LO is only 7 months old but I'm insane and already starting to think about this. I have a theme in mind, but it's not set in stone. What was your LO's first birthday theme??
-
@lawbee11: You aren't insane! I think I started pinning ideas she was 12 weeks old. I changed the theme but still.
Twinkle Twinkle Little Star! Pretty sure my house is going to be covered in glitter for weeks after!
-
DS was "colors" - not really a theme but I wanted to use all the colors!
DD's was Snowmen - Winter ONEderland
-
Ha-- I'm not even sure if we are going to HAVE a first birthday party! I mean, I guess we will, but our families are far and we don't have room to put people up overnight, and we don't have that much room to host a party... So I don't know. If we do, I'll wait and see what she actually likes this summer. I feel like so much will change between now and then.
-
@Smurfette: LOL ok I feel better now
-
@Mamaof2: That totally reminds me of the movie That Thing You Do-- the Oh-nee-ders? (The Wonders/ One-ders)
-
DS's was farm themed. I had a cake made with Little People farm stuff on it and he got the barn as a present.
-
@lawbee11: and I might already know what I want the 2nd bday theme to be......issues!
-
Rainbows
-
Very Hungry Caterpillar.
-
@Mamaof2: Winter ONEderland is really cute...unfortunately LO's birthday is in August and we live in Texas so it'll be the opposite of wintry.
@Smurfette: Spill it!
-
@looch: If we had a boy I would totally do Very Hungry Caterpillar! Love that theme.
-
@lawbee11: Sprinkles! Just bright colors, balloons, streamers, and an ice cream bar!
-
@Smurfette: Super cute!!
-
Bunting.
-
I did cupcake/sweet shop theme.
-
DS birthday is oct 3 2012 and my niece's birthday is oct 4 2011 so they are almost a year apart in age so we had had a thing "turning" one and thing "turning" two party. Very dr. Seuss and colorful.
-
I hadn't thought about it, but while grocery shopping the other day, there was a HUGE bin of 1st birthday banners with corresponding party cups, plates, napkins, and invitations for $0.97 each! So that's how DS's 1st birthday them came to be.
It's Safari/jungle theme.
-
I'm totally thinking about this already.
Pretty sure I'm going with Alice in One-derland...but I would LOVE to do a cupcake party, because I'm a little baked-goods obsessed. -
We did rainbow theme as she was "the rainbow after the storm" because she was born during Hurricane Sandy. I have no idea what 2 will be though...
-
Hawaii - Everyone was told to wear Hawaiian shirts... (which almost everyone owned), had lots of luau stuff (party city has a huge section) and had Hawaiian food (L&L party trays are cheap!). I got plastic lais for cheap on the Internets and the thank you gift were little Hawaiian duckys.
-
I don't think we had a theme as I didn't do a lot of decorating. But we ended up doing colors (blue, green, white) since I hung up some leftover paper lanterns that didn't get hung up in his room.
-
For our august babe we are having a watermelon theme
pinks and greens.
-
@lawbee11: BTW, what are you thinking?
-
I've seen TONS of cute sprinkle ideas
Sprinkles and sparkles!Our theme is just colors. Pink and aqua. I have a shitton of balloons, too
-
@Smurfette: I'm thinking strawberries. Pink/red/green colors. I like this invite a lot:
-
@lawbee11: Super cute!!
-
@lawbee11: strawberries is an adorable theme.
I am just picking colors - bright springy yellow, blue and greens I think (April, boy).
-
It was shabby chic (if that's a theme) - lots of pink, ivory, and lace.
@lawbee11: so cute!
-
DD: the UP! theme
DS: no real theme, just a color scheme - two shades of blue and orange.
-
@Smurfette: @cmomma17: @yerpie110: Thanks
We called her our little strawberry while I was pregnant and I also bought this dress for her in 12m while I was pregnant so I'd love if she wore it at the party (assuming it fits)!
-
@lawbee11: That is adorable. I will be on the look out for strawberry things now!
-
@Smurfette: Yes!!
-
Ummm.... I've had LO's party planned since the second I found out she was a girl.
Love the strawberry theme!
-
No theme, just colors....pink, yellow, peach, and orange! I made paper rosettes like these:

And that was the decoration! I put it over the fireplace with a montage of LO pictures.
-
Vintage carnival.
-
I've been thinking about DS's party for the last month, he's now 6 months. I'm hoping to do a sports theme!
-
carousel.
-
I've been tossing ideas around but the current thought is ladybug themed. I call her a long list of 'bug' related thing (bugaboo, buggise, junebug etc). The only problem is, I hate the color combo of red and black hahaha. Back to the drawing board I suppose.
@lawbee11: I loveeee those invites and the dress.
