Peter Pan party!

When I was little, I 100% believed in Peter Pan, so my heart skipped a beat when I spotted the Peter Pan birthday party that artist Merrilee threw for her three-year-old son Atticus. How amazing is the illustration she did for the invitation?

i can't even begin to guess how many times i watched Peter Pan as a child so this is just about the best idea ever for a birthday party.

Very creative!

GracefulElegance said...

I was obsessed with Peter Pan when I was little. I played a lost boy when I was in 5th grade...hah really wanted the part of Wendy, but sadly it went to an 8th grader! :-) Love the party idea!

oh. my. gosh. i LOVE the kid in the Michael costume complete with stuffed bear. LOVE.

Rebecca said...

how fun. we have a birthday coming up this week and this really inspires:)

K @ Blog Goggles said...

Aww! Can I throw one of those now? I'm just a little bit older. :)

our little love nest said...

I positively adore the invite and think that party idea is brilliant. So cool of you to share this with us!xo

wonderful! the kids in costumes and the invitation are delightful.
why do I think this would be a funny idea for a 40th birthday party?

I was at a 7yr old girl bithday party. She had as a surprise, Pony en FĂȘte, is a company that offer the service and bring a pony and other small animals to the party.
The kid's get to ride the pony, brush it. I though it was original and the kids loved it! She had a cake made with the theme of Tinker Bell, it was made by a bakery, it was beautiful, and everything on the cake was edible (insect and other little creatures). It brings the kid out of me! Was a realy nice party.

Cute!

Joanna Goddard said...

ha, very married--i love the tinkerbell with the little belly!!!

Jillian said...

Very cute! I've got an idea for a more adult-centric party over at my blog. :)

Nicole Marie said...

so cute! i absolutely loved peter pan! i can still sing all the songs!

Lindsey said...

Um, firs of all, I love Peter Pan, secondly, I LOVE that Pan print up there, and thirdly, I am obsessed with the name Atticus (but the husband hates it. Bummer when it comes time to name a son).

If I can brag a bit, and if you're interested, check out the watercolor my student just did of Peter Pan at http://thedryingrack.blogspot.com

Jess said...

what a great idea! I love this :-)

Sal said...

What a marvelous idea! The cute is coming off those be-costumed kiddos in WAVES.

D. Marie said...

OMG how cute are all those kids. I still love tinkerbell! But I have two stepdaughters to be...so I can get away with buying the Tinkerbell movie for them!

Same New Story said...

Aww this is adorable- and her little boy makes such a great Peter Pan!

joy refurbished said...

I love it! For me however it always was (and still is Alice in Wonderland). I can just imagine a party with adorable little kids dressed like all the characters of my favorite story ever. It makes me happy just thinking about it.

sara said...

Love that invitation!!

OIJOY PHOTO - the blog said...

too precious!

Dionne said...

Oh this is so adorable. What cuties!

pia said...

awesome! i wouldn't mind throwing a peter pan party myself!

Caitlin said...

ahh thats so cute! I cant wait to have kids so I can throw things like this. It's going to be awhile though haha

The Wanderers' Daughter said...

Wonderful invitation and theme. I can never get enough of the original book. JM Barrie is one of my great heroes.

Carolina Eclectic said...

AHHHH! I LOVE THIS!
How absolutely wonderful:)

rachel said...

i love the name atticus and this party is precious!

Amanda said...

We want to be like Peter Pan! We don't want to grow up!

thoroughlymoderntilly said...

Man! I got excited thinking it was a grown up party. I went by Tinkerbell for two years in college, and was amused at the prospect of reprising that role. Oh well, haha. Super adorable kid's party though! Oh, how I miss being a little one sometimes. :)

Abbey Goes Design Scouting said...

adorable!

lillie said...

oh gosh, adorable! i was SUCH a huge peter pan fan (and believer) when i was a kid. i can still sing all the words to the Mary Martin version of the film. love it!

The Never Fairy said...

Very cute! Make sure to check out THIS Peter Pan, too!

Allie said...

So darling. I'm a bit Peter Pan obsessed as well. I can't wait to have kids and read them that story.

wecouldgrowup2gether said...

Eugene Sarang said...

This drawing is wonderful! And the idea is pretty fantastic too (: I don't think anyone ever REALLY grows up, do you?

rachel said...

I totally believed that I was Wendy when I was growing up! I still have the thimble that I carried everywhere.

I'm a failed parent and I don't even have kids yet.

Carissa said...

Extra points to the parent who just sent their kid in jam jams with a teddy bear. Simple and in character.

Jane Flanagan said...

Tinkerbell is priceless! There's something about little girl's bellies that makes me grin!
