**Luckystar** TMNT party

You had a ninja turtles theme party for your daughter, right?  I have finally been able to get Jake to commit to a theme (he was going back & forth between the turtles and Jake & the neverland pirates for a long time)  Let me know if you have any cute ideas or printables or anything!  we're doing it at an actual place this year, not at my house (thank goodness) so I don't have to worry too much about decor or games or anything, but if I can throw something together easily (and frugally!) I always love to contribute to the theme :)

    How fun!!

    I just sent you a friend request on FB if you want to see some pics from dd's party. There's an album in my photos of dd's 5th birthday that they are in.

    I didn't do a ton. I got a TMNT banner. We had a piñata and that was mostly the favors. At the time I couldn't find TMNT piñata so I made one out of a regular turtle! Since then I have seen actual ones around (Walmart I think).
    I filled it with candy in the turtle colors.
    Everything was just green, red, blue, orange and purple.

    I made some decorations out of green paper lanterns. I loved them!! They turned out so cute!

    I printed out a few things but unjust put them together myself using pics I found online.

    Walmart had some rubber bracelets for TMNT that we gave out.we also had masks for everyone in turtle colors. I had stuff for them to decorate but we didnt end up having a ton of time for it. But I know you did something similar for his party last year since that's where I got the idea.

  • those pics are so cute!  did you make that cake?  I saw a similar cake topper on amazon; I hate baking, but I was thinking about ordering a market district cake just with icing and having them write happy birthday Jake, then putting that topper in the corner (I love the taste of their cake, but they don't have any ninja turtles items to decorate it with) 

    did you use a pattern for the ninja turtle lantern masks?  I have some green lanterns we use for our luau party that I could easily slap a mask on.

  • Dh made the cake that was a turtle face that is earlier in the album. But the one at her friend party was just a grocery store cake. I decided after her first and second bday that I didn't want to do the cakes anymore!!!

    The cake topper was from amazon! We also threw on some of the TMNT Lego characters on the cake.

    For the lanterns, the masks are crepe paper. The eyes and mouths, I downloaded pics of each of the turtles and enlarged the pics so the eyes and mouths were the size I wanted. Printed and cut them out. Hot glued onto the lantern/mask.

  • Post hopping...my sister had a TMNT cake. Giant eagle did a turtle out of cupcakes and then a few of them were orange for the bandana. She also spray painted those metal cake pans that are 2/$1 at dollar tree green and added a ribbon tie so everyone had a turtle shell on their back
