Wackadoo! Your Little One is TWO! - Bluey Birthday Inspiration

Purple Star emoji 29 items
My youngest daughter just turned two and requested a Bluey themed party! There are SO many cute ideas for this, which makes it harder to decide what to use for your own party without spending a fortune. I've compiled this list of links to things that...

Table Decorations

This out of the whole party was the thing I struggled with the most! There were SO many cute ideas, but everything I liked (even the DIY things) would've been crazy expensive for as many tables as we had. I kept it simple with coloring pages and some...

I used these table covers from Hobby Lobby to cover all the tables that people would be sitting at. They were really great quality for the price! 

I used lavender, pastel blue, classic pink, ivory, and fresh lime! And I even used bright blue as a backdrop for a bulletin board at our venue! Perfect size, great coverage, and they didn't rip like crazy by the end of the party!

I saved the classic bluey table covers for the gift/dessert table and the food table! I purchased mine from my local target and I noticed that the online price was actual cheaper than in-store! They were super willing to price match for me, but just ...

I can't fully take credit for this wonderful idea because it was actually my mom's! I bought this coloring book and just ripped out some pages and decoratively laid them out across the tables. It was really that simple! I couldn't believe how many pe...

I used a couple of these cups on each table to hold the crayons. They were the perfect height for this because they crayons barley stuck out over them! And they just added to the bluey theme of course!

I used crayons that I had already purchased for our homeschool year, but here is a great option if you don't already have a ton of crayons lying around! It's great because even though this is a little expensive for what we are going for, it's still b...

I think these were hands down my personal favorite purchase for the party! I put some fruit in each letter and they alone decorated the food table! I made these the center of attention and just nicely displayed everything else around them.

I actually already had this table cloth from when my other daughter did a Spiderman themed birthday party. I used it for the utensil table, which was small, so I folded it in half! These table clothes are great to keep and reuse! I've used the blue n...

And again, budget-friendly because they are reusable!

I used two of these, one for the dessert/gift table and one for the utensil table! These were big, but took up the perfect amount of space that I needed them to!

"Wall" Decorations

I had a bulletin board and a random blank space of a wall that I was trying to cover up, but I didn't want to spend a lot of money doing so. This is where a lot of my DIY skills came in handy because I made my daughter a flag banner style “Happy Birt...

I used the pastel colors to make the flag banners! I alternated every color (besides blue since that was my background color) and it was so cute and colorful! I also used the yellow for the center of my daisies!

I personally like keeping white cardstock on hand for different projects and crafts with the kids. This is the cardstock I used to trace the letters, then I just glued them to the flag banners. I also used it for the daisies. It was time consuming, b...

I couldn't resist these bingo and bluey balloons when I saw them! I just used an inflator I have for an inflatable bed to fill them up and it worked great! I stuck them to the wall, although my girlies quickly asked for them to come down so they coul...

My daughter instantly wanted to take a picture in front of this! She kept saying “bluey's house!” 

I was also very impressed for the quality of this given the price! I plan on keeping this for them to play with, and it made for a really cute photo moment! Would be even cuter with printed out photo props glued to popsicle sticks from the dollar tre...

Tableware

I tried to spend the least amount of money on plates and utensils because I didn't want an overabundance leftover and I wanted to be able to throw away anything we didn't use.

These were the perfect size for food. I bought them in-store and again, they were much cheaper online, but they price matched them for me!

I got these for dessert. However, we didn't really need these for the cupcakes. If you were getting/making a cake or having cookies or something though, these would be perfect! Again pay attention to the price if you shop in-store!

I was actually really impressed with the quality of these plastic utensils! The blue glitter wasn't as prominent as shown in the pictures, but again the quality was great! Very comparable to the Party City ones, but ours is closed.

Food/Refreshments

I didn't do anything crazy here because we were serving a lot of people. We went with hot dogs, fruit as mentioned above, cheetos (because they are my daughter's favorite), and cupcakes! Then, for drinks, we had bottles of water and a lemonade bar. H...

This was perfect to hold the lemonade! I do recommend putting it on some kind of stand to elevate it unless you have a surface people can pull it towards the edge to get the beverages out.

Used these so people could easily pump the different flavors we had, and they fit the torani bottles we had PERFECTLY. These were nicer quality than I expected and SUPER easy to clean afterwards. This makes them super reusable friendly, especially if...

We got the few flavors we had from HomeGoods, but I'm also going to link a great deal that has a few flavors and pumps that come with them!

All 3 of these flavors would be great for lemonade if that's what you are interested in! Our lemonade bar was a big hit! You can also use these flavors for things like dirty alanis after your party as well! So while the price seems a lot for just the...
