Nautical Themed Sailboat Birthday Party

Party Details told by Kristen- “This year for Jett’s party I decided to go with the Nautical theme. I had so much fun putting this party together. I’ve been planning it for months now. I made the invites myself. I found the nautical code flags at a local boat shop. The striped plates were from Shop Sweet Lulu. The red plates are from Target and the napkins were found at Home Goods. I had Janelle from One Sweet Slice make this amazing cake. She was amazing to work with and she did an incredible job. I told her I wanted an ombre wave theme and she totally carried out my vision. The nautical cupcake toppers were bought from Shindigz. I thought they were super cute. I created the drink station with fabric found at Home Fabrics for $5.99 a yard and a plastic life saver from a local party store. I found some great red striped paper straws at Shop Sweet Lulu. I added the blue flags with blue ribbon and double stick tape. The bird art was found at T.J. Maxx and is by Two’s Company. I made little foam boats for the kids to float from kits found here. I just used a permanent marker to add some blue stripes. I also used one of these for my cake topper. I wanted to have some kind of boat for the kids to play in. I just constructed this out of cardboard. I added a couple of nautical flags bought from Oriental Trading. The backdrop was made from this. I just cut it to size. I made the favors with plastic fish from a party store and lifesaver mints.”
