1st Birthday Party on a Budget!

Looking for a 1st Birthday Party on a Budget? Here’s the plan (for a girl)…

    1st Birthday Party Invitation:
    First Birthday Poem -
    (name) will soon be one,
    and you’re invited to join the fun!
    On (date) at the hour of three,
    (address) is the place to be!
    We’ll make a bonnet,
    with frills upon it,
    and have a tea party,
    so don’t be tardy!

    Print & tie the invitation to a miniature straw hat (sold in the doll section of craft stores) & hand deliver.

    The guests were mostly adults and older children. As the invitation said, we made her a bonnet with frills upon it…gluing buttons, bows, curling ribbons and pom poms to the hat. At the end of the party, my daughter had a great hat to use for dress-up in the years to come.

    Tea Party food was just right…finger sandwiches, petit fours for the cake, etc.

    Total Cost: Less than $50 for 15 guests!
