The last project we did for Melody’s Frozen birthday party was a wooden 4 we painted. I did this last year, and I thought it was such a cute and easy idea to add a bit more personal decor. I painted like the picture frame, and I displayed it along with all of her other decor. It was really easy to do, and we actually keep it displayed in her playroom with her princess stuff!
This is another craft Melody was able to help with for her Frozen birthday party. Like most parties, I made a pictures frame to frame a picture of her in either Frozen attire or with Anna/Elsa/both. For her help, I used tape to maker off the middle where she did NOT need to paint. I had her paint the top silver and the bottom blue. Once dry, I remove the tape and I painted the white middle.
Like all events, a shirt was required for Melody’s Frozen birthday party. I was able to sneak out to Hobby Lobby safely during the pandemic to get a shirt, then I used heat transfer vinyl I had on hand. I let Melody pick the design, and we went with it!
One of the crafts Melody was able to do herself for her birthday party was a painting of Elsa. I had intended for this to be much, much bigger and on a larger canvas, but it did not work the way I planned. So I went with a smaller canvas, and it worked out perfectly.
Just like last year, I made a Happy Everything attachment for Melody’s Frozen birthday party. I could not find a snowflake I loved and would stand out on the serving dish. So instead I bought a blue glitter wooden 4 from Hobby Lobby. Like last year, I hot glued velcro to the back of the 4. Then I attached it! Super easy to do with just about any occasion.
My original plan for Melody’s cake at her Frozen themed birthday party was to do an Elsa cake similar to the Snow White cake I did last year. However, she said she didn’t want that. She wanted a sheet cake from Publix, but they didn’t have the exact one she wanted, so I opted for cupcakes. I bought some snowflake edible toppers a while back that I did use on some of the cupcakes, but I did make a few toppers too using my Silhouette Cameo.
Like all parties, I made a banner for Melody’s Frozen birthday party. I used my Silhouette to make the banner and went a different route than usual. I opted for circles in a blue glitter cardstock for the background. Then I used a free Frozen font I found online and cut that using white glitter cardstock. I also included snowflakes on each side of Happy. I could not use regular glue for this project. It didn’t handle well to the glitter. Instead I used hot glue. It took some time, but it worked.

What started out as very simple party favors turned into something a bit more elaborate in true Brittany fashion. As you can see, Melody had a Frozen themed 4th birthday party. The idea was to have snowflake wands for all the kids. While we did those (and you can see the how to below), since there were only 4 kids including Melody plus 2 babies, I also incorporated a bit more since I had the room to spend more. Check it out below.
Melody’s birthday party this year was at night instead of during the afternoon like parties past. So I felt like food needed to be handled slightly different. Since it was from 5-7, I knew I needed to serve dinner food as well as the dessert food I had planned. My original idea of her party included more kids, more people, less food, and all desserts!
For Melody’s Frozen birthday party, we focused a lot on snowflakes. This worked well because I was able to find a lot on clearance after Christmas, and it was fitting for Frozen too. One of the things I had Brad make using his 3D printer was a snowflake banner. He used white filament (we had clear but that was a disaster that I will explain when I tell you all about the favors). I had him use two different size snowflakes for variety. The big issue we had was the twine. The holes in the snowflakes where too small for the twine I had. I ended up using sewing thread which was far from ideal but it worked for the party. The banner was cute and added a little touch to our living room since we had no other party decor in there.
