Cookie Monster Birthday: Misc. Decor

Ok, so this should be my last post about the Cookie Monster birthday party! I just wanted to share some of the other various details. This post will be short on words. I think the pictures are pretty much self-explanatory :)

The goodie spread... with lots of COOOOOKIES!

Of course, we had to have a cookie cake. For one thing, it IS a Cookie Monster party. Also, Isaac prefers cookies to cake or cupcakes any day. He usually only eats the frosting from cakes :)

We got the cookie cake from Wal-Mart, and I ordered the Cookie Monster car here from Amazon.

I think I've mentioned before that I'm a sucker for candy and decorating with candy, so I had to use blue candy on the goodie table! Above are 2 vases (from Dollar Tree), blue ribbon, and 2" circles I made up in Photoshop, filled with Lindor truffles.. YUM!! I also had other candy dishes with some blue kisses and Dove chocolates. I don't think I got any pictures of them though.

Again, this WAS a Cookie Monster party, so we had 5 different kinds of cookies. Thanks to my mom and my friend Allie for helping me bake the cookies! They were fantastic!! The labels on the cookies were, again, 2" circles I designed in Photoshop and hot glued onto toothpicks.

The last detail was the balloons. Isaac loves balloons! We figured out that it was cheaper (and really more convenient) to buy balloons ourselves and one of the $20 party helium tanks from Wal-Mart.

 I got the big Cookie Monster balloon here from Amazon. It's incredible! By the way, he's still floating around our house :)


I hope you've enjoyed my Cookie Monster party posts! It really was soooo much fun to do!
