Yo Gabba Gabba Party Prepping

I've been shopping for the past few weeks just gathering supplies for the decorations of Abram's 2nd birthday party and today I finally got around putting some of them together. The theme of course is Yo Gabba Gabba, Abram and Elian's favorite show at the moment. Great show by the way.

I went to Michael's and got some card stock paper for the invitations. I downloaded and printed all the graphics, which came from this amazing mom's tutorial. They came out better than I expected by the way.



I've also started working on the tee shirts the boys are going to wear. Since Abram's favorite Gabba character is Plex, I had to make him the Plex shirt. Elian will be wearing the Muno tee. I've still got to get around sewing them, right now they've got the pins on them to hold the faces in place.


I got this little red container at Dollar Tree and I customized it with a Muno eye and smile. My cutouts are not perfect but when Abram saw it he was all excited. However, I'm putting a cricut on my bday wish list this year. Any donations?


I also printed the heads of all the Gabba characters as they will be part of my centerpieces. I'm just not quite finished with that project, yet.


So far it's been very exciting to work on this bday party theme. I've got Mr. R working on a Plex costume that he will be wearing that day. He is actually pretty creative (and a major perfectionist) when it comes to all these things. I've got to upload a picture of him working on Plex on my next post.
