After six parties, I’ve come up with quite a few DIY party decorations that can work not only for birthday parties, but also for baby showers, graduation parties and more. I’ve made all of the Circus’ party invitations using PicMonkey so that I can easily customize them to her and her party’s theme.

By the time, I’m done with all the floors, it’s already dry where I started.
