Hi there! I'm so excited to share some the details of Asher's 4th birthday party decor! I had a lot of fun planning it and putting it all together, although I have to admit that it took me a while to come up with the direction for it. Asher doesn't have a favorite superhero or toy, which made pinning down more conventional ideas hard. In fact, I was at a total loss until the "A-mazing A" idea struck.
Remember these inspiration I started with from this post?
I stuck to it
pretty closely starting with a big, quirky "Welcome to Asher's A-mazing
A Party" display with twine and clothespins, full of fun "A" items; an
aardvark, alien, axe, artichoke, airplane, anchor, argyle socks,
astronaut, antlers, Arkansas, arithmetic, armadillo, ant, alphabet,
arrow, abacus, antelope, asteroid, atlas, alligator, acrobats, anvil,
and of course- the best one of all- Asher!
THE "A" WELCOME SIGN
THE ACTIVITIES
'PIN THE "A" ON THE A-LPHABET'
I've always loved typography so I will never turn down an opportunity to make giant, printed letters!
And...
"THE A-MAZING PAPER A-IRPLANE MAKING STATION"
Equipped with cardstock in black, orange, teal, and pink {couldn't forget the girls!}, chalk for decorating their paper, and- of course- dads to help the kids do the folding.
THE ACCESSORIES
THE TABLE SETTINGS
I wanted to keep the orange, teal, and black/white color theme consistent, so I made sure the plates and cups matched the balloons. The black and white paper straws might have been my favorite little accessory.
I put together these simple favor bags using brown lunch bags, orange and teal decorative paper, printed "A"s, and clothespins as fasteners. Inside were "A-pplejacks", "A-nimal crackers", and "A-lmond Joys".
And lastly, I just so happened to spot orange and teal thank you cards at the Dollar Store...
Photos of the big day and the birthday boy are coming next!
