Selected as Party of the Day on July 5th!
Pirates and Mermaids (6th & 3rd Birthdays)
ByParty Recap
My son and daughter were born 8 days apart...in different years. This proves to be a challenge when planning birthday parties. I've resorted to having their parties at the same time. This year we did a pirate and mermaid themed party.
Party Highlights
-
Activities / Games
Snowcone truck, water slide, pinata stuffed with water guns, and a snowball fight
-
Party Favors
Little Mermaid Bubbles and Shell Bracelets for the girls. And a canvas pirate bag filled with a sword, pirate teeth, necklaces, ring pop, a telescope and golden coins for the boys.

Hi Katherine! They're both from cwdkids.com. I think the mermaid one was also carried last year at Nordstrom, too.

How did you send out invitations for the joint party? I'm thinking of doing the same theme this summer and unsure how to combine the invitation for both children! Thank you
Brittany H wrote:
Hi Brandi, I did two separate invitations. She is younger, and not in school yet, so she had a small guest list. He is in school, so his entire class was invited. We have done a dual party before, and I just combined both names/ages on the same invite.

Hi! How did you make this background?? I'm trying to make it for my sorority bid day! Did you staple the paper onto a board or is it just taped on the wall?
Brittany H wrote:
Hi Carly, I used painters tape on the backside, so it wouldn't show, and also wouldn't damage the wall paint.
Carly S wrote:
hi brittany! okay and you just individually placed each piece of paper on it?

Hello I was wondering what were the size of the scales you used for the backdrop and about how many? This would be cardstock correct?
Brittany H wrote:
Hi Monica! It's just 12 x 12 sheets of card stock from the scrapbook section of hobby lobby. I used a bowl as my template to make them round on one end.
