My 5-year-old nephew asked for a Space party to celebrate his birthday. Boys always are boys 😁 After some research we couldn't find a lot of beautiful inspiration so I decided to make our own and make this beautiful space-themed party.

Look for yourself! How do you think we did?

Decorations

Space themed birthday party

Sources:

  • Balloon garland
  • Star garland
  • Table cloth
  • Balloon weights

For decorations, we bought this outer space balloon kit and made this magnificent garland. It was so much easier to make than I originally thought. And the kit had everything we needed.

What space party could be without stars? This star garland was so cute and added unforgettable charm to the table with food, covered in black starry glitter cloth.

You could also try to make the star garland by yourself if you have a Cricut machine, but we felt that it's much easier to get a pre-made one.

Food

Sources:

  • Mini dessert cups
  • Paper plates and cups pack
  • Black paper straws
  • Icing for galaxy cupcakes

For food, we had a lot of healthy options, plates with strawberries, grapes, and of course cupcakes and a cake! The cake is a show stopper for sure!

We also made berry greek yogurt granola parfait in these cute mini dessert cups. I followed this recipe for it. That was such a big hit!

Everything was served on specially themed plates for this outer space birthday party. This party pack was so perfect for it along with black paper straws.

We got a cake from the local bakery and my sister made these gorgeous galaxy cupcakes that took Instagram by storm.

Party favors

What kid wouldn't enjoy goodie bags? Here is a list of what contained our goodie bags.

Sources:

  • Outer space favor bags
  • Austronaut figurines
  • Crayon bubbles
  • Outer space pencils
  • Mini space notebooks

And of course, the hit of the party was this outer space pinata. The kids were so excited! I would call this outer space birthday party a huge success!

DIY single mom | 📍CT
Hi 👋🏻 I haven't done this in awhile so thoug Hi 👋🏻
I haven't done this in awhile so thought I'd introduce myself.

Im a DIYer by passion, art business MA by education. 

I came to USA from Russia 13 years ago. I had an itching urge for adventures 😅

I lived in NYC for the most part and worked at the auction house till I had kids and had to move and adjust to suburban life. 

My passion for DIY started when I had my first baby and saw a Montessori baby gym. So I thought.. I probably can make it too! 

And I did 😅 

When we already moved to CT, I saw a Montessori floor house bed that was well over my budget, so I thought I'd try it out too... 

That's when I got my first power tools as an anniversary gift and the rest was history😂

Now I'm a single mom to 2 little girls (Sasha and Sia) and a beautiful long coat German Shepard puppy, named Drogo (after khal Drogo from GOT😁)

We bought our first house in the summer - a 1900s beauty so I had to switch gears from woodworking and start working on room renovations, to make this house our home. 

The progress is very slow, since life always gets on the way🤦🏻‍♀️ but my motto is progress, even slow is better than nothing. 

I can't wait to get a shed so I can pick up my woodworking projects again. Working out of my porch in the winter is not pleasant 🥶

If you'd like to know me more, sign up for my newsletter in link in bio! ☺️

Thank you for following my journey, now tell me something about yourself!

Haha so here is a thing... I'm not sure how often Haha so here is a thing... I'm not sure how often you wash your hair, but I do it every 4-5 days. And my entire schedule depends on a "hair day"🤣

I'd never do a workout or a messy project if I just did my hair that morning😁 

Making videos every day with fresh hair is quite hard lol 

Now I'm trying out a new thing... I make "lifestyle", nice reels on my hair day and leave all messy projects for "not a hair day" 🙈😁

Can you relate? Or am I the only one?😁
Would you ever do a workout or a messy project if you just did your hair in the morning? 😅
