Starbucks Theme Birthday Party

3rd July 2020

This was my first attempt at a balloon garland. Other than when I got dizzy, saw stars, and had to sit down from blowing them up so quickly, t’was good. You can buy balloon garland strips at Hobby Lobby or on Amazon for under 5 dollars. You just blow up your balloons and they pop into the garland strip securely.

I wanted big old Frappucinos down the table and made these guys super easily. The cups are one dollar silver plastic ice buckets from Dollar General that I spray painted white. The brown balloons came in a one dollar pack from there as well and the stuffing “whip cream” came in a 3 dollar bag from Hobby Lobby. The drizzle is fo’ shizzle puff paint. I’m sure you have figured out that the straws are spray painted toilet paper rolls. WRONG! I made those from wrapping paper rolls all cut up. Tricky, tricky.

This is the cake that I made from all store bought things, including the cakes themselves, and the icing! The logo is edible and I ordered that off of Etsy from GlamourGlove and was very pleased! She is offering a discount code for you guys too so you can choose from many options an edible cake/cupcake image for your next party! Just use code BLOGTOPPER10 at checkout! Thanks, GlamourGlove!

You already know I made a coffee filter garland.

Everybody got to order any Starbucks drink of their choice and I had my hubs pick-up and deliver them to the par-tay.

These little bags were cute, but plain on my simple table set-up, so I had to spice them up a bit. I bought Happy Birthday bottle label from Hobby Lobby to put on each bag and then used Starbucks straws and tissue paper to make them look drink-ish. The tissue paper is supposed to be the whip. Work with me here.

I put Starbucks/party themed gumballs in mini frap cups to send home in said bags with each kid. It was a cheap thrill and cute little detail. The main favors are below.

Aw yeah, boyzzzzzz! I ordered these Starbucks scrunchies from A Stitch Ahead Bowtique on Etsy. The shop is owned by a 10 year old little girl, which is cool, and the fabric and work was really good quality. The girls loved them! The only way to get a Starbucks scrunchy is to have them made so they were unique too. Bonus points…..

To say that I loved this take home craft, would be a drastic understatement. But first, I must tell you how I packaged it.

I’m a sucker for clear boxes. I bought a digital file on Etsy of Starbucks labels that I had customized to say DIY Frappucino. I printed them out at Staples, my jam, and hot glued them on. Inside I added paper shred, which you can by from dollar stores, and added in all the supplies needed to make a mini frap for each girl. Yessssss!

Oh my gosh…..using silicone, glue sticks, puff paint, communion cups, ornament halves for the lids, toothpicks, glass beads, mini Starbucks logos I printed off Pinterest, and Starbucks straws, you can make American Girl sized Starbucks frappucinos!!! I can’t. I love them. I made 3 for myself. That’s not a lie either, lol. I made a cool time lapse video of me making one that will be on my herpartypants Instagram account. Totally Rudy on YouTube has a whole channel of mini doll accessory DIYs, including these little drinks.

I will probably do a post on making these mini drinks, because I think everyone should make them at least once in their…..week. Weekly. They are the best.

They got to take home their creations in the little clear boxes I had at each place setting that originally held their supplies.

And a merry Starbucks time was had by all! Pin, share, and enjoy! Hope you liked it!

    Now I know they got the babies mixed up at the hospital! No one related to me could possibly be this creative!
