How to throw an “everyone’s birthday” Party

June 10, 2020~ Parties & entertaining

You heard me – everyone’s. Yours, mine, the cat’s and even Bruce’s. We felt like celebrating a bit this week, but had no real reason to do it, so we combined our birthdays and wedding anniversary into one big excuse for cake. This is how to throw an “everyone’s birthday” party. Hint: it’s easy.

Normally I’d have some of my DIY Party hats on, but I forgot about them until after. Oops! I got a few simple glitter crowns at our local party store’s clearance bin instead.

It’s real simple, and these days, it’s a great way to find an excuse to celebrate as a household or bubble unit.

Pick a date that has no other meaning to you

This only works if it’s not already someone’s birthday or anniversary, so make sure it’s a random Tuesday.

Make or buy a cake for each person celebrating

You can’t just get one compromise. I wanted vanilla sheet cake, Dan wanted red velvet, and we wanted a little cake smash piece for June.

I could have made them, but going to look at all the cakes in the display case was almost more fun, so I did that instead.

Decorate for a birthday party

I went all-out! I got a party balloon, made some banners, got all the cake toppers I could make or buy, and found a mini crown for June (she spent most of her time trying to eat it).

Cake Toppers

I’ve done several posts about dressing-up a store-bought cake, and it’s honestly the best hostess hack I’ve got. You should do it more often!

Singing Happy Birthday

We got Bruce in on the fun, sang happy birthday, and then dug in. June answered the eternal question: face to food? or food to face? with a pronounced “face to food.”

I made some felt hand puppets for June, and they’re totes adorbs, and a great way to include more skin tones in your child’s play. Head to the blog to see how I made ours ❤️

I am this week’s feature on the @littleyellowcou I am this week’s feature on the @littleyellowcouch podcast and I gotta say - FAN 👏🏻 GIRL 👏🏻 MOMENT. I had been listening since there were 2 hosts, and really got into it when I went full time with the blog during our first year posted to Gagetown. I found my colourful voice, and started making things like this beautiful glossy blue sideboard. 
There wasn’t really anyone else doing “colour” my way in the decor space at that time (everything was white farmhouse). And while there are definitely many more who do it now (and who do it better!), I’ll never forget the freedom I felt when no one was watching what I did. It has been so incredibly bittersweet watching new accounts lap me in a matter of months (and oh so humbling), but I like to think I’m exactly where I need to be. 
My growth has been slow by today’s standards, and I’m ok with it. I still get to do what I love. 
So, if you’ve been following me since then, the very beginning, or last week - stick around! Let’s see what the next stage is like.

JB’s Montessori playroom is looking pretty good, JB’s Montessori playroom is looking pretty good, especially now that all the Christmas decor is gone. Bear in mind, this is what it looks like before a child has actually had a chance to play in it 😂
