Disco balls, boas, push pop microphones, …I was recently asked to help add some fun and girlie details to a Rockstar Party, and I loved finding ways to incorporate rockin’ details while keeping the party sweet enough for a five year old! Pink and lavender were the requested colors- I added a touch of silver, a Pop Star Soda Bar and lots of fun with lights!
The backdrop was made using an art canvas. I drew a sketch of my design on the back, and then I punched holes in the canvas with a nail. Next, I put a string of clear lights through the holes as I went. Secure each light with a Glue Dot. I added paper tissue poms using Glue Dots to secure on front. Glue Dots are available by the box at craft stores.
Disco balls were strung with pink, lavender, and purple ribbons…and used to decorate the serving tables and the Pop Star Soda Bar backdrop.
I used smaller canvases (8×10) for the table signs and used the same method make the lighted signs. Orbs lit up the Soda Bar with a pink glow! Pink Soda, lavender ribbons, and custom labels add so much!
Stardust Doughnuts were gone in a flash! An EASY treat to serve…powdered doughnuts with a rock star wand!
The party favors were microphones made from push pop containers with custom labels and ribbons…and filled with pink and white candy.
Perfect for a Dance Party, too! I used many of the same ideas and designed a Dance Party the following week- GO HERE to see similar ideas for this theme. I hope you find some rock star inspiration!

For instance, we know hedgehogs don’t hail from Mexico- but when she fell in love with a festive-looking hedgehog at a local shop, we decided the hedgehog would make a perfectly fun party favor! So read on and enjoy- and hopefully you will find an idea or two that you can use for a Mexican-themed party or even a Cinco de Mayo celebration, too- and inspiration to incorporate ideas that make your party perfectly-suited for the birthday child!
CAMILLE’S CLUBHOUSE ~ Confectionery, Soda Shoppe, Spa
My daughter had lots of ideas of what she wanted to do to celebrate her 10th birthday! She wanted to have lots of cookies~ and have a soda shoppe ~ and set up a spa for nail painting! With so many ideas, I knew we should come up with something that would tie it all together. And, that is how Camille’s Clubhouse became the theme- the Clubhouse is where you can find lots of her favorite things! We sent invitations with a an insert that had a “password” that had to be unscrambled and brought to the party for “entry”. That was an easy way to get the guests involved before the party even started!
