Little Miss Mimi’s Carnival of Fun!

October 13th, 2009

I recently hosted a third birthday party for my baby girl.  She turned three.  We decided to throw her a carnival themed party filled with ‘build your own’ showbags, carnival games, pinwheels, popcorn and prizes.  The theme was loosely based on an aqua and red colour palette with a touch of yellow.  We mixed solid colours with stripes and spots to complete the carnival look.
