I love to entertain and plan parties! This blog is a collection of photos and parties that I have hosted and decided to share with family and friends. Hopefully, you'll find something that inspires your next event or have a "new find" or party idea you would like to share.

Carnival Party

When my 5 year old decided he wanted a Carnival Party the month
before his 6th birthday, I scrambled to put it together.  
Google and marthastewart.com offered lots of great ideas.

Carnival Decorations!



Carnival Paper Products were purchased from Oriental Trading.
Clown cupcake picks are by Meri Meri.


The Birthday Boy is proud to be 6!
Party Patrons were greeted with popcorn & cotton candy!





Carnival Treats: Chocolate dipped Rice Crispy Treats
with Sprinkles, Candied Apples & #6 Sugar Cookies


Face Painting!


The Spooky Birthday Boy!



The Carnival Games consisted of Ball Toss Bonanza
(Ping Pong Balls into cups), Clothespin Drop,
Spray Away (Water gun to shoot down golf balls),
and Duck Fishing.
Tickets were awarded and later turned in for prizes. 

  

The Prize Selection was sorted by the number of tickets you won!




Cute Puppies, Crazy Clowns, Spooky Ghosts
& even Batman was at this Carnival!





Gumball Guessing Game & The Winner



Cake, Ice Cream and Juice Boxes awaited the ravished Carnival Revelers!



Party Favors were swirly lollipops & gumball banks from Oriental Trading.


Leaving birthday wishes in chalk!



Lots of  Loot & Smiling Faces!
