We’re sharing planning tips and our favorite resources to pull together a Little Man themed celebration with the most adorable mustache and tie details. First, we’re showing you how to shower a mommy-to be with a bow tie theme, then we have the most adorable mustache motif for a Little Man birthday party.
Baby Shower
Expecting a baby boy? Shower the mommy-to-be with a Little Man themed baby shower with bow ties galore!
Keep it casual and center the celebration around the snack table! A few little details really bring a party together. A personalized backdrop is a simple way to make a big statement and a banner is a great way to tie in the baby’s name. Lay the foundation for an adorable buffet witha personalized gingham table runner.
Incorporate the blue, green, and gray color palette in the food and decor. Use coordinating bowtie place card holders to label everything.Serve cucumber water from a drink dispenser with a bowtie around the top. Isn’t that a cute little detail?
Party flags add a little more fun to the celebration when used on straws and sandwich toppers. Spinach salad and pinwheel sandwiches are perfect pick-up foods for this color scheme, too.
Finally, set some favors right in the center so guests don’t forget to take one home! These neck tie favor bags bring the whole theme together in an adorable package featuring real ribbon ties!
Birthday Party
Celebrate your baby boy’s birthday with a “Little Man” themed party! A mustache motif is another fun way to create a Little Man theme.
A photo booth is a fun birthday party activity for guests of all ages! Here is a quick and easy way to set up a super cute photo booth for your party! Start with a personalized photo backdrop and add inexpensive curtain panels to either side to widen the photo area. These lime green curtain panels can be found at Lowe’s. They provide a great pop of contrasting color!
A kraft banner is a great way to display your little man’s name and after the party, you can hang it in his room as décor and it will be a sweet reminder of his party.
Next, set up your photo booth area with a small bookshelf to hold cute props, candy, favors & even milk jars filled with milk…perfect for making milk mustaches! You can drape a personalized table runner over the shelf display to add a little decoration.
Fill clear apothecary jars with colored candy to hold your props upright. These great mustache storage boxes are from Hobby Lobby and add height to the display. After the party, use them in your little man’s room to store small toys, photos, and keepsakes.
These mustache place card holders make it easy to label props, snacks, sweets, and favors. We’ll be sharing free printable labels soon!
We added a big chalkboard mustache and a giant balloon with tassels. Kids love these props! Their faces light up when they watch the balloon floating in the air and the pictures are priceless.
How cute are these tie favor bags? Again, these are perfect for any Little Man themed celebration. You can even get them personalized with favor tag stickers!
