Strawberry Shortcake Birthday Party

The Strawberry Shortcake Birthday Party is so popular and so very sweet. Let's take a walk through Strawberry Land.

I'll share with you all the ideas and supplies you will need for this darling little party.

Strawberry Shortcake Birthday Party Invitations

Cut a strawberry shape out of red construction paper. Cut the leaves out of green construction paper.

Glue the green top on the strawberry. Use a black marker for the seeds.

Make a homemade envelope out of vellum. Fill the bottom of the envelope with green paper grass.

Write all your party info on the back of the strawberry and place in the envelope and seal with a strawberry sticker.

A really great idea for this party is to take a picture of your little one in her favorite Strawberry Shortcake outfit.

Glue onto red card stock and embellish with pink ribbons and strawberry stickers.


Strawberry Shortcake Birthday Party Costumes

Make Strawberry Shortcake hats for everyone to wear. Spray paint straw hats pink.

Stamp red strawberries all over the hats.

Tie a strip of red ribbon around the brim. Make a big bow out of green and red striped ribbon.

Hot glue onto the hat.

Cut strawberries out of red foam and embellish with little black jewels for the seeds. Add green foam for leaves. Hot glue the strawberry in the middle of the bow.

Start out with all your traditional Strawberry Shortcake Party Supplies here.

Your colors for this party are going to be red, pink, and green. You'll want to create a "Strawberry Land".

For your outside decor, tie red, pink, and green balloons on the mailbox. This lets everyone know where the party is.

Make strawberries out of thick poster board. Hot glue a garden stake on the back. Stick in the ground around the front entrance to your house.

Use green streamers that you have twisted together to look like vines. Hang on the ceiling. Intertwine flower garlands as well.

Wind greenery down the chandelier. Hang strawberries from it as well.

Borrow or rent fake trees and plants. Group them in the party area. If you want to add Strawberry Shortcake's friends (Orange Blossom and Apple Dumplin), add apples and oranges to the trees. You can find plastic ones and hang them by a ribbon.

Make red balloons look like strawberries by using a black marker for the seeds and green felt or tissue for the leaves.

Use green curly ribbon. Use helium in some balloons and air in others. Let the ones with helium float on the ceiling with long trailing green ribbon flowing down.

Let the ones with air just hang around on the floor. Kids just love to kick them around.

Use green tablecloths. You can make a Faux Cake for the centerpiece and serve cupcakes or a plain sheet cake.

Use anything that you have that is red, pink, or green. Strawberry candles are great. Just make sure little hands can't get to them.

You can also use your Strawberry Shortcake cake as your main attraction. Just place on a pretty pedestal cake plate.

Wrap green tulle around the base. Sprinkle pink flowers, greenery, and red plastic strawberries around it.
