I love the bright cheery colors and whimsical animals.  

I found some colorful yarn and circus-themed scrapbook cardstock and made this month-by-month photo banner (which turned out adorable if I do say so  myself). 

For our simple party favors, I went to a bazillion five or six stores and collected these small boxes of Barnums animal crackers.  Who knew they were in such short supply everywhere?  Then I used the same yarn and cardstock to make the triangular tags thanking the guests for attending the party. 

We also decorated with store-bought banners, balloons, paper lanterns, and honeycomb balls.

And the coolest decoration of all, the circus/clown-themed bounce house.  Hello?  Most fun ever. 

Next up, the FOOD.  🙂
