Monster Birthday Party Decor

I had such a blast planning Matthew's 4th birthday party!  Thanks to Pinterest, I found such great ideas for the decorations and themes for a monster party.  I have to give a big shout out to my Mom who helped me with all the "hand mit" monsters, and the Kleenex utensil boxes.  I loved how all the details and colors came together.  Such a fun party for a 4 year old boy who loves monsters!

Some of the "hand mit" monsters...I found most of them at the Dollar Store, Walmart, and Target...

A view of the table.  The "cake stand" is just a box from the basement with black and white chevron fabric over it...

The awesome cake by my friend Kynda!  The top part is chocolate with cookies and cream filling, and the bottom layer is vanilla...

A close-up of the monsters on the cake...

One of the printable place mats...

I used a circular punch out on scrapbook paper for more color on the table...

Found these cute monster ice cream or cereal bowls...

I even had water bottle labels!

The kitchen table.  Notice the black and white striped straws to go with the theme?  Loving all the fun straws you can get right now...

Closer view of the Kleenex monster utensil boxes...so fun!

Ready to party! (I love how Matthew looks so thrilled in this picture..)
