Princess Invitations
You can really get creative and come up with a bunch of royal princess birthday party invitations. Just to get you going (and keep it simple), here's one of my favorite princess birthday party invitation ideas.
Use parchment paper or cardstock and write something like: "Hear Ye! Hear Ye! Her Majesty, Princess (kid name) of the house of (your last name) requires your presence at the celebration of the (*th) year of her birth, at our castle (address); date, time, RSVP to Queen and King (phone #); gowns, crowns and castles too, nothing short of a royal celebration will do!!" (If you want the kids to come in matching attire you can add "attire" in the invitation, perhaps saying "Princess Casual" or "Princess and Prince attire").
Then roll up these invitations and either tie them with a ribbon, put a sticker to close, or if you want to really be regal, seal them with wax. You can put the scrolls in empty toilet paper rolls with a sealed bottom, and add a construction paper cone to the top as if it were a castle. Then decorate and fill with sparkle glitter and confetti.

Princess Decorations
Here's an entire page full of Princess Pictures, posters, coloring pages, and all sorts of other imagery to help you create your own homemade decorations.
The dominant colors of your princess birthday party should be lavender, pink, purple, blue cream and silver.
First, you can start with a red carpet leading to your door. This'll really let the kids feel special. From the ceiling you can hang glittery stars from curly ribbons and colorful streamers. You can also hang these Metallic Foil Curtains in the doorway so the kids will feel like they are entering a ballroom. And, upon arrival you can throw some sparkle glitter on the guests to get them in the mood.
If the princess birthday party is at night, you can line the pathway to your house with brown lunch bags half filled with sand with a candle inside. The bags glow magnificently once you light the candles. For an added magical touch, you can decorate with white Christmas lights. Inside, you can drape colorful plastic table covers all over the ceiling to transform your living room into a charming ballroom. These Princess Wall Decorations are also great (and they can be removed after the party and used to decorate your child's walls...) Spread balloons all over your floor and if you use helium then have them decorating the ceiling. Put jewelry, earrings, bracelets, necklaces and all sorts of other royal gifts inside the balloons so that later when the kids pop them they'll find lots of surprises. On the day of the princess birthday party, you can buy fresh flowers and place them in vases around the house. And, transform your dining room chairs into thrones by taping gold and silver poster board onto them. Here are some excellent items to decorate your castle with...
Top Tip! Before you buy anything online, make sure to check out the Princess supplies being offered on eBay. Often, you'll find new supplies at a fraction of what they cost at the stores:

Costumes

A princess birthday party without a real princess dressed in royal attire? Hard to imagine... Here's a beautiful Homemade Princess Costume submitted to us by Marci K. from Topeka, IN. Marci provided how-to photos and a detailed writeup. It's designed especially for the birthday princess. |

OK, so now that your little princess is in costume, here are some ideas for getting the princess birthday party guests into some royal garb: Upon arrival, the girls can be given princess halos made of wire confetti with pink or purple ribbon wrapped around them. Or, you can prepare princess hats out of plane cone party hats with pink and purple tulle coming out through the top. To the bottom you can glue colored lace with plastic rhinestones. And what's a little princess without a wand? You can make them from skewer sticks with the tips cut off and cutout stars glued on the edge. Also check out this huge selection of Tiaras.
For the boys you can make crowns out of gold poster board and shields and swords also cut out of poster board and covered in foil. On these you can put their names as follows "Sir/Prince _______".
Princess Icebreaker Activities
Coloring Castle
This Cardboard Coloring Castle is an excellent Princess birthday party activity that'll keep the kids busy for hours.
Makeover Stations
While you're waiting for everyone to come, you can set up makeover stations that will also get everyone ready to look and feel royal. For example, at the fingernail painting station you can offer a couple of different colors for the kids to choose from and suitable stickers or glitter to jazz up the activity (allow plenty of time to let their nails dry…). Other ideas for stations can include a hair styling station, a lipstick and makeup station, etc.
Royal Necklaces
For the sake of simplicity, you can have the girls create their own tasty edible necklaces out of licorice string, fruit loops, cheerios, and gummy lifesavers.
Castle Picture Frames
Take popsicle sticks and glue to cardboard with a few rhinestones, glitter, sequins etc, and insert a picture of each child in their costume (using a Polaroid or digital camera). This is a great favor to take home.
Little Castles
You can have the kids make their own little castles. Take baby food jars clean them well and remove the label. You can give the kids colored papers to glue and decorate the outside of the jar. They can paint the lid with silver acrylic paint and glitter and glue on the top a silver Hershey's Kisses with their 'flags' waving-this then looks like a little castle. They can add more Hershey's kisses in the jar and take it home as part of their princess birthday party favors.
