When my daughter turned three years old, we made her a 50's party.
We had a poodle skirt made for her, and I even found her some saddle oxfords. It was in September and I found her a white short sleeved sweater and I had it embroidered with a K on the left side. I had my sister give me all her old 45 records. I removed the original labels, and made new ones on my computer. They read as follows: Let's Rock and Roll at Kassandra Paulyna's 3rd Birthday Party. It had all the info on one side, and the other side listed my husband and I as the producers of the record and invited everyone to wear poodle skirts and leather jackets. I decided to decorate in red and black. I bought red table cloths and black center squares. For centerpieces, I bought a lot of coke glasses and crushed Styrofoam and tinted it pink with red food coloring. I put it in the glasses and glued three artificial carnations together to look like ice cream and put in the glass also. I bought artificial cherries and glued on top of the flowers and added some straws. They looked like ice cream sodas. I bought a candy mold in the shape of a jukebox and made plaster of Paris magnets and pins. We served hot dogs and hamburgers in plastic baskets and had a dance contest with the music from "American Graffiti" I could not believe how many moms went out of their way to make poodle skirts. My husband made a huge jukebox out of Styrofoam. I ordered jukebox shaped Mylar balloons, and made felt record shaped candy bags. I also bought music note shaped confetti and sprinkled them on the tables. It was an awesome party and everyone had a blast.
