When I started planning the decor, I knew I didn’t want either of the standard Minnie Mouse color themes – no black/red/white or black/hot pink/white for this party. I kind of went with a strawberry lemonade color scheme first, but when it started to look a little too babyish (from the colors being slightly pastel), I upped the brightness factor. I also used some black, grey, and white for neutrals.
In the chicken wire frames, I put pictures of Stella from her first and second birthday. I stuck more crepe paper bows on top of the frames.
…and the party games and activities also added to the decor of the party…

Did you ever post your tutorial on how to make the banner? If not can you please do or email to me. Thanks.
Sarah says
Hi there – I didn’t but it is very easy to do. Cut triangles out of your fabric and use an iron on webbing and iron the triangles to the ribbon! Super simple 🙂
Sara says
I love all the Party Decor! I’m planning a Minnie party for my 3 year old as well. Thanks so much for the free printables. I also love the white pedestal frames, and could use those from year to year on parties. Would you mind sharing where you purchased those? Thanks!
Sarah says
Sure! Those are from Ikea – 99 cents!! You can get them in white and a few other colors I think, but white seemed the most versatile to me.
Jennifer HINOJOSA says
I am interested in purchasing the Minnie Mouse printables. Thanks! 🙂
Sarah says
Hi Jennifer!
Can you send me an email – [email protected] – and we can discuss what you need? Thanks!

I am trying to find the tutorial and printables for the minnie mouse party… please help me.i also cant seem to get back to the page with the minnie confetti provider….
Sarah says
The printables for the Minnie Mouse party are under the freebies tab on my facebook – but hurry, they will only be there another day or two. After that, they will be available for purchase in my Etsy store.
If the link does not work to the Etsy store, just search Minnie Mouse confetti and you may find someone. The person I used may have closed her shop.

What a wonderful party! It looks so pretty! I love planning my son’s birthday party and have done a Monster Bash (http://everydaywithlisa.blogspot.ca/2012/10/its-monster-bash-birthday.html) and an Imagination Movers Party. I am now doing the decor for my nephew’s birthday party (Dinosaur Train themed).
Thanks for the new idea’s, I’m happy to be a new follower!
