Super Mario Brothers Birthday Party

by Wendy Galaviz

Super Mario Cupcakes- Bake some cupcakes and go online and find some cute Mario clipart and make your own printable cupcake toppers. Just pull up your paint program and copy and paste the image over and over again on to an 8.5 x 11 image and then print it out. Cut the images out using a decorative hole punch and tape a toothpick to the back and stick down in the cupcakes.

Gold Coins- Spray paint paper plate gold and hang them from the ceiling with fishing line.

Gold Coin Snacks- Fill a bowl with chocolate gold coins. You can buy them from Walmart. Prop a food card next to it that say's "GOLD COINS".

Warp Pipes- Buy PVC pipe and spray paint it green. Add them as centerpiece decorations on the table.

Brick Blocks- Cover small cardboard boxes with brick paper.

Gold Question Mark Blocks- Cover small cardboard boxes with yellow paper and go online and find a clipart image of the question mark and print it out and tape to the front of the box.

Mushrooms- Take stryofoam white bowls that are sold at Walmart and cover them in red tissue paper and tape it. Use a hole punch and punch out some circles and tape those to the bowl. This will make your mushroom top. Then take some empty food cans and cover it in green tissue paper and sit the mushroom top on top of the green stem. These would make cute decorations to sit on the table.

Yoshi Eggs- Hard boiled eggs and the draw on some colored dots all over the eggs. If you just want them as centerpieces then try solid white Easter eggs from Oriental Trading and use a colored sharpie marker to color your dots on. Or you could just buy the polk-a-dot Easter eggs that resemble it and fill it with some candy and then add it to a large bowl with a food card propped up next to it that say's "YOSHI EGGS".

Boo Balloons- Take a white balloon and draw him on with a black sharpie marker.

Star Sandwiches- Use a star cookie cutter on your sandwiches.
