Every year, parents are tasked with coming up with creative ideas for their kiddos’ birthday bash. And every year, they may struggle with coming up with a theme, menu, guest list, and party décor to match their little boy or girl’s interests at the time.

If you want to venture into something different this year, you should think of going the DIY route. With coronavirus-imposed restrictions still in place, it may be safer to create party items with what you have at home rather than shopping for them.

Here are a few tips that can help you make the most of what you have to throw a delightful party for your little ones.

Create A Photo Backdrop:

There’s nothing that gets party-goers in the festive mood more than a chance to take pictures. Allow your kids and their friends to make memories with a bright photo backdrop. Create it using crepe paper and metallic paper cut in dots to give a polka dot background for pictures.

Alternatively, you can use balloons in different sizes to create a textured background for selfies. Add streamers and tassels for extra pops of color. This DIY is fast and cheap and will last the entire party.

Build A Balloon Arch:

Here’s another DIY that uses balloons: Use them to fashion a balloon arch over the entrance for a special welcome. All you need to make it is wire, command hooks, and balloons in various colors and sizes.

Use bright colors to get everyone in the mood to party. You can also use a balloon arch over the photo backdrop or the snacks table.

Make A Tassel Garland:

If you want something slightly different from the regular balloons and streamers, this idea is for you! DIY a fashionable tassel garland out of colorful tissue paper and twine.

This craft is super simple to make, so you can get the kids involved in making tassel garlands for the snacks and dessert table, the doorways, and more.

Add Light With Paper Lanterns:

Paper lanterns may not be suitable for everyday décor, but they look gorgeous at parties. These small light fixtures can be made easily using templates online, and you can even save them for next time once the party is over.

Use cardboard paper and paint and let the children paint them in their favorite colors for an inexpensive touch of fanciness.
