Birthday
The Pink and Green Princess Party was a success!
Here's lots of pictures for you!
Ella's one request was a sign that said "Happy Birthday Princess Ella". She reminded me a couple times a day about it!
To welcome the royal guests...Ella's one request was a sign that said "Happy Birthday Princess Ella". She reminded me a couple times a day about it!
I like it when you can tell you're at the right house...over half the guests had never been to our house before.
Based on the castle on the invitation!
I purchased a 3 sided presentation board (already pink) at Hobby Lobby.
My husband drew out the castle shape on the backside, and then cut it out.
The flags are wooden skewers with green felt flags!
I used the same tutorials I used here!
No royal banquet is complete without flowers...tissue paper flowers fit into this "not so royal budget"! I used Martha's directions.
Every princess needs a sparkly slipper...template and directions found here!
Homemade green gingham napkins and pink hobnail plates that I found at a garage sale...8 for $1.00! With 3 girls in the house, I couldn't pass them up!
Homemade tablecloth and banners complete the festive look!
Another view!

Sugar rimmed glasses held the pink and green princess punch!
(A scoop of lime sherbet, a scoop of raspberry sherbet and some 7UP)
I used this pan to create the bottoms of the dresses.
(I bought mine at Hobby Lobby with a 40% off coupon)
Polly Pockets and Princess make up the top half of the girls
We played pin the crown on the princess. Again modeled after the princess on the invite.
Everything was felt so it stuck by itself, instead of needing pins or tape.
Bad pic...the background is pink with a white princess.
a treasure hunt...the were on the hunt for the queens treasure box. Inside was diamonds, necklaces and rings for everyone.
Queen Commands (Simon Says)
The Royal Freeze Dance Ball
And a Pinata.
To carry all the goodies home, each girl received her own canvas bag with her first initial monogrammed on it.
We also set up this castle tent we already had...the girls had fun pretending with it!
love it! Is Omaha close enough to borrow the stuff :)
I love how Soph got into the picture too :)
Maddi saw these pictures and when we got to the one with all the cakes, she screamed, "I LOVE THIS!!!"
Nothing like your target audience giving their approval! :)
Gorgeous!!!!! I love how the table looked. Good job, Mom!
you, woman, are amazing.
This is such a cute party!! And I really like the garland. It's different...perfect! :)

i used to have a tent just like that when i was younger
