Bug Themed 2nd Birthday Party!
Looking for a cute + clever birthday theme for your child? Well, oh my word, we have found it! Look no further! Your little one will LOVE this bug themed party full of bug catching goodies, beetle juice, a “build-a-bug” station, bug shaped treats, + fun party favors! Sent in by Mindy + Crystal of Creative Juice, these talented ladies made even bugs look stylish with their cute displays and decorations.
Beetle Juice = so cute! The talented gals of Creative Juice cut up gummy worms and froze them in ice cubes! This would be fun with all sorts of candies to fit the theme of your party!
How clever are those CHEESE BEETLES?! Made with cheese rounds and cut up olives (now that’s a way to get the kids to eat olives)!
The treats at this party were bug-tastic! Starbursts were used to create the bugs along with Oreo crumbles and dyed coconut for the cupcake topping. Delish + oh so cute. And I especially love how a butterfly cutter was used for the watermelon on the fruit skewers! 
Here is a recap of this BUG THEMED BIRTHDAY PARTY!
