My sweet little God daughter Tara turned 4 today, and she had the most wonderful, most pink and purple, most princess-y party ever!  Today I'm sharing all the princess birthday party ideas to inspire you.

A Princess Welcome

From the moment we walked in the door it was magical. My friend Heather decorated the entrance with streamers, and the loot table, signs for any little girl of wonderful things to come! It also had the first activity, decorate your own tiara.

Princess Cookie Decorating

One of my favourite activities, and one of all the kids favourites too, based on the line up at one point, was the cookie decorating. Heather made princess cookies, and the kids decorated them with icing and candies.

Princess Beauty Shop

The main attraction was that the living room had been transformed into a princess beauty shop.

I love the garland of pink feather boas, mini lights, roses, and crystals, along with the pink mirrors so the little princesses could admire themselves! There were lots of beautiful princess gowns to wear.
