With his little brother Luca (left) and cousin (will) standing infront of the Pirates cave that Grandad built.
To get the party started we had everyone dress up, even Dad. I bought Pirate necklaces for everyone to wear and had plenty of hats, swords and eye patches.
This was the dress up table, every child received a pirate head scarf, pirate necklace, tattoos and an eye patch
I had a black eyeliner also for those wanting mustaches and scars on their faces
The kids got to put on their own tattoos
Yummy Pirates Rum (Punch)
The yummy food table.
These cute water bottle wraps were from Etsy, worth every cent.
Pirates Teeth (Caramel Popcorn)
Buried Treasure cupcakes with candy crosses ontop
Basic Butter Biscuit with a Jaffa in the middle (Captains Eyeballs)
Red & Green jelly shots (Sharks Blood)
Table Centrepiece
The treasure bottles I made with a treasure map, shells, sand & a cork & twine wrapped around the neck of the bottle.
The Treasure box was found in a craft store, after soaking it in coffee made it look a little more aged.
I finished it off with some pirate money, treasure maps, jewels, gold nuggets and more.
Red & Black baloons were everywhere, they looked great.
We had lots of inflatable palm trees and parrots, these really set the scene
The Pirates cave that Grandad built. The kids had a ball in there, we had light up skeleton lanterns and a scary skull mask inside.
Pirates Plank that Grandad also built for us. The kids had alot of fun on this. We made up new ways for the kids to cross the plank, split the teams up of boys and girls and they had to try and pass each other without falling into the water.
All the little pirates ready to play 'Pass the Parrot'.
All of the parents did such a wonderful job of dressing their kids up, some were busy cutting and sewing and even gluing costumes together. Their efforts paid off because they all looked great.
