can also use the decals for children’s bedroom decor ; )

I love this idea! Banana splits were always my favourite way to eat ice cream as a child.
I looked on her site and loved the outer space one – I can imagine being inspired to do a fun “space” birthday party with that one. Or the “once upon a time” decal… that one inspires so many fairytale ideas!
