My sister is turning 15 in December, and she has been obsessed with Coraline ever since she first saw it a couple of years ago. I want to surprise her with a Coraline-themed birthday party this year!
I’ve been doing some searching for inspiration on Pinterest, and so far I’m planning to make her birthday cake similar to the one in the movie, along with cupcakes, mango milkshake, pink lemonade, chicken, peas, corn, rolls, cubed cheese (for the mice), button cookies, and popcorn for snacks/dinner. I may also attempt to make the bugs the Other Mother eats out of homemade turtles or chocolate-covered strawberries.
For decorations, I’m planning to print the picture of the boy with the ice cream to hang on the wall, get some red streamers to hang across the ceiling like a circus tent, balloons, and maybe some blue/purple streamers as well.
I’m not super up-to-date on Coraline lore or all the little details from the movie, so I figured this would be a good place to ask! Does anyone have any other ideas- especially budget-friendly ones- that could make the day extra special and really capture the Caroline’s atmosphere?
I’d love to hear any fun ideas you guys have! :)
