Heavy Metal Fourth Birthday Party

Heavy Metal Fourth Birthday Party

These aren't professional shots but I figured I'd share a few photos of our son's heavy metal fourth birthday party in case there's anyone out there trying to plan a party for their mini hesher! Our amazing friend Nilo created a logo for Gram's band, Frozen Eyeball (yes, he made up that name.) Since his grandpa owns a guitar/music store, he has literally every instrument and a legit mini band set up. We talked to him about what he wanted to do for his birthday and he wanted to have a Frozen Eyeball jam session. We set up a legit garage band practice space and let the kids go to down with the amps plugged in and turned up to eleven

Heavy metal tee + mix tape cookies by our favorite cookie artist: Raechal's Cookies
I made the Frozen Eyeball cake with this round cake mold
Meghan Miniello and I tag-teamed the signage
We set up a Frozen Eyeball merch table with merch made at Sticker Mule
Nilo made that Heavy Metal Activity Book for Gram's baby shower and we're now putting it to really good use!

Maybe that'll give you a few ideas if you're going to throw a heavy metal party too, ha!
