Homemade Mario birthday party

My baby girl had her 7th birthday party last Saturday.  SUPER FUN!  Seriously, I think John and I enjoyed it as much as she did.  I had trouble finding Mario themed party supplies, so we ended up making almost everything. It was a labor of love.

 Mario invitations...

Super and 1-up mushroom cupcakes...

 Balloon goombas (IT TOOK ME THREE HOUR TO MAKE THEM! UGH)

Mario stars...

Decorations colored by Porgie and Izzy...

Pin the mustache on Mario and coins made from yellow plates...

Homemade Boo pinata...

Hand stitched Mario and Luigi hats...

Yes it was a lot of work, but truly, it was so much fun.  Porgie and I worked on some of the projects weeks ahead of time.  She helped me plan almost everything.   All of the time and effort was totally worth it.  My baby girl had a blast.
