Dillon's Crazy Mad Scientist Party!!

It is my pleasure to share with you details of my son's Crazy Mad Scientist themed party created for his 6th birthday party!  All decor and the dessert table was designed and styled by myself, wendysprintableparty.etsy.com

My son had been attending a short after school club that involved the Mad Science team.  He loved taking part in the experiments and so began the seed that grew into the idea of him having the mad science theme party. 

This theme is perfect for boys or girls and the ideas are endless with many offering fun educational interaction for the little ones as well as the feeling of "playing" and just having fun. I really do recommend this theme as a party. 

For the entertainment we booked Mad Science North West and Scientific Sarah was the perfect party host.  The party guests were amazed and entertained by the cool  demonstrations and activities and the level of guest participation and interaction was great.  All children had the opportunity of making and taking home their own slime!!!! 

The package offered the option of an add on activity to finish with that we took up. This was  a sit on Hoverboard Ride - the kids thoroughly enjoyed this and was a fantastic end to the party - the only issue I had was that I was too big to have a go ;) 

The  Package also provided a Mad Science lab coat for the birthday boy which was signed by all of the party guests. A really nice touch and idea for a keep sake memory.

Invitations

Above is a sample of the invitations that I designed for the Mad Science Party.  Each invite was handed out in a plastic test-tube with a "caution - open with care sign"! I went with this colour scheme throughout the party.

Decorations

• Backdrop -Colour coordinated with the theme of the party to go behind the dessert table. 

• Cupcake Toppers and wrappers

• Food Card Labels 

• Science Experiment Book Decor - which were used to display party decor on the party table and dessert table. 

• Atom Centrepiece decorations - these were very effective and fun to make.  I used poloystrene balls which were painted to match the colour scheme.  I attached two wire wreath rings together and added the painted balls to make them look like atoms.

Party Favors

• Treat Bags - For the party treat bags I designed a personalised template for these mad scientist lab coat inspired boxes. I filled the bags with goodies such as handmade felt bow tie, crazy plastic glasses, eyeball bubbles, a science lab security clearance tag and a stick on moustache.

• Party Hats - to match with the theme I created the Mad Scientist themed headband hats! Simple but very effective and gave great results on the photo opportunities.

• Remote Control Mini Popcorn Box - I also designed Remote Control Mini Popcorn Box templates which were on the dessert table and were filled with lots of treats for the mini Mad Scientist's.

Dessert Table 

I had lots of fun creating the desserts for the party, these included: -

• Test Tube Treats (filled with Jelly Beans)

• Radioactive Jelly (in petri dishes with jelly sweet) 

• Oozy Oreo Pops 

• Snack Remote Control Popcorn Boxes - filled with popcorn and savoury snacks.

• Mad Scientist Cupcakes 

Here are a few of the items which I created, I had such fun designing all of these : -

These Lab Coat treat bags are available to purchase from my Etsy store (click here). These are fully customisable.

These Remote Popcorn Box templates are available to purchase from my Etsy store (click here). These are fully customisable.

My son found the cake design idea online and a good friend made her version of the cake together with the awesome Mad Scientist Cupcakes! 

This theme really was an enjoyable one for me to make and expand on, I had so much fun designing the decor and dessert for this Crazy Science party - such a fun theme!  

I hope you enjoyed looking at the photos and details as much as I did planning and creating and hope you see something to maybe give you inspiration for your own event. :)

Jack's Hot Air Balloon Themed Christening Party

I am pleased to share with you details of a recent, hot air balloon themed christening party which I had the great pleasure of styling and designing all of the decorations.  This was a fantastic theme and colour scheme that is very well suited for a little boy's christening or birthday party! 

Table Decorations 

I first covered each individual table with a white banqueting table cover so, this helped to make all of the tables match, to finish off I then added a green runner down the centre of each table.

For the table centrepieces I designed and made these super cute hot air balloon decorations.  I designed the templates for the base which were made to look like baskets and I used the coordinating papers to create the hot air balloon.  They looked really effective and drew many comments.   

In addition to the centrepieces I also made some small clouds in blue and yellow paper that tied in perfect with the colour scheme these were then scattered onto the tables. 

To finish off the tables I included small paper airplanes, these were placed down the centre  line of the table on top of the runner, these proved to be a big hit with adults and children alike as they inevitably doubled up as a fun activity to throw haha!  It took a bit of searching and research to find the right template for the airplanes and the resulting selection were perfect, quite easy to make and most importantly they flew amazingly !!! ;-) 

Here are the cute centrepieces which I used for the tables! 

Room Decorations

I designed this coordinating banner to match in with the theme and colours.  The banner, bunting, table sign and cupcake toppers will soon be available for purchase in my store please feel free to visit and see the listing, of course this can be made fully personalised to your needs. 

Personalised hot air balloon cupcake toppers and cloud cupcake toppers in matching colour scheme.

The cake topper was designed to mirror as a small version of the table decorations and looked  very cute sat on top of the cake which was made to look like the sky!   I also added a small bunting banner with Jack's name behind the cake topper.

Personalised picture for the cake table.

Hot air balloon decorations complimented with helium filled balloons. 

To complete the party stage area I made this hot air balloon photo prop.  This was made from a large cardboard box which I painted to look like the basket and then added a small banner around the box to tie in with the overall colour scheme, sandbags were added and the finishing touch of helium filled balloons.  This was a fun addition to the party and the kiddies enjoyed having their photographs taken in it! Some lovely single and group photos were produced from this simple but effective prop. 

Thank you for taking the time to read this short blog and I hope you enjoy looking at the photos as much as I did planning and creating and hope that you may see something to give you inspiration for your own event. :)
