“Stickers” Birthday Party Theme Idea for Kids {with free custom sticker templates}

Stickers birthday party theme

Looking around our house it’s clear that “stickers” was the perfect theme for Elise’s second birthday party. Last year it was monkeys and bananas but like many kids her age Elise is a sticker junkie — the proof is on our refrigerator, furniture, clothing, floor and pretty much everywhere else. So “stickers birthday,” yeah, she’ll love it.

We bought oodles of stickers that we used on party decorations and of course for the kids to play with during the birthday party. I also made some 1″ custom stickers for the party sign…

…as well as 2″ circle stickers for birthday party guests to wear on their shirts (and to decorate the tablecloth on the food table but I forgot to take a photo, arg).

I made name stickers for the birthday party favor bags and tucked some inside with more stickers.

I decorated a white cupcake stand for Elise’s sprinkle cupcakes

My mom and I made party hats that the kids decorated at the party.

And after the party Elise loved making her own thank you notes — covered in stickers, of course.

Hi Melissa! Glad that you like the stickers party theme! It was a big, big hit. And super easy. I went to Party City for the bulk of the stickers and made the handmade ones too. What's your needed time frame? I'll need to dig waaaay back in my files to find these guys...
