One of my favorite clients from down under, Cecelia, recently had a super fun Shark birthday party for her son Jake. It is such a thrill to work with Cecelia, as she comes up with the greatest little details to add to her birthday parties and has such great presentation! We changed our red and blue shark set to navy/purple blue and grey for her event.
On top of having some really spectacular decorations, Cecelia also made a whole bunch of great activities for the kids. They had a sharky splash day where everyone ate lots of great food and got really WET!
I just love all the creative shark theme desserts–the shark fin cupcakes and shark pudding cups are too cute! The shark cake that matches the printables is also a hoot.
And any good party starts with a basket full of towels and sunscreen; being the good hostess she is, Cecelia had this detail all ready for guests at the party, even in the party theme.
The kids look like they had a blast!
The party favors are one of my favorites–shark fins for the kids’ backs and personalized visors for their day in the sun. Cecelia also lovingly wrapped up some bubbles and other treats for the kids and tied them up to take home.
I think Jake was one happy (and wet!) birthday boy!
The shark birthday party printables are available in our shop here.

What an ingenious and eye-catching idea to pop little shark fines on the top of those cupcakes - a real accent to set the theme - love it.
