It is birthday time for a special 10 year old friend of mine. And like any good party there will be decorations and party favors, hand crafted by the two of us. Party hats for the guests with streaming colorful ribbons.A special banner featuring the birthday girl’s name. With a few hours, a good supply of cardstock, tape, and glitter glue, crafty girls like us will have plenty to do…What girl won’t feel like a party princess with one of these hats?Did I mention lately how much I love banners…and birthdays?How do you decorate for birthdays? I personally am a streamer girl…
I just had a princess training camp here for my 4 y/o and those hats would have been perfect. They did get to decorate their own tiaras. And they went on a princess treasure hunt. I like having tons of balloons around for parties.
GREAT hats! LOVE them because they remind me of tussie-mussies. ~smile~ I have help from the oldest boys now, but we always plaster the downstairs with twisted streamers. I used to make a paper crown each birthday, but now I have a crocheted boy crown and girlie crown I pull out. (The nights before were getting later and later~LOL!) We blow up lots of balloons for the floor and also make a front door sign and signs on their chair and placemat at the table. We also usually do a cheap tablecloth and some kind of matching paperware from the Dollar Store, and the birthday child picks what kind of cake they want. What this means is that a cat cake would be an ugly, homemade cake with a toy cat on it~LOL! (((((HUGS))))) sandi~no Fashionista, but I AM a wannabe!!!!
Love the hats. I am horrible about decorating. Just hate to go through all the effort when it is only up for a little while. But my kids love to decorate. The works.
I love your b-day decorations! I decorate with balloons, confetti and banners!

ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Karissa! I love how your banner turned out. That's my favorite way to decorate for birthdays.
