Circus or Carnival Party Printable Premium Set | Real Parties

Thank you to Melissa who provided me photos of her twin's 1st birthday party, which took place back in July. She used the Circus or Carnival Party Printable Premium Set, which is now available in my shop. It's always exciting to see how customers use my party designs throughout their party. She did a wonderful job!

Here is what Melissa shared:

I am so pleased with how every thing turned out! We used vanilla cupcakes with white frosting and red polka dots. The twins each had vanilla smash cakes with the #1 in red on them. We purchased the cupcakes, cupcake tower and smash cakes from All Things Cake, in Tulsa, Oklahoma. They gave us 2 free smash cakes and said I would be double-charged the rest of my life, haha!

Since we were having a circus party of mostly adults, with a few cousins and close friends' children, I needed something to entertain the adults, and about 10 kids. We rented a dunk tank from Joyful Jumps. This was a huge hit, since the adults got to dunk the kids.

My twins were born 3 months early. When they came home from the hospital, we kept them in a bubble through flu and rsv season, so this party was also their coming out party. They were definitely the center of attention.

For party favors, we gave gold fish in a bag soap. These can be purchased from Etsy or eBay. I bought the fish from eBay, which came with instructions and I bought everything else from Hobby Lobby. The kids loved them and a few friends told me their kids were determined to get the fish out of the soap that night at bath time.

I knew this day would be special to me and I had no idea what theme to choose for a boy and a girl. I looked through invites for weeks, and then I came across your designs and everything else just fell into place. I hope any of these details will help others.

Thank you Melissa!

While everyone else has been posting about this wonderfully creative sewing theme party, I have been a little late in the game. I think I had slight food poisoning yesterday, so I didn't have the strength to post this.

Remember when I did the posting on the invitation spools I designed for this party? Christine at Pure Joy Events recently gave an update on her daughter's recent "Sew Seven" birthday party. Photos of the party were beautifully captured by Rebecca Watkins Photography. I urge you to go check it out, you won't be disappointed!

UPDATE! - Amy Atlas just featured this party on her blog today!

Parisian-Themed Birthday Party {Ooh! La! La!} | Real Parties

Bonjour! I'm so excited to show you photos of a Parisian-themed birthday party that Sara did for her daughter last month. Sara came to me and ordered the "Paris Chalkboard Design" invitations and other coordinated printed designs such as cupcake toppers, a welcome sign, bunting banner, favor tags and return address labels. Not only did she do a wonderful job, but she was such a pleasure to work with!

This chic party was taken place in Sara's beautiful home, which was filled with friends and family. Notice how all of the small details were tied in nicely to fit the theme of the party!
