We decided to go with a color theme of aqua green, turquoise blue and a light purple; which all complimented the Little Mermaid party decor Madailein wanted. In our living room I used crepe paper and balloons of similar colors and stretched them across the ceiling. I was going for the look of being under water!
To carry on the "Under the Sea" theme, my mom made adorable jellyfish out of paper bowls and curling ribbon. Such a super easy and frugal party decoration - and you can reuse the bowls if they are not too destroyed, lol! 
I debated on whether to make a cake or order a Little Mermaid cake from the bakery. With the amount of people coming to her party this year, I gave it my all and made a cake! Considering I am by no means a professional cake decorator, I was proud of my cute Under the Sea cake!!
The hit of the party was the surprise visit from Ariel! If you live in the Northeast Ohio area, I highly recommend Tiaras and Treasures for kids parties. Ariel did a wonderful job with the girls!
Party was a success and we had a very surprised and excited little girl that day! :D
Happy Crafting (and party planning!)
