DIY Cardcaptor Sakura Party

How to Plan your own DIY Cardcaptor Sakura Party

Hello everyone! Welcome to my DIY Cardcaptor Sakura Party blog! You can find all the printables in my shop or as a bundle on Etsy! Keep reading to see how I put my own party together on a super tight budget!

This post will be an overall summary of what went into designing and making the party come to life. If you have questions or want me to go into more detail on specifics, let me know in the comments and I would be happy to make a blog all about it. There will be another post showing where I got everything for the party so you can find it too.

Decorations

Backdrop

So many of my friends grew up with Card Captor Sakura (I was honestly jealous) because I was a Sailor Moon Girl. But this theme was so much fun from the research to planning to set up. I am falling in love! Sakura x Syaoran forever! But anyway, to the backdrop! I started with a pink Dollar tree tablecloth, Topped with a HUGE red poster board bow! Let me know if your interested in a tutorial, but it was honestly super easy. 2 Poster boards and hot glue. Throw in a gold star banner and my Card Captor Sakura Alphabet Banner and you have a great backdrop! Want to make it better? Add my printable Clowcards! I have 15 pages of cards just waiting for their new owners! 45 cards total. The best part is you get to use them again as décor in your everyday. 🙂

Party Table

Welcome to my super simple party table! All you need for this set up is a Red table cloth (Dollar Tree) and a lace table cloth! I thrifted this pretty floral one, its actually a curtain. I topped the table with some pink petal place mats from Michaels. It doesn’t get easier then 3 things. 🙂

Table Decorations

When I thought of Card Captor Sakura, I thought lace, and elegance and especially pink. It was easy to lean into a elegant tea party set up. Décor included several Kero plushies and Sakura Blossoms. Many of my platters and dishes are thrifted and I use as display items in my home regularly. My Tomoyo tart platter was actually from the Dollar Tree. If you look closely you can even see I used my own Manga as a platter! No manga was harmed in the making of this Party. lol. But it worked out so beautifully.

My Centerpiece

My Centerpiece is something I’m pretty proud of! I made this Card Captor Sakura Staff Wand! Its a printable from Megaceros on Etsy! It took a little while to put together but so worth it! I placed her in a candle stick holder and it couldn’t have worked out better!
