Let’s be honest, we all get a little nostalgic and sentimental when it comes to our birth year. The trends, music and movies made famous the year we were born will always be better and more popular than anyone else’s. Sound about right?
If you’re smiling to yourself right now and you have a big birthday coming up, we know you’re going to LOVE this laidback but super cool milestone birthday party idea!
Milestone Birthday Newspaper Invitations
Here at Sunshine Parties HQ, we love a good fun fact or two, so we had a blast compiling news clippings and fun facts from the years 1939, 1949, 1959, 1969 and 1979 to bring you these vintage newspaper birthday invitations and placemats.
Each invitation is complete with fun facts including historical news, general prices of things like cars and gas that year, popular songs and the world population. Your guests will love reading through all these interesting facts and no doubt will be surprised by a few!
We are currently stocking the following milestone birthdays in 2019:
- 40th birthday historical newspaper birthday invitation
- 50th birthday historical newspaper birthday invitation
- 60th birthday historical newspaper birthday invitation
- 70th birthday historical newspaper birthday invitation
- 80th birthday historical newspaper birthday invitation
Milestone Birthday Newspaper Invitations
If you are wanting to add a personal touch to your party décor or are celebrating at a restaurant we have matching milestone newspaper printable placemats, complete with some additional fun facts and figures, such as for 1979; 70s slang, life expectancy and various world leaders in power. This is an excellent conversation starter and a few facts will certainly have your party guests giggling.
We are currently stocking the following newspaper placemats:
- 40th birthday party newspaper placemats
- 70th birthday party newspaper placemats
Both the invitations and the placemats are 100% editable so you can make a placemat for any birthday celebration you wish, from 21st’s to 79th’s, the choice is yours! All you need to do is a little google research to find relevant fun facts (which is actually really fun and interesting) and simply type over the existing sample text!
The milestone newspaper theme could also be used at a corporate ‘birthday’ celebration where a company has hit a big birthday milestone and are having a luncheon or celebration. The placemats in particular would be a fun décor piece to help mark the occasion!
We know these will bring a whole lot of “I remember this!” moments for everyone invited to your special milestone birthday party.
