My daughter will have fun and feel celebrated, and the rest doesn't matter. If you like to decorate, awesome. If not, forget about it and don't feel bad. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/minimalno-decorations-for-party#post-2067565 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 21:25:56 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 2067565@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's totally fine to skip decorations - people may not even notice because the place is colorful and kid's parties are all about the kids running around having fun. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/minimalno-decorations-for-party#post-2067541 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 21:20:40 +0000 Corduroy 2067541@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're toying with skipping decorations for LOs birthday next weekend. Maybe a tablecloth and balloons (to play with) but I haven't even gotten that far in the planning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/minimalno-decorations-for-party#post-2067520 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 21:14:00 +0000 Mrs. Bee 2067520@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Skipping is totally fine.</p> <p>for a super cheap big impact idea though, i bought balloons from the dollar store, blew them up myself, and strung a thread through them to create a garland. Hung three rows from the ceiling. So festive and cost me $3! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/minimalno-decorations-for-party#post-2067518 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 21:11:57 +0000 wonderstruck 2067518@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Totally fine! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/minimalno-decorations-for-party#post-2067505 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 21:08:11 +0000 Mommy Finger 2067505@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>To me, there are much more important things to worry about when throwing a party and that's usually the food. Decorations are pretty much at the bottom of my list. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/minimalno-decorations-for-party#post-2067413 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 20:15:50 +0000 petunia354 2067413@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Totally fine! I think most parties are way overdone these days anyway.... My parents never did half of the decorating that people do now and I always loved my parties :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/minimalno-decorations-for-party#post-2067339 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 19:34:43 +0000 chopsuey 2067339@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think skipping is fine! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/minimalno-decorations-for-party#post-2067336 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 19:32:12 +0000 Mrs. Rabbit 2067336@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think the most I did for my daughter's first birthday was get a pink tablecloth and some streamers that I hung up. Someone brought her a balloon...and that's about it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/minimalno-decorations-for-party#post-2067330 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 19:28:12 +0000 Mrs. Lion 2067330@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought 2 bags of balloons and blew them up myself (no helium) and hung a happy birthday sign from target above his high chair. I am low maintenence :) most people I know in real life do the same. No pinterest parties over here. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/minimalno-decorations-for-party#post-2067328 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 19:27:08 +0000 woodentulip 2067328@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am going to maaaaybe have like 6 balloons for my LOs birthday next month because of exactly that--the place is plenty decorated as it is. Done, done, done! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/minimalno-decorations-for-party#post-2067326 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 19:25:43 +0000 Bao 2067326@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't really pick a theme for LO's first birthday party so I was playing around with the idea of just skipping decorations altogether. It would save me a lot of money and the place we are having it is plenty colorful as it is. Would that be weird/mean to just skip the decorations? </p>
