Monster Themed Decoration

For a theme with lots of color that kids are certain to love, have a Monster Birthday Party. This theme offers you an opportunity to work some major creativity into your decorations with limitless options for delightful looks.  Bright, playful colors will make your party light hearted and sweet, letting kids enjoy the zaniness of monster creations.  You can get crazy with play dough and make little monsters to center each table in funny poses, even have them on your buffet table to keep everyone entertained. Instead of making a blended theme with the same covers on each table, bring your party a unique and bold look with wild patterns and colors that are different for each table. Have plenty of colorful balloons in the room with paper monster eye and eyes glued on them!

Incorporate surprise elements into your venue to keep the guests looking for additional fun touches, monsters underneath tables, monsters on the ceiling, on shelves, etc.  Don’t be afraid of overdoing the decorations, you can’t have too many monsters with this fun theme.  Draw monsters on balloon bouquets, hang monster photos on the wall, have cute little monster storybooks laid out to read.

Make monster sandwiches by cutting meat and cheese triangles at one end (to look like teeth) and cut the crusts off the bread, then top with two olives for eyeballs.  Make monster fruit kabobs, by topping the stick with a googly eye!  An upside down halved green pepper with a couple long slices for legs and placed in chip dip makes a neat monster after you add googly eyes of course.  Add fake teeth to the center of donuts and upside down chocolate chips for eyes and you have monstrous treats that any kid can love. For your monster cake, create a cupcake monster, letting every kid have a piece of a fun and crazy creation.

You can bring this birthday party a blast of fun with all kinds of green and brown color and Ninja Turtle accessories that will stand out fantastically.  Turn a balloon bouquet into a Ninja Turtle crowd by drawing masks on them or tying scarves on them, then you can use them as centerpieces or as a decoration anywhere in your venue area. Take advantage of your child’s collection of Ninja Turtle toys and set-up fun action scenes on tables for everyone to check out. If you have round, pop-up tunnels, you can decorate those to look like the sewer tunnels, giving a 3-D decoration that kids could actually play with.

The most important food to have at a Ninja Turtle party is definitely pizza.  You can personalize your pizza by making it at home, or you can make it a part of kids’ activity to make their own pizza with all the ingredients prepared so that all they need to really do is add all their favorite toppings.  Of course, another option is to order out, either way, the kids are sure to love it! Along with you wonderful pizza entree, you can make all kinds of fun treats that will go nicely with the theme.  Place fun jars of a variety of green candies, like gummy bears, gumballs, laffy taffy out and then put construction paper masks on them to look like your child’s favorite classic characters.  Name your foods after Ninja Turtle favorite phrases for a fun twist and place labels out so everyone knows what is available. You could even make ooze with green jello in clear dixie cups! For your Ninja Turtle celebration cake, a large cake can be decorated to look like your child’s very favorite one, or you can have the whole gang together in style.

To keep your guests happy and involved you can start your party out by having everyone guess how many candies – gumballs you have in a jar and then at the end of the party whoever guessed closest gets a prize! One fun party activity would be giving everyone a sheet of stickers when they first come and having them get rid of all of them by putting them on other guests secretly and whoever gets rid of all their stickers first wins. Another fun idea would be to set up a race for the kids to use chopsticks to move a marble from one bowl to another as fast as they can.

Breakfast at Tiffany's Birthday Party

by Party to be Festas

If you are searching for a way to really treat yourself like a princess, a Tiffany themed party is definitely a fantastic option. Tiffany blue is an extremely versatile color that can easily be used to celebrate your birthday elegantly. Combining it with silver creates a real royal effect, bringing glamour in that is sure to be appreciated. Invitations for this type of party should exude magnificence.  Using a frilly font, and elegant artwork with some sort of crown or jewelry such as pearls creates a wonderful way to introduce the theme. You could wrap the invitation with a nice white ribbon for a nice touch. Background can be the lovely Tiffany Blue, or if you are going for breakfast at Tiffany’s theme, you could incorporate some black in there. Perhaps some black and tiffany blue damask design.

Tiffany Party Decoration

The decoration options for a Tiffany Birthday Party are practically endless, and many are DIY and wallet friendly, allowing you to spoil yourself on a budget! One of the latest trends that brings an amazing and full look to an event area is tying balloons to ribbons and hanging the ribbon from the ceiling, letting the balloon drape downward. Using a lot of balloons, you can create a covered and cozy atmosphere, especially utilizing a blend of colors from the Tiffany blue (or aqua) to silver, black, and white. This theme is also a great time to use plenty of lovely faux pearls and diamonds!

For the guest tables and snack/treat areas you can give a smooth and sophisticated look by using blue tablecloths as a base for all of the accent pieces you want to add. Using vintage styled dishware really gives a royal effect, the china tea sets that have ornate detailing even. A lovely way to add to an elegant feel, would be through the flower arrangement. You can easily add rhinestones to any vase, giving an expensive and flashy look. Food at a Tiffany party should be one-of-a-kind. Creating tea party finger-foods that make guests feel royal, like cucumber sandwiches, pickle wraps, and fruit and veggie spreads.  Treats should be decadent and colored to go with the theme, creating a complete style.  Using aqua frosting on brownie-balls would be fantastic, and if you stick them on sparkly sticks, it would really add a touch of glitz. The true centerpiece munchie at a Tiffany birthday party should be the cake.  Using a tiered option, three-layers would make a huge statement and give you plenty of space to add tons of detailing with frosting and even adding touches like jewels. You could even top the cake with a tiara or pearls.

Dr Seuss Inspired Food Ideas

When it comes to foods, this is a party where you can get really creative, break out that chef-side and personalize concoctions that kids will love.  Layered jello cups offer a striped look, red jello and white jello, topped with a dollop of cool whip of course! Turn cheese sticks that are still wrapped into Cat in the Hat with a red and a black marker.  You can put the kitty face on the bottom with the bow-tie and then stripes all the way up for the hat. Cotton candy on sticks will give that crazy Thing One and Thing Two hairstyle that everyone will enjoy eating right up. For your cake, create a layered delight that is off-center, giving a lop-sided look and detail with Thing One and Thing Two, or Cat in the Hat even.

Pirate Party Decorations

A Pirate Theme can be great with either an outdoor or indoor venue area, using natural elements like sticks and wood, you can have a rustic style that will charm. For colors a good mix would be blue and black or red and black, allowing an accent that is bold and fun. Using barrels you can make seats for your little pirates to sit at, if you have tall tables the whole barrel or just half for smaller tables. Line your guest tables with striped cloths for a pirate effect. This would be a great theme for hanging up old maps, laying out atlas’ that you have available and spreading out lots of flags. If you have some vintage storage chests, you can fill them up with costume jewelry and fake golden coins to create treasures fit for a pirate.

There are a lot of different pirate treats that you can make for your guests to enjoy.  Rice krispy treats, cake pops and mini-cupcakes all offer a perfect size for placing little sticks in with ship flags on them to blend your food nicely with the theme.  Grilled chicken legs make a messy and fun pirate food that is also a good filler. Hot dogs, pizza and even meatloaf can also make tasty foods.  You can make a special jewel punch as a fun beverage at the party too. The night before your event just freeze up some different colors of ice cubes to place in your punch bowl and voila, a drinkable treasure trove!

Pirate Party Games

No Pirate Party would be complete without a plank walk- you can set-up a two by four wooden board for children to walk across and have them leap into a pile of blue pillows (water).  You can even make it more challenging by blindfolding the victims so it is tougher to stay on the board.  Another fun pirate adventure is the treasure hunt! Make a map for the children to decipher and see which pirate can get to the X (have a small chest will little pirate gifts waiting) first!
