One of the benefits of doing a party theme that is really popular is having easy access to decor that matches the theme.
Right now Hobby Lobby has some really fun Carnival Party Stuff. Typically I don’t store buy very many decorations because of the cost. I’m usually on a low budget. However I asked for Hobby Lobby gift cards for Christmas and am taking advantage of the 40% off coupons.
One of my favorites is this Ferris Wheel centerpiece. It is $4.99 and with a coupon I scored it for 2.99. It was pretty easy to put together, but I did have to glue the base supports on myself. They had some adhesive strips which just didn’t cut it. Another plus is that the pieces are put together in a way that you could disassemble this and re-use it or resell it.
They’ve got plates, napkins, invitations, favors, the whole nine yards. Click HERE to see all of their carnival party merchandise.
Even if you don’t buy it from the store you can get inspiration to make your own. I also used their signs as a cue for what I should have at my party like Face Painting, Prizes, Popcorn, etc.
Here is a case of inspiration. Here is the Hobby Lobby Carnival Banner. I think it is $12.99 full price.
Here is my finished banner hanging over the living room. It will end up outside for party day, but I wanted to see the finished product all hung up.
Only 3 more sleeps until party day! The kids are getting really excited and so am I. I think I may have way over-planned activities for the party, so hopefully we get to everything.
