Candy Shop Theme Birthday Party

So my daughter turned the BIG 7!!! We love doing parties, coming up with ideas, and having all of her friends over for a grand ole' time. This year we went with a candy shop theme. I am not big on letting my kids indulge in a lot of sweets....so this was going to be something fab for them. I told them that they could have as much candy as their little hearts desired! The party was super budget friendly....most of everything was in my craftroom. Okay....here are the pics

This was her invitation. Very simple yet theme related! They were loved by her guests and whats even better everything I needed for the invite was in my craftroom. Not a single dime was spent to make these.

Minnie Mouse Birthday Party

Hello friends!!!!! Soooooo my daughter turned 4 on the 27th of August! She had a Minnie Mouse theme birthday party....and boy it was a blast!! Here are some pics.

These were her invites! I made them using Publisher and printed them at WalMart! Super easy and budget friendly!

I made her tutu and her shirt! Go me (this is actually the third tutu I have made but the first time making a shirt. I just used a shirt she already had and I already had some of the tulle and I purchased the rest for about $3 from someone selling their stash! Lol I WILL always find a way to save.

The setup! (her fav color is blue) The banner was made with my cricut mini and the adjustable marker holder. I tied it together with some sparkly tulle. I do now own any type of Disney cartridge. I made the everything using mostly basic shapes.

The curtains are just plastic table cloths.... 97 cents at Walmart! They are also cut in half!

Minnie and Mickey ears for the kids to wear and it was part of their party favor!

The plate took the place of a guestbook....her guests signed it as they left the party! I used vinyl for the Minnie, bow, name, and number. The guests signed the plate using a ceramic marker.

Originally the adults were going to play a "guess how many gumballs game" but we never got around to it! Ooops!!!! I made this so she would have something to keep after the party!
