This week, we went under the sea for my daughter’s 8th birthday with a nautical SpongeBob SquarePants party theme!

So our sweet friends threw a Tangled theme party for their 5-year-old Maddie. Because I am me, I inserted myself into the gift bag situation. Here's what we did (not a lot of photos in this post, but I wanted to list the resources in case anyone was looking for non-Party-City Tangled ideas.)

I used this iron-on image for the girls: And this one for the boys:We made Shrinky Dink necklaces for the girls from this printable on the Disney site. We strung them from pink leather cords I found at the craft store, and mounted them on cardstock printed with this image: For the boys, I sewed up some of Flynn Rider's arrows from this awesome tutorial (he used arrows to help him climb up the tower. You know, in case you forgot). I made tags from this image, printed onto card stock: All the kids got little pots of paint and mini canvases. I made tags for those with this image: All the kids also got a rolled up "Wanted" poster to color. And, finally, there were a ton of babies at the party, too. And each baby got one of these: Get it? Cuz the pub in the movie was called the Snuggly Duckling. I freeballed the pattern, just kinda making it up as went along. OK. The end. Holler if you have questions. Update: I've received some requests for the Snuggly Duckling image, so I posted it below.

This lil smokies recipe with little smoked sausages in a slightly spicy barbecue glaze is easily made in the crock pot, on the stovetop, or in the oven.  They are addicting and always a huge hit at parties.
