Ideas for Personalized Water Bottle Labels for a Child's Birthday Party

When you're planning the look of your child's upcoming birthday party, you'll likely be looking for cups, napkins, and decoration items that reflect the theme. A valuable way to make the party even more special is to order custom water bottle labels. While many companies use these labels when they provide bottles of water at trade shows and other events, some creativity and advance planning on your part can definitely make the party even more special. As soon as your child identifies the party theme that he or she wants, you can move forward with contacting a custom labeling company and start designing your labels. Here are some ideas to keep in mind.

Details About the Event

You'll likely want to peel off a label or two after the birthday party to keep in your family scrapbook, so it's especially important that the water bottle labels include specific details about the event. Make sure to include the date, year, and location of the party, as well as the theme or occasion being celebrated. For example, you might write, "Samantha's 5th Birthday Princess Party" or "David's 7th Birthday Mega Monster Truck Party."

Pick Graphics & Colors That Reflect the Theme

You want your water bottle labels to fit in with the theme of the birthday party, so give some thought to the design. For a princess-themed party, for example, you may wish to select a font that looks regal, or use graphics such as tiaras, magic wands, diamonds, and other sparkly objects around the label. Selecting a label in pink, silver, or gold will also likely suit these theme.

For a monster truck party, for example, consider graphic elements of flags, truck tires, monster trucks, and perhaps even a black-and-white checker style to reflect the checkered flag waved at motor sports events.

Include a Fun Element

Think about the games that you'll be hosting at the party and see if you can include some related element on the water bottle labels. For example, if you're playing a scavenger hunt, see if there's room to list 10 or 15 different items that make up the scavenger hunt on the rear of the label. Or, you might simply want to include a riddle or a joke that the children will enjoy reading. Another idea is to include the names of the attendees, provided that they've RSVPed early enough in advance of the party.
