Batman Birthday Party

When boys are 9 years old they know what they want to do and play during their birthday parties. This year my son Daniel wanted to be and play like his favorite super hero: Batman.

The hero-adventure started with me going out to two different parts of the city searching for Batman party supplies. But I found NADA! So I had to put my favorite costume on: DIY Mom!

The only things I finally bought were plain cups and plates, the balloons where a gift from my local toy store! and with the help of Pinterest I got a lot of practical ideas. Here you can see how my patio looks like now, but changings are happening and I will show that in another interior relate post. Now, back to the party...

To decorate the cups I printed the Batman logo that I found on the blog The Mathews Family Happenings on Avery's sticker project paper, pasted on the cups and with a white marker I wrote the name of each guest. For the Batman masks I used {this} template and I put crayons on the table so the boys could decorate them as well as Batman coloring pages.

My biggest project for this party was the Gothic City background witch I made inspired by the blogger Mom and the Blonds. I made my using cardboard boxes that I collected at work. I painted some in blue for the sky and the rest in black after I cut out the building shapes. For the yellow windows I printed out yellow squares in the Avery sticker project paper and pasted them on the black painted cardboard. We used the Gothic background for a fun photo-shoot.

The Super hero food for this party was hamburgers and my son´s favorite birthday cake: Skillingsboller Kake; {here} you can read more about this special cake.

I also made Super hero Popcorn holders using a very funny comic page that I found in Papergreat. I printed the page in black and white, rolled it and secured it with tape. The boys loved this idea and I am sure I am going to used it again. Funny enough, after eating all the popcorn they all tried to read the content of the page.

Wow! It was a really fun party and there is only one week for the next one!
Which Super Hero is going to help me this time?

Summer Party - Sommerkos på Haugalandet

"Sommerkos på Haugalandet" was an amazing party!

Fabelaktig Maia and MittSitt Karianne did a fantastic job putting together a wonderful afternoon that it's going to be very difficult to forget.

Designer Kristine Vikse and Cathrine from Bryllupsbyrået came to the party to inspire us.

We also got to taste delicious sweets from a local bakery and Eva Marianne and Trond told us about their firm, Amundsen special, that imports yummy food products.

Between all the goodies the most fun was to socialize with 49 creative girls!

I just have to show you this pictures of Karianne! She is such a beautiful person and her house was a  reflection of her personality.

Thanks' to my partners in crime drommenombadekar Kristine and  i vinduskarmen Veronika for a safe and fun trip from Bergen to Haugesund! We made it with 49 Clas Ohlson lamps in the trunk of the car :)

This are some pictures I found in the blogs: Tretoen,

What A Weekend!

I am going to have a busy weekend and I love it!

This week I have been preparing my son's birthday with his classmates on Friday. The theme is "Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na... BATMAN!" I didn't find any Batman birthday supplies at the stores so I had to use my imagination and create my own theme version. I will write a post with DIY ideas for it! The invitations cards I found via Etsy.

Outfit: Check!
