My kids L-O-V-E all things Sesame Street.
So for their 2nd birthday, we threw them a Sesame Street themed party.
They were in hog heaven!
First off, I made them all their own Sesame Street shirt featuring each of their favorite characters, personalized with their name and the number 2.
I found little plain t-shirts at Hobby Lobby for $2.99 each and printed out the designs using my regular ink jet printer and iron-on transfer paper (for dark fabric) from Staples.

I also made my daughter a pink sparkly tutu to go with her Abby Cadabby ensemble.
Armed with an elastic band and 3 rolls of pink tulle,
I followed this tutorial from Family Fun for a no-sew tutu.
To complete the kids' Sesame Street get-ups,
we also ordered them each a hand-made Sesame Street hat from Etsy.com.
They turned out super cute!
The invitations were made using Photoshop Elements.
I also made the Thank You tags for the cookie bags using Photoshop.
For the decorations, I made a Happy Birthday banner using my Cricut and the Elmo's Party cartridge.
Other Sesame Street characters were also sprinkled throughout the house.
I kept the food easy and kid-friendly by serving pizza, punch, goldfish crackers,
a variety of candy and Sesame Street cupcakes.
Guests were encouraged to wear party hats :)
The kids had a blast...
and I really enjoyed putting it all together.
The party is long gone now and I have all of the leftover decorations,
which I would hate to throw away,
so...
if you would like the banner, characters, the hats, and a few leftover thank you tags,
leave me a comment with your email address by Saturday, April 30th
and I will send them to you, free of charge!
