Finding Dory party supplies

With the release of the new finding Dory movie, my prediction is an influx of kids requesting a Finding Dory party or underwater party this year!

My girls and I enjoyed the movie over the school holidays and it is definitely a fun one for both boys and girls – so if you have a little swimmer wanting a Dory (or Nemo) party, I’ve curated some Finding Dory party supplies to get you started!

Some inspiration to get you started –  this table setting by Tiny Tots Events (Melbourne) is a great example of pulling it all together simply with theme treats, colour and sea shells as props!

Water inspired – mermaid birthday party

Today I am sharing a gorgeous mermaid birthday party photo shoot which is the 3rd Life’s Little Celebrations collaboration photoshoot for Confetti fair magazine. This shoot was inspired by water and was based around the popular mermaid party theme for a 4th birthday!

 

 

This beautiful setting was styled and coordinated by Melbourne event stylist Sprinkled Event Stylist using a variety of Life’s Little Celebrations partners to bring the gorgeous ocean inspired colours to life through all the handmade decorations and amazing desserts!

The beach and ocean created the best natural backdrop for this amazing mermaid party setup!:

Mermaid Party Supplies

I LOVE a Mermaid party theme….I think it’s because of the gorgeous colour combinations that you often find with this theme….coral pinks, aqua blues, mint green, lavender…I love it all.

It is very easy to style with shells and other sea related decorations however I don’t even think you HAVE to go overboard with lots of sea related decor. You can just go with a very sea inspired colour scheme and using lots of these colours throughout your party alone can create a sea feel.

Here are some mermaid party supplies which will help you on your way to dreaming up a mermaid celebration for your child – many of course are from vendors listed in the Life’s Little Celebration’s children’s party directory!
