Since we've had such success with our holiday printables, we thought we'd give away a collection of FREE blue and green birthday printables designed by the talented Katie from Green Apple Paperie. It's everything you'd need to throw your special boy a fabulous party.

This collection includes: invitations, cupcake toppers/party circles, cupcake wrappers, favor tags, water bottle labels, flat cards, tented cards, candy bar wrappers, and an adorable "Happy Birthday" banner.

For Laura B’s Vintage Circus Birthday Party, she didn't want to be that parent that sent each child home with a live goldfish, so she made goldfish in a bag party favor soap instead!

Of course I had to ask Laura if she'd put together a tutorial for us on how she made them, and she so kindly said yes!  So here it is...

I have mermaids on the brain!

As soon as I saw the photos from Laura B's Vintage Circus Birthday Party, I needed to know more, in fact I needed to know everything!

Who doesn't love the book, A Very Hungry Caterpillar? Well it shows in these incredible Very Hungry Caterpillar parties we've seen on our main site. Here are some of my favorite details from each party...

I'm really into party wreaths, so when I saw this homemade wreath Amy C made for her Milla Turns 3 in a Rainbow of Ribbons Party, I had to ask her if she'd do a tutorial for us. Thank you, Amy, for agreeing, and take it away...

I love the idea of a wreath hanging on the front door to greet party guests at any soiree. They are such a great way to set a tone for the party as people arrive. I have seen a few different and fun styles of wreaths around but when my daughters 3rd birthday party theme was decided on - 'Rainbow of Ribbons' - I knew I had to put something together so came up with a ribbon wreath.

How cool are these cardboard playhouses from Way Basics, and how great would they look at a your kid's next party?

Throwing a tea party, add a play cottage...

Here's something we've been seeing on our main site for a while: whirly pops!

I'm not saying the moms at your parties will be happy with you serving their kids these gigantic sticky, sugary treats, but they do look great on a dessert table, work well as party favors, and are just so darn pretty. (Click on the photos to see what parties they came from.)

First I showed off the girl dinosaur parties. Now, I'm showing off these cool boy dinosaur parties we've seen on our main site!

Just in case you're snowed in watching Sesame Street with your kids, I thought I'd show off these great Elmo parties we've seen on our site. You can't go wrong with Elmo. Boy... girl... works for both, and there are so many ways to make it your own! Here are some interesting ideas...
