The current state of birthday celebrations may be unique, but that doesn\u2019t mean it can\u2019t be fun! Quarantine birthday parties, or even socially distant celebrations, can still be meaningful, even if they aren\u2019t the birthday parties we\u2019re used to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Are you looking for ways to make your birthday feel special<\/a><\/strong>? Or do you want to celebrate someone you love from afar? We\u2019ve got some awesome, simple ideas on how to make your quarantine birthday celebration an epic one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Decorate for your virtual party<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

While we\u2019re not able to spend time with our friends and loved ones in person, a birthday celebration<\/a><\/strong> is still a great reason to get everyone together virtually! There are a lot of different platforms you can use to host your party, whether it\u2019s Skype, Zoom, Houseparty, Google Hangouts, or something else. Choose what works for you and send out a digital invitation to all of your guests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next up is decorations<\/strong>! We\u2019ve got some ideas that are sure to impress. Use your favorite photos of the birthday boy or birthday girl to create canvas prints<\/strong><\/a>, photo tiles<\/strong><\/a>, or tabletop panels<\/strong><\/a>. Customize these with some of our silly or stunning embellishments to make them feel even more personalized and special! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alternatively, you could take advantage of our free monthly prints offer<\/a><\/strong> when you download our photo app and create one-of-a-kind photo banners to place behind you when the camera rolls! If you are feeling extra crafty, you could even create a banner using colored popsicle sticks to “frame” your prints!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are feeling a little more creative, how about making a DIY Photo Letter Name for your zoom-party backdrop? Just stick photos<\/strong><\/a> of the birthday-celebrant onto papier-m\u00e2ch\u00e9 \/ wooden letters that spell out their name. Your birthday party guests will enjoy looking at these favorite memories \u2014 from highlights of the past year to hangouts with friends – plus your Guest of Honor gets to keep them afterwards!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A large personalized poster<\/a> <\/strong>would make an awesome addition to a birthday parade, too. If your loved one is in driving distance, plan for friends and family members to drive by their house at the same time! Honk, display posters, play some music, and decorate your vehicle to make sure they feel the birthday love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What about creating a photo banner<\/strong><\/a> or photo wreath using 6×4 prints<\/strong><\/a>? You can choose photos of you and the birthday boy or girl, as well as their family, friends, pets, and more. And if it\u2019s your birthday, make one for yourself! It\u2019s a really fun way to take a walk down memory lane, as well as make some sweet d\u00e9cor for your home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Add some bows and streamers and you\u2019ve got an spectacular wall display (that doubles as a video call background!), perfect for any birthday party. These are fun and simple ways to make anyone feel, despite the unusual circumstances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Feeling time poor? <\/strong>Try downloading one of these virtual video call backgrounds to boost the party vibe! You could even pretend you are in that far flung party destination you always dreamed of!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
