Zion turned 8 years old on Saturday-can you believe it? It feels like we just celebrated his 5th birthday! Anyway, he wanted a Roblox birthday party and I panicked briefly because I am not well versed in Roblox and I could hardly find anything Roblox related to buy for the party.  I spent days researching and talking to the boys to learn more about Roblox…

Upon researching, I learned about how the Roblox characters changed their skin color and like the image shows above, the different colors are represented in a grid and then I got the idea to replicate it as a backdrop for Zion’s birthday party.  I love getting creative with backdrops and this Minecraft one I did for Zion last year is a fave!

And over 500 post its later, we have a Roblox backdrop, our own skin color changing grid. I have to be honest though,  it took a looong time and I kept asking myself why I didn’t choose something less time consuming.

But it was totally worth it! Zion loved it!

Thank goodness for Etsy! I was able to customize this invitation bought here and Z was excited to give them to his friends!

The hubs drew a Roblox character on this mini chalkaboard and I made a garland from foam, added some mini Roblox peeps and decorative honeycomb Lanterns and the mantel was ready for the party!

Etsy was a life saver in helping me to incorporate Roblox graphics. I bought these graphics from this etsy store as a pdf file, then printed them at home on adhesive paper. 

The balloons were a hit! I bought packages of balloons from the Dollar Store and each came with different shaped and sized balloons.

A local face painter-she did such a fantastic job. If you’re local, I highly recommend her. Check her out at Carnival Ink.

The bounce house was a hit!

I printed these Roblox graphics (bought from Etsy store mentioned above

) on cardstock paper, punched a hole in each, then tied each to a favor bag and voila! xx
