Blue Birthday Decorations


My niece just turned nine. She requested blue decorations and I had a lot of fun finding blue items to decorate with. Her favorite color is blue and she has a great sense of humor.

The first of the blue decorations were actually wedding decorations. I found a florist that had blue bows for sale

after a wedding. They were practically giving them away. They also had tiny blue bottles of bubbles that I bought as favors.

I also found some really cute Blue’s Clue’s decorations. She and her friends are always making fun of her little sister’s new found love of Blue’s Clue’s, so those decorations were really an inside joke. They all laughed hysterically when they saw the big Blue’s Clue’s banner proclaiming Happy Birthday.

The garden center near our home had leftover blue Christmas lights at a deep discount. I purchased them because I thought they would be great with the blue decorations. I put them all over the bushes in the back yard.

A blue ballerina decorated the top of my niece’s cake. I found her when I was hunting through a sale table at the party store. I was also able to find blue latex balloons that day. I really was able to find a lot of blue decorations.

I decided that the blue decorations were complete after I bought a lot of blue silk remnants from the cloth store at the corner. I was able to put splashes of blue color all over the house. She loved it and has been contemplating a purple for next year!
