1st Birthday Decorations
You will want your 1st birthday decorations to look great but there is no need for you to splurge on your baby’s first birthday party to make it a fun and an unforgettable moment. Though your baby will not have a clue on what the fuss is all about, you still need to document the whole event in terms of pictures and videos for your baby to see and appreciate years from now. 
One way of making your baby’s first birthday memorable is by carefully planning the decorations. You can go about it easily by purchasing ready-made themed 1st birthday decorations. You have a wide option in this category as there are so many themed decorations available in the market today. If your baby’s favorite character is Elmo, you can decorate your home ala Sesame Street. Put up a banner that says Sesame Street and a birthday greeting for your baby written on the same banner. Decorate parts of your house with Elmo Foil balloons and latex balloons in red, yellow and green. You can purchase Elmo paper plates, cups and napkins too for a more Elmo-ish effect. Your choice for a theme party is extensive. You just have to pick the right theme that best suit your baby’s temperament or current likes. If your baby is a cute little pixie, a fairy-theme party would be perfect. If your baby boy is a huggable baby bear, think of a zoo-themed party. You should not go overboard on decorations though as it is impractical to throw a lot of money on 1st birthday decorations that will only be used once.

One option for a great and inexpensive party décor is to select several pictures of your baby and have them enlarged. Frame the pictures on boards using glossy colored papers and lots of cut-outs and glitters for effect. Put up the pictures on the walls and hang them randomly. As a game for the older kids (and adults) have them guess the age in months of your baby in the pictures. Another bright idea is to decorate the room with your baby’s favorite stuffed toys. You can use them as centerpieces for the tables. You can also use framed pictures of your baby as centerpieces too. Why not have a tarpaulin made with your baby’s picture collage as theme? Hang the tarp on a wall or even out in the garden if the party is outdoors. An inexpensive way to decorate the outdoors is by decorating every possible area in the backyard with colorful balloons and streamers. For a baby girl, use balloons in different shades of pinks and lavenders. Tie attractive and glittery ribbons on the balloons for a more interesting play of colors and effect. For baby boys, blues, reds and whites are perfect color choices. There are available balloons, paper plates and cups with a large number "1" on it. Centerpieces with variations of "You are 1 hooray!" are also available in party supply stores. However, do not be limited by ready-made first birthday decors as hand-made and personal decorations are more meaningful. There is no need for you to slave many hours in decorating your home. The important thing is that you capture (in pictures, videos and other mementos) the essence of the first birthday party for you and your baby to look back too in a few years time.
