DIY Star Wars Birthday party {robes & jedi sticks}
This post may contain affiliate links. Please see our disclosure here.
This is our first blog post and it’s a bit strange but I figured what better way to enter the blog world, then with Stars Wars as our debut. My son turned five this past weekend and he loves Star Wars so we decided to throw a DIY Star Wars birthday party full with DIY robes and jedi sticks. I purchased my printable Star Wars templates already made from Shindig Parties etsy shop. She sent me everything from banners, name tags, bottle covers, characters, logo’s and so much more. It was well worth the small amount of money as it saved me time creating my own. These pictures were taken with my cell phone so they are not the best quality.
The kids loved having their own robe and light saber . I made the robes from fabric at walmart ($3 a yard) with some roping (craft dept) and cut a hold in the middle for their head. EASY EASY EASY!
I wrapped my son’s in a $5 dollar silver twin sheet from Walmart & used silver ribbon to tie it together.
We had a special guest join us just in time for “jedi light saber training”. The darth costume is a black nasty plastic shower curtain for 3$ from Walmart and a $14 mask from party store! The kids thought he was real. I think he was the hit of the party!

Thanks so much! Good luck with your Star Wars party 🙂
can you explain how you did the Jedi robes? I really want to do this for my son’s party. Super cute!
looking for patterns for the jedi robes – can you offer any direction with how you made those?
Thanks!
Hi, I basically just bought the soft velour fabric and cut a hole in the middle for their head and bought rope as a belt (they just tied it around themselves) 🙂 VERY simple!!
