My birthday is July 6th and Kevin’s is July 9th. Last year Kevin threw a surprise party for me (I had never had one!) complete with streamers and Hello Kitty paper goods. Were in LA for Kevin’s birthday last year for a YouTube convention, but it worked out perfectly because his company was having a party the night of this birthday. This year we are planning on having a joint-party. I put together a little inspiration board to help me plan the party.
The color palette is going to be mint green (Kevin’s favorite color) and yellow with gray (maybe silver, I haven’t decided yet). I plan on making a “logo” of sorts that includes our silhouettes and ages. I will post this as soon I make it.
I’m thinking we’ll do finger-foods and fresh summery beverages. I also want to make a fringed tissue paper backdrop and set up my trusty T2i as a photobooth. Maybe make a few props?
Any suggestions on what to serve or how to decorate?
