Here is the fun decor for the Muppet Party!!!!
Balloons add to make any party more fun. We chose red, black, and silver as the main colors to give it a Hollywood movie feel.If you notice in the background you can see Muppet parody movie posters I found.
This is my Bert game, I know it's not a Muppet, but I couldn't think of how to do some of the others. I made Puzzle pieces and hid them around the house. The kids had to find the missing pieces. and put them on Bert. It went really well. This project was maybe $2.50 for some butcher paper and poster board. I used crayons to color the pieces. It was super fun!!!
Don't laugh, this was my first cake ever!!! I think it turned out alright. I didn't want to buy Fondant, as it is super expensive for my budget. So I used Airheads it was my leftover Halloween candy. It was hard to roll out, even after I warmed it up a little. I did stick the candy in the freezer so it would hold it's shape a little better. I didn't have a circle cookie cutter, so I used a water bottle lid, and a lid to a jar of spaghetti. To get the silver which looks gray in the picture, I used some black food coloring and then took silver spray to try and get it more shimmery. All in all I think it worked out, and my son LOVED it and that is all that matters.

The ceiling was red and black stars that I cut out by hand, because I do not have a cricut machine. I got the silver by buying 1 bag of silver basket grass at the dollar store, and pulling out the strands to make it look like shooting star tails. $1.07 for wall and ceiling decor.
This is my Kermit the frog felt game. You take ping pong balls that I covered black with a Sharpie, (you could use black spray paint. it would be easier) You always think of these things in the after math. I bought black Velcro and stuck to the ping pong balls. I also used craft glue to put it together. The object of the game was to get the eyes on the Muppet so to speak. It was around $7.50 to make. I used 50% off coupons and used what I had around the house. Like ping pong balls.

This is stuff my husband had, or that I found at a second hand store. I stuck it on top of our T.V.
Here is the puppet show I made. I used bed sheets to make the ruffled top,and the curtains out of our bedroom. I used bar stools and a black sheet to make the stage. I used all the puppets we had on hand for the kids. They loved it. Cost free.

My brother in law had a game cube with the Muppet party cruise video game. So I took a smaller T.V. to use and made a gaming section for the guys, who get bored during a party, cost free
My signs were just painted paper with kids glue and silver glitter. Use what you have on hand is my motto. I hope this helps some of you guys with trying to find out how to make a party for cheap, and incorporating the Muppet's into it. For the food we decided to do pizza, nice and easy. I didn't take pictures of everything such as my Party Favors, and invites, but I will see what I can do. Bye for now
