How to Plan your own DIY Portal Party

How to Plan your own DIY Portal Party

Welcome to my Portal (2) Party! This theme is so much fun for a video Game Birthday, Baby Shower or Glow Party. Channel your inner Wheatley and learn how you can make your own DIY Portal Party for your event.

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

My Portal (2) party backdrop is a fun orange and blue combo of many different affordable items. Reusing the wheels from the Over the garden wall party, Orange and blue streams and simple while balloons I was able to create a organized chaos. Which I am Infact in love with. You can find the blue, orange and white table cloths from the Dollar Tree and well as the glowstick platters. Finish off the look with the Portal Party Alphabet Banner.

Party Table

I continued the blue and orange theme all the way down to the table cloth. I was able to achieve this look my cutting the table clothes in half. I decided to keep my decorations easy to copy, but if you have one please add any and all Portal (2) toys you have! I had silver place mats on hand which replicated the silver walls of the challenge rooms. I made sure to have square serving trays, keeping everything streamline.

If I were to recommend a time for this party I would say night! this party would be an amazing Sleepover theme! I used glow sticks in several of my decorations and even food which made for a great effect!

My Centerpiece

Now to what every DIY Portal (2) Party needs, A WHEATLEY! I made this super easy Wheatley piñata out of a Chinese lantern, silver tissue paper and this printable! You can make one too!
