Maddie's Trolls Art Bash

Maddie's 7th Birthday was held in this beautiful, newly renovated community room at Maddie's family's church. To get our space party ready, we had Trolls decorations around the party room.

I made these little skewers with “Find Your Happy Place” and Poppy cutouts as well the Trolls paper lanterns (DIY instructions for the lanterns on our blog, http://bit.ly/2lEzf7U). On the tables, I used some colorful handkerchiefs to brighten up the white tablecovers. And, like we do for all Art Bashes, we made name tags for everyone and placed them on mini easels.

We made 2 crafts, a Trolls pencil with googly eyes and an Initial Canvas, and we threw some games in the mix as well.

Maddie’s Art Bash was so much fun, especially because the guests were an awesome group of 6 and 7 year old kids and Maddie’s family are such nice people! Happy Birthday Maddie!

• Activities / Games

  While we waited for everyone to arrive, we played kids charades then we started on the birthday banner. Our first craft was the Trolls pencils, picked out by Maddie and her mom. The kids picked out their feathers for their troll hair, then they added stickers and eyeballs. They turned out great! After a quick game and pizza break we went on to the BIG craft – Initial Canvas Paintings. I prepped the canvases ahead of time with their first initial, then the kids picked their own colors to make their personalized paint creations. They loved using the paint! Once we cleaned ourselves up it was time for cupcakes! We made tie dye frosting and the kids decorated their own cupcake with sprinkles and candy. Then we wrapped up the birthday party with a game of Bingo and some bubbles!
