This sweet daisy graduation party theme has a shabby chic flair. I created some years ago when my daughter graduated high school. I used a mix of gingham and floral paper, fabrics, and ribbons to create centerpieces, a ribbon garland, and other party accents. Galvanized pots filled with daisies looked beautiful on the tables for this special day!

Anchored the party set up with a small suitcase and globe. A few coats of paint to the suitcase with grad cap cupcake toppers and you are on your way to a travel graduation party theme!

Buy stock bottles to use for these fancy-looking drinks and keep it simple with light pastel decorations while serving bright-colored snacks like fruit kabobs.
