Sick of trying to find the perfect farm-themed birthday invitations? Not looking to spend a lot of money on invitations for a child’s birthday party? I hear you!
I’m a frugal party planner, especially when it comes to birthdays my children won’t even remember. I made these invitations in Canva, printed them off, and with a little cutting and some glue dots I think they turned out pretty good.
Below I’ve written instructions for how to create your own easy and cheap barn invitations.
Our daughter’s 2nd birthday party was farm themed and I knew I wanted to make some type of barnyard animal cake to top off the day. I considered making a cow and a horse but my bright husband suggested a pig because you only need one color frosting for piping. Done!
We had to switch the party from Sunday to Saturday so I had one less day of prep. I have learned over time that keeping things simple is the smart way to go. See instructions below for how to create an easy pig birthday cake (or pig cake for any farm-themed occassion).
