Really love the decor! You truly went all out and created a bright and colorful underwater scene with mostly paper. And the fact that you did everything? Amazing!

Thank you so much for all your kind words, Nella! :) :) I LOVE creating most of my decor with paper, I feel it is a very economical way to create the party I have envisioned! I find it fun and exciting to create my parties in the most cost effective way possible, thus making everything myself. The hunt of finding a bargain is thrilling! LOL!! :)

Thank you!! :) I actually bought shell bras at the dollar store, took them apart and used the existing holes to thread them together with ribbon! The letters were cut out on my cricut and attached with pop dots. It was a very easy project! :)

Hi! Sorry, I didn’t see this comment. I hand drew the tails onto wrapping paper to create the pattern. From there I cut them out of felt, added the trim and tulle, then sewed together at the sides, stuffed, added elastic for the kids’ waists and stitched the top closed. :) They were a fairly easy project! Please ask if you have any more questions. :)

Beautiful party! I love everything! I am having a similar type party for my daughter and was wondering if the mermaid tail sat in front of the children with the elastic holding it on…or if their legs went inside with the stuffing?

Hello and thank you! :) The kids actually wore the mermaid tails behind them held on by elastic around the waist. I hope this helps!
