We celebrated my daughter’s 9th birthday with an under the sea pool party.
Are you ready for some picture overload?
I love the color combination of the aqua and coral with the sandy-colored accents. Pinterest was a big help in fueling the inspiration and finding easy dessert ideas. This may be my favorite party yet.
For more information on how I made the coral candy, oyster cookies, or marshmallow pops, CLICK HERE to see our Under the Sea Desserts post. See HERE for details on how to make faux coral.
Happy partying!

ReplyDeleteI think you could do a boyish twist to this - deep sea diver party?
