DIY Elmo Party: Dessert Table
You can create a simple, cost-effective dessert table for your party anywhere with these 5 simple steps! We set up this Elmo party on a kitchen island. 1. Clear off the counter! 2. Hang a fun piece of fabric as a backdrop behind the table or counter. 3. Hang balloons from the ceiling over the dessert table. We found these polka-dotted balloons at Hobby Lobby, and added a marble to make them hang down straight. 4. Use colorful dishes and trays for food and desserts. We made a cupcake stand using plates and mugs in our red & blue colors.
DIY Elmo Party: Easy Party Trays
Using silver trays that I found at the dollar store, I spray painted them a fun aqua blue to match the rest of the party decor. Be sure to always spray paint outside as the fumes can become a bit much. I also wouldn't recommend putting food directly onto the trays unless you use a sealer. I used the spray painted trays for milk and treat cups, so no food was actually touching the paint. All of the party printables for this Elmo's World Party are available in our etsy shop! Happy Planning,
DIY Elmo Birthday Party Treat Cups
Our Elmo Party came together a bit last minute, which meant I didn’t have time to order the colored treat cups I originally had in mind.

I have had lots of people write asking me where they could find these tiny milk bottles. So today I am sharing my secret. Ready... they are actually glass latte bottles that I get at Target! I know that some people have started selling similar ones on etsy, but this way you get the bonus of having to drink the lattes first :) I wash them out and remove the plastic wrapping, and you're ready to go! Before adding the milk, I dipped the end of the bottle into water, and then into a bowl of blue sprinkles. Add Elmo

Easy Elmo Birthday Party Food
I don’t believe that you have to spend a lot of time or money to throw a great kids’ party. A huge part of that is keeping the party food simple and familiar. When kids recognize what’s on the table, they’re more likely to eat it. That means less waste and fewer last-minute worries for you. It also helps tremendously to choose foods that can be prepared ahead of time. Then you’re not stuck in the kitchen when you should be enjoying the celebration. For this Elmo’s World party, we kept the menu easy and kid-approved with pizza bagels, carrots
