This is a kid party theme for the "girlie" girl, so get out the
make-up and hair curlers, combs and barrettes and have some fun!
It's all about glitz, glamour, and getting gorgeous!
Transform your
party girls into divas with your own beauticians and make-up artists.
~ Kid Party Theme for Fashion Makeover Party ~
Enlist the aid of neighbors, babysitters, or other young girls who are comfortable doing
"hair and make-up". (My teenage nieces were perfect for this job.) They will be
the "beauticians" to perform each guest’s makeover. The little girls love being
made up by the big girls, who really know their stuff!
Or, ask a professional or someone who sells Mary Kay Cosmetics or similar
products to come do make-over for the girls, local beauty schools...
This kid party theme requires lots of mirrors around so girls can check their progress.

Fashion/Make-over Party Cakes -
Cool Sunglasses Cake - Bake a 9 x 13 cake and freeze it. Cut
it into the shape of sunglasses. Frost the cake a bright color like pink or blue
and use complementary colored sugar sprinkles, say purple or yellow, to accent
the rims of the glasses.
Crazy Hair Barbie Cake -
Tease and color the hair of a Barbie doll to look funky, place on the cake and
decorate around her with mini hair brushes, combs, barrettes, shampoo - you’ll
find these in a Barbie accessory pack.
~ Kid Party Theme for Fashion Makeover Party ~ Fashion/Make-over Party Decorations -
"Welcome to Elizabeth’s Beauty Parlor"
sign can be hung on the front door or another prominent
place. Make a backdrop with small white Christmas lights, stars, streamers and
flowers. This can be used later when you take glamour shots
of your party guests "after" make-over results. Or make it simple with this ready-made
birthday party canopy.
Another great idea for this kid party theme is to make "Miss
America" sashes for each guest from 2 inch wide satin ribbon. Write each girl's name on
them with silver or gold glitter paint. Hang over their chairs at the
party table.
Set up the table with a fancy tablecloth and colorful
plastic marguerita or champagne glasses. Add curly gold ribbon around the
stems. Add a slice of lemon to each glass to make it festive and serve
lemonade, punch, or ginger ale for a party beverage. Make a fruit salad in a cut watermelon bowl as the
centerpiece (see more recipes below). Use ring pops as napkin rings.

Fashion Make-over Costumes -
The invitation states to wear your best dress or
dress-up clothes, so guests will come in their own dress-up clothes. For
additional party fun, collect dresses, prom gowns, bridesmaid dress, skirts, blouses,
scarves, high-heeled shoes, ribbons, shawls, hats, gloves,
fluffy boas,
and costume jewelry,
to create your own "glamour" box. Secondhand stores, yard sales, relatives,
friends, and your own closet are excellent sources for dress-up items.
Hang on a clothes rack and let party
guests pick their favorite outfits. To make clothing fit, just
pull the fabric snug and use clothes pins to hold it. Don’t forget those fancy
"Miss America" sashes in keeping with your fashion kid party theme. Let each girl wear one over her dress-up outfit. Provide a full-length mirror for guests to admire their new "look".
Once the girls are elegantly attired, give them the
opportunity to dance around to the music. This is a perfect photo op for you. Use a Polaroid or digital camera so you can send home a photo with each
guest. Or, send someone out to the one-hour photo with film so you can send home
the before and after pics with your guests.
Lots More PRINCESS COSTUME Ideas....
Fashion Show: When all the make-overs are complete, the
girls can don their sashes, put on some music and stage a fashion show. Make a
red carpet catwalk on the floor. Videotape it so they can watch themselves later
and you’ve got a one-of-a-kind memory to save!
Your never know what will happen when the videotape starts rolling. This kid party theme brings out the best in little girls.
At my daughter’s party it was a beautiful sunny day so guests
decided to go outside in their frilly dresses and make-up and play on the jungle
gym, lie in the hammock, and climb trees!

Fashion Make over Party Activities -
Make-overs: Have your "beauticians" set up their make-up
and hair paraphernalia in one area. Each guest will be given a special hairstyle
as well as a facial make-over.
Manicures: Provide several colors and shades of nail polish
available for guests to indulge themselves.
Jewelry Making: While the other girls await their
turns for make-overs, have a large table set up nearby with various types of beads
and string so they can make their own necklaces and bracelets.
Variation: Make
edible jewelry
from cheerios, fruit loops, Cracklin’ Bran, etc.
Funky Make-over: Add colored fake hairpieces or spray-on
haircolor and brightly colored hairclips for a really crazy make-over. Give each
girl a packet of hair stuff: gel, hairclips, elastics,
hairclips with colored braids,
and let
them do up their hair...craziest wins a Barbie with colored hair. This is a fun
Glamour Shots -
Before and After Shots. Take polaroid pics of each party guest before and after the
make-over and let them take them home as a memento of a great time. Take a
group shot, too and send it home with the Thank You note.

Don’t forget to give them their "Miss America" sashes when they
leave!
Make-and-Take Party Favors:
Make-up Mirrors Craft - Supply a small plastic hand mirror for each guest. With a 1 inch foam disposable paintbrush, brush a layer of white glue onto the back of each mirror. A pre-cut length of sequinned trim can be laid out on the perimeter of the mirror. Decorate the rest with glitter and jewels. Dry thoroughly.
Lanyard Maker Friendship Bracelet Craft Kit
is a memorable party craft and favor. Or, check out this
Glamour Girls gummy candymaking kit
for a fun craft activity.
Decorative Headbands - Supply a colorful plastic headband
for each guest. Let each guest apply glitter and jewels to their headband.
Jewelry Trees - Buy small clay flower pots, spray paint
silver or gold and fill with plasticene. Comb your yard to find a short strong
twig with many smaller twigs branching off it - you’ll need one for each jewelry
tree. At party time, supply guests with colorful acrylic paints, glue and
glitter. Have guests paint their twig and set aside to dry.
Pots can then be personalized with acrylic paints. It’s a
good idea for each girl to write her name of initials on the pot in glue, then
sprinkle with glitter. When the twigs are dry, guests can stick them in the
plasticene in their pots.
Decorate a Straw Hat - Buy full size or small decorative
straw hats, and various colors of ribbon and silk flowers. Stand by with the
glue gun as guests create their own party hats.
"Before and After" Picture Frames - Cut out craft foam in
the shape of picture frames to hold the before and after make over pictures.
Have guests decorate them with foam flowers, buttons and glitter.
