Princess Party Ideas For Girls

No Princess Party would be complete without elegant gowns, lots of sparkly jewelry, diamond tiaras and some dazzling makeup. But how do you put it all together?

Dollar stores and Big Box stores all have extensive party sections where you can buy inexpensive costume jewelry by the armload for very little money. But to make it even more fun, and if you have the time, check out flea markets and antique shops to pick up cheap costume jewelry, too. The girls will get a kick out of draping themselves in 'real' diamonds and rubies!

For the dresses you can start with your local thrift shop and find lots of dress up clothes, fake fur pieces and feather boas. Look for sparkly shoes and handbags, too.

As for hair and makeup, save yourself the hassle. Here's a couple of options you can consider:

Pick up some cheap makeup and hair extensions and bring in a couple of high school girls to take care of hair and makeup.

Or go a step further and contact a local photographer or party planner. Princess Parties are always a popular theme and most party planners and photographers have some type of package where they'll provide costumes, decoration, hair and makeup, and maybe even the cake!

Your little princesses will spend most of their playtime getting all dolled up in their princess costumes and having their hair and makeup done. And then there's picture time, and cake and ice cream. Depending on how long your party lasts you may only have time for a few games - and really, you'll only need one or two.

A treasure hunt is always a good idea for any children's party. And it's especially fun for a Princess Party because the prizes can be real things you'd find in a treasure chest - little tiaras and pearl necklaces and diamond rings.

A fashion show is fun, too. If you have a red carpet you can lay out for the girls to model their costumes then they'll really feel like little princesses.

Or pick up some craft supplies like glitter paints, feathers, and rhinestones and let each girl decorate a t-shirt or a pair of pink flip-flops.

It's easy to come up with game ideas for Princess Parties. Just take your traditional party games and make everything glittery and pink!
