dalek pirate party stencil décor
For my son Oliver’s 7th birthday party on a dalek pirate theme I enlarged
the stencil designs I created for the invitations and used them to make flags
and other items for the party..
I made one large and three small flags with our dalek jolly roger design..
The large flag and two small flags were put up in our back yard,
and one small flag we put up at our front gate.
I used lightweight black poly-cotton for the flags, and gold spray paint
for the stencil designs.
I made a backdrop to hang up with a (almost) life-size dalek stencil..
It rained on the day of the party, so we hung the dalek backdrop indoors
in our dining room..
I stencilled a T-shirt for Oliver to wear – he wanted to ‘be’ a dalek!
I used special T-shirt spray paint for this, which is machine washable and everything..
I also re-used the stencil from the invitations for the party favour bags
which the kids took their booty home in..

The flags turned out particularly good. He looks so very, very serious.
ReplyDeletethose look really great! who knew spray paint would work so well on fabric??
ReplyDeleteWow! What a party! It took me a few days to go through it all, I'm thinking adapting a few of these to a unit at school, thanks for sharing all the great details! I can't wait to read about your next party. :O)
