Jacob's Violinist & Orchestral Composer Birthday Party Part 1
Hello, today I present yet another composer themed birthday party, but specifically violinist-themed. This was my brother's birthday party last year. The metallic balloons come in $1 packs at Walmart, while the rest came from Dollar Tree. I outlined the letters on the poster, painted them with gold metallic paint (or used metallic markers which would have been ideal, but I think I was out), and outlined them in pen or permanent marker. I found composer bust images online, put them on a Canva document and tried to match the colors, edited a photo of my brother (who had dressed up as Mozart the year before) to look like stone, printed the images and glued them on. I could not find (affordable) music-themed foods my brother would like, so I used marshmallows and Whoppers to at least kind of look like piano colors in the favor bags. I created a printable on Canva that read "Thank you for making Jacob's party grand!" with a grand piano graphic. Everything else was on hand. The favor printable is included below, ready to customize with a different name should anyone be interested in using it.

Will's Nike/Kicks Themed Birthday Party
Hello, today I'd also like to share Will's birthday party theme from last year, which was shoes/Nike/kicks. I used a large Sharpie to create the "Will is 17. Just Celebrate It." poster. The balloons came from the variety packs at Dollar Tree. I printed the shoe poster from Google and taped it to a (broken) letterboard. I bought the favor bags from Dollar Tree, printed shoes, and taped them on. They contained socks I thought each guest would like (also from Dollar Tree). I used free online printables to create the mini shoe boxes with candy. My grandparents made the cake. I used a mirror and basket I had on hand to create the cake stand.

Louie's Golf Club Birthday Party
Hello, I hope everyone's summer is off to a great start!
My summer has not started off so promising, and while I have hundreds of posts to share and have fallen so far behind, I wanted to start with this one featuring a birthday party for my uncle.
He could use prayers for healing urgently, for a miracle, so if you're reading this and would pray for him I would be so grateful.
This elegant golf club party was back in September (I think), and below are the details on all of the handmade elements:
-The backdrop was made of cardboard tri-fold boards painted green, and I used gold puffy paint for the logo.
-The golf cart cutout was made of cardboard and either painted or drawn on with Sharpie.
-The metallic and brown golf balls were from a pack at Dollar Tree (along with the small golf clubs) that I painted with acrylic paints. The mini flag also came in the set, and was likewise painted.
-The signs reading "Thank you for swinging by Louie's Part-Tee! Please take a favor" and "Have a donut hole in one" were drawn on cardstock with markers.
-I just wrote "Thanks fore swinging by!" on paper bags with party favors (which I think were candy though I don't remember for sure) for guests to take.
Everything else besides the balloons (from Dollar Tree) and tablecloth was already on hand, and my grandparents made the strawberry angel food cake.
