Under the Sea Bday Party

It started with a submarine invitation that I designed on my Silhouette. 

I love how it turned out.

I was lucky to be able to use the waves from the VBS program that I posted about earlier. 

It really transformed our main floor into the sea!

From there I went to Pinterest to get some ideas :)

The seaweed hanging down turned out better than I expected.

I pinned strips of packing tape to the ceiling and, like fly tape, 

I stuck up each strip of streamer.

This cute little octopus was another Pinterest idea.

 The submarines on the straws I think I made with my Silhouette again.

 I'm not a baker and this was the easy way out for me :) 

The kids love them just as much if not more because of the candies.

Saw this on Pinterest except they found a much lighter blue jello. I was disappointed that you couldn't see the candy fish I wedged into the jello after it hardened.

Another Pinterest idea...put the frozen yogurt in too soon.

The crafts I found on Pinterest and the mom's had more fun then the kids putting them together I think.

Aren't they cute!

 I can't seem to find my inspiration for the submarine sandwiches and fish in blueberries/water.

Ignore the double chin....I'm pregnant remember :)

 After lots of shopping I came up with these party favors.

ocean creature bath toy 

dolphin soap bar

little wash cloth

pack of gold fish crackers

plastic fish toy 

The octopus on top is a covered lollipop with pipe-cleaner legs.

They were fun to make.

A great success and tons of fun for the little group of toddlers that came :)
