I have been sharing some of the details of my daughter’s Minnie Mouse Birthday Party this week and am back to share how it all came together. I have just a few more easy and fun Minnie Mouse Party Ideas to share with you today. All of these things I was able to put together in just a couple of hours including the Minnie Mouse Cupcakes and the Minnie Mouse Oreo Pops that I shared earlier.
First off I was able to make this fun little birthday banner with my daughter’s name on it. I have removed her name for privacy reasons. I found a cute piece of scrapbook paper that had some fun letters on it. So I simply cut out the letters of her name and then glued them onto a red and white polka dot square of paper or a black piece of paper and then had then alternating. Then I cut out three Mickey Mouse heads, which I made by tracing one large circle and then two smaller circles of the same size for the ears. Then simply placed a circle of the red and white polka dot paper on the inside. The possibilities are endless. And you can see that I simply took a piece of rope and clipped them onto the rope with some clothes pins. Not the fanciest…but super easy and re-useable.
Then for the party drinks we served up some good old Coca-Cola and for the non-soda drinkers some red Fruit Punch. And do you remember the fun Mason Jar Drinks from my other daughter’s birthday party? I simply used the same jars and added new scrapbook paper to the lids to match this party theme. But I also added another small detail…some Mickey Mouse ears. I just added it to the very first one and let the birthday girl have that drink. You could add it to all of them…but I was on some time constraints.
I always like to add a pop of color by throwing some candy in a jar. The kids usually LOVE this part and snack on it till we are ready to break out the dessert table. We also had the Minnie Mouse Oreo Pops available for the guests to take home as a little party favor if they wanted to.
And I have to share something personal if you don’t mind. I was out of town for 5 days at The Creative Connection Event where I went as part of their Social Media Team, which basically meant I was there to tweet all of the fun things that we were learning. And if you follow me on Twitter I am sure you were very well aware of that fact…maybe even stopped following me at some point ! Anyways, since I was so busy with the preparations for that, I didn’t have much time to get things together for her birthday or her birthday presents. In the Minnesota airport there was a vendor who sold pillow pets…which was exactly what my daughter had put on her birthday wish list (since her older sisters have them). And they had the little pillow pets which was exactly what I had been hoping to get for her. BINGO! I love it when things like that happen. Saved me some serious searching around at home especially since I had no time to do it.
I think she likes it! What do you think?
Happy Birthday to my sweet baby…who isn’t really a baby anymore…but we will keep that our little secret!

That tablescape is darling!!! Nice job Amy! Mission Cute Minni Mouse Birthday Party: ACCOMPLISHED! :) I have no doubt your “baby” girl loved it! And I love the idea of putting the canning lids on the mason jars…I’ve been collected large and small mason jars and that’s just about all we use to drink out of now :) but adding lids and straws is genius! xoxo
Amy says
ahhh! You are too cute! Mason jars are so fun to drink fun. They make the drink ten times better due to the cuteness factor!
Oh my GOSH. Everything turned out absolutely AMAZING! I’m sure your little girl just loved it ALL. You are so talented and creative! :) I love every little detail!
Thank you Stephanie. I really appreciate your kind comments!
Wow! That looks like you spent a TON of time on it. SO stinkin’ adorable. Sure wish I had an ounce of your creativity to come up with things like that on my own, instead of having to be a copy cat. :)
Voted for you. Good luck!!
Nothing wrong with copy cats! Thanks so much!
I have a two year old with a serious Micky and Minnie fixation and a burning desire to have her birthday NOW, despite the fact that it’s over two months away. I’m thinking a Minnie Mouse birthday is going to be just the ticket for her this year. Thanks for sharing all your fun and great ideas and making it easier on all us other moms! :)
haha! Hope she loves it. I love sharing and love getting ideas from other moms too.
Love the pillow pet pewees. That is what we got our kids, so much better than adding a big pillow on their bed. And way better for traveling!
The party was adorable! Thanks for sharing the how to.
So true Kristie! She is so tiny too that the peewee seems to be a perfect fit.
Ridiculously adorable!!!! I’m headed to Parents.com to vote for you now. :-)
Blessings,
Anna
