I always over-plan and over-spend. So this year when i started planning for my daughters 5th birthday i made a decision that i would figure out how to go the cheaper route and still be considered the “party of the year”. And i succeeded !!
First things first i made my mind up on the theme we have done tons of themes so i had to think a little bit. Year #1 we did princess with full candy bar. Year #2 I had the zoo come to our house they brought the Australian package kangaroos etc… Year #3 we did carnival then Year #4 Horses and Hairbows which brings us to this Year #5 Spa Day !!
My daughter is obsessed with everything prissy. She dpends hours going thur my fashion magazines circling what she likes and ripping out all perfume samples to keep.
So getting totally pampered this year fit perfectly.
When i do a themed party i personally like to have a set color palette as well in this case gold, black and white.
Everything i list was bought at My local Dollar Tree, Party City, Oriental Trading or off Ebay.
Stations:
Hair
Nails
Makeup
Feet
Face
Photo Props
The hair station had everything you needed for “crazy hair” pipe cleaners, spray glitter and color, feather extensions, & pony tail holders.
My nail station was the most embellished. I had tons of neat things to pick from. Nail art pens, stickers, jewels, pearls and very cute 3D nail pieces. It looked like a fully stocked nail bar.
The makeup station was easy what little girls dont like red lipstick and 1980’s bright eyeshadow. I simply picked up tons of body glitter and bright color choices.
My foot pedicure station was a big hit i bought small plastic foot containers then cut out “Spa Ca’Rin” on my cameo to give them a personalized look. I added warm water and peppermint foot soak for each girl.
And last the most sassy station of all was the face station. I got the cucumber face masks and cut fresh cucumbers. And each girl got a white hand mirror that i added rinstones to. All the giggling this station provided was well worth it.
I also bought cute spa photo props and set up a little area for that.
The rustic window was made by me from wrapping paper and gift bags from Target. And the enjoy today sign was made using paint and my cameo.
My favorite party of the party was everything matchy matchy you will see from photos.
Food fare was light and simple your basic spa like foods such as ham and cheese roll ups. Fruit dip with chips, sausage balls, grapes and cheese. Matching zebra cakes, suckers, gumballs and swiss rolls. The cake and cupcakes were amazing! And tied it all together a local lady made those for me.
We did all this and with a budget yall !!! Now it’s your turn to have a spa day for your daughter !!!
