Birthday parties are one of my favorite things to plan!!! I think that I get more excited about them than my daughters. This party was a gymnastics themed party held at a facility where the girls could take a gymnastics class. I created a backdrop using a plastic table cloth taped to the wall. Streamers & balloons with drop stars gave it the perfect touch. I created the pennant banners with triangle shaped cardstock, ribbon and large letter stickers
Party favors included medals and water bottles. I purchased both at The Dollar Tree. The medals had red, white, & blue ribbons, which I switched out for the theme colors. I used triangle shaped paper and glued on a printed gymnastics pose, stars and ribbon for the water bottle tags.
On the tables, I created these simple centerpieces. I folded a 12×12 piece of scrapbook paper to create a 5 sided box and covered a styrofoam cube. I downloaded from the internet pictures of gymnastics poses and attached them to cardstock and skewers. A few scattered stars and medal candy for the finishing touches.
Cupcakes adorned with trophies I purchased at The Dollar Tree turned out so cute! I topped the trophies with large marshmellows, gel & sixlets. They were almost too cute to eat!
The decorations were simple but very festive. The girls had a great time. I can’t wait for the next birthday party to plan!
Happy birthday!
