Party Recap
This year we decided to turn our backyard into a Glitzy Mermaid Lagoon. My daughter became obsessing over Mermaids ever since we got back from St. Johns last year. She brought a Mermaid on the Island and ever since we’ve been watching Mermaid Sci-Fi and Theories on the Web and Internet. Lol I just knew she wanted extreme full around fun! And not just water balloons or water guns for the “Princess Tomboy” but a water slip n slide for her and her friends to enjoy. It was a great idea nonetheless; the kids weren't the only ones that enjoyed it! Lol We have a blast at every single one of her parties but this one topped it by far. The kids enjoyed lots of yummy food, water slip and slide for hours! We also had a “Make Your Own Sushi Candy” station, a Mermaid Drinking Station, Mermaid Bubbles Refill Station, Water Balloon Fight, a Glitzy Mermaid Dessert Table with custom made Under the Sea Jellies, Double Dipped Marshmallows, Seahorse pops, Mermaid Cookies and Starfish, and Seashell Cupcakes. Each Mermaid took home a Souvenir Fish of their choice, A Glam Mermaid Tail with their choice of color, Matching hair bow, and a a Mermaid Parasol.

Beautiful job. :D Where on earth did you find that PERFECT "sequin" fabric? It is stunning, and I'd love to know your source! Thanks!

Hi Wendy, I got the sequin fabric from Fabric Empire, bought about 10 yards of it and cut it myself to use for the backdrop and tablecloth. Check them out they have a great selection. www.fabricempire.com Thank you,

well it looks as though lots of mermaid love went into Syuri' s Birthday party. Especially, loved the Chandler and silver accents. Mermaids tails were a creative colourful touch and the mermaid cookies were really cute. Did you make those or order them some place?
