Ysia's glam rock party



Last Saturday (august 7, 2010) we celebrated Ysia's 3rd birthday. Since she love the look of miley Cyrus and we (her aunts and her mom) love avril lavigne's look, we decided to come up with a GLAM ROCK birthday party for her.

It took us two months to plan the entire party, with a limited budget and a little bit of creativity everything went well... ( I guess LOL!)

Here's how we did it:

Invitation - It took me 3 days to conceptualize the invitation and 1 day to make the layout.
My sister and I wanted a cute and somehow unique invitation for her, with her photo
on it of course!. And so, Concert ticket invitation became the choice.

Loot Bags- Since hindi pa masyadong rampant ang glam rock party for kids na ginamit,
it's been very difficult for us to look for the right one that will match with our
theme. Until, I stumble with this zebra print bag and decided to use it instead as
party bag for kids.

To make it more attractive I added some Japanese paper on it in a color of pink and
purple. Pink for the girls while the purple is for the boys. I also used stickers on it as
thank you note instead of gift tag.

Inside the bag we put different items such as:

For the girls: For the boys:

Mini plastic microphone Mini plastic guitar (battery operated)
bubble in a shape of a guitar bubble in shape of a guitar
colorful garter headbands striking colored yoyo
tattoo sticker tattoo sticker
plastic balloon plastic balloon
chocolates and candies chocolates and candies

Decor - We purchased fabrics for the table cloth (since alam namin na mahihirapan kaming
mag hanap ng table cloth in the theme that we want) We were able to buy zebra print
fabric, cloth with detailed snake skin design in deep purple and fuchsia geena cloth.

All fabric is Php 20 per yard.

And we ask someone to sewn it for us.

As for the tables and chairs, we just rented it from MTM party needs located in Silang
Cavite.

Tarp - I made all the layout, from the poster type tarp that we hang outside the venue to
welcome the guest up to the backdrop.

Balloons - I'm glad we were able to find some metallic star Mylar balloons that I used as
centerpiece. We also purchased 3 packs of metallic balloons in size 12 in three different
colors such as pink, purple and white.

Cake and cupcakes - Ordered from Sweet Solution Bakeshop. My sister gave them a photo of the
cake that we wanted and we're so happy with the result! they were able
to pull it off!

As for the taste, since we ordered chocolate cake it does taste good.
But the cupcakes taste like your typical chocolate cupcake.

Face Painting - From Folsom Arts, we had a great time on this. It's worth the price.

Magician - Hindi ko alam kung san sya nakuha ng sister ko, but he did a really nice job!
Kids and adults are all pleased ;)
