Ellie Claire turns 3

Ellie’s Third Birthday party was my favorite party yet. I wanted to do a unique theme that hadn’t been overdone, so I racked my brain. We were driving passed the sand dunes near our house and it all clicked, A GENIE PARTY!

I asked Ellie if she would be happy with a genie party and she said, “Ummm.. Sure?” So i took that as a solid YES! ;)

I searched pintrest for ideas, and honestly there weren’t many genie birthday parties. There were a few Shimmer and Shine pins or Jasmine, but no genie themed boards.

My brain went to everything and anything genie. I found these cute glass colored bottles at the dollar store and bought as many as I could. The kids were able to use sparkly glue and stick gems on their bottles. This was so fun for the kids!

We also had some surprise genies come! They turned everyone into genies by putting gems on their foreheads and glitter by their eyes. Ellie was mesmerized by these girls. It was so cute!

It was a special day for a special girl! She had so many family and friends come. She felt so loved!

Now for the clean up.. ;)
