We had a birthday this weekend! Our youngest turned two. Her nickname around here is Monster, so I thought a fun monster party would be great. And it was fun to plan. I kinda like "out of the box" party ideas. I looked through Pinterest for party ideas, but didn't find much, and nothing I wanted to do for her party. I got the invitations from a seller on easy.com, but I don't have that info.
The banner letters, I got from this awesome blog. I've used then before to create a Thanksgiving banner, and they are such a great size, and so fun.
I did find a lot of great monster stuff at Oriental Trading Company, they had "Valentine" monster stuff on sale and the colors were perfect, because I wanted girlie colors, and was having a hard time finding it. I forgot to take more decoration pictures, but you can still find the things here, and here. The goody bags were bought from Oriental Trading as well, but I couldn't find them there tonight. They were filled with fun, not scary, monster goodies- balls, pop-ups, small monster bath ducks, mini monster beach balls, goofy build a monster stickers, and monster tattoos (but I couldn't find them tonight either).
Solomon helped me decorate the cupcakes. I just picked up the eye candies at Michael's, and we added fun faces.
Our little monster had a great time at her party. She was the center of attention and loved it so much. Happy birthday Monster!
