It's time to start saying NO to single use items. Together we can do better! 🌎 Send me a PM when you're ready for reusable children's party items for your STL-area shin-dig.

Website coming soon. ☺️

Happy 4th! We love 🇺🇸 and the 🌎 and are proud that our little business has already saved 910 single use items from our nation's landfills.

What's your favorite National park?

Good morning all you Eco party people! 🍃

Big announcement from our tiny new business. For a variety of reasons, we're going to be calling ourselves The Wish Workshop going forward (before we get too far down this road).

A "workshop" is a more accurate description than "party closet", because a lot of the decorations are handmade rather than just procured and stored. The kids are already calling our basement work area "The Wish Workshop". 🥰

Now for the "Wish" part of the name: In addition to the birthday Wishes we are working hard to help come true, one gigantic "Wish" of ours is for a planet with less waste.

We believe celebrations can be spectacular without being a burden to our beautiful Earth. 🌎

This is why many of our decorations are handmade from pre-loved materials, and our dishes and linens are washed and cleaned (by us!) between every celebration. 🤩

My kids love making wishes on dandelions (you should see our yard in the spring 😆), and I thought making the dandelion with stars helped represent the magic we help create.

The colors are all nature-inspired to show our love for the planet, and they're also vibrant just like our parties.

Now back to building that website so we can really get this party started and show you what we've got. 🥳

In the mean time, if you're dreaming of a party in one of the following themes, please send a PM to inquire 😊 Porch pickup rentals and full service setup options available!

✨Princess Tea Party
✨Rainbow Dream
✨Ice Princess
✨Dragon World

Thanks for following along on this journey with us!

Nothing but smiles and giggles from the little vikings who attended this Dragon party last weekend. 🐉

All items are available for porch pickup rental (DIY setup) or full service delivery/setup. Coordinating food/serving table also available.

The best part is we clean up all the dishes and linens! Just return them dirty in the bus tubs provided, and then relax. 🍹

Send PM to inquire.

Last minute inquiry for party dishes - got them packed up and ready to go!

Service for 40. Reusable plates, bowls, cups, cutlery, napkins, plus a few serving dishes to coordinate with their pirate party decor.

Party guests scrape their dishes and place them in the bus tubs. Used linens go in the mesh bag provided. We do the rest.

Happy kids + Happy Host + Happy 🌎 = ❤️🥳

I'm still here!

Been MIA on this page for a bit. Posts will get more regular once I have the website up and am ready to fully launch Norahbean's. For now, I'm working on a couple of custom parties and also renovating my workspace in the basement. 🙃

Here's a sneak peak of what I'm working on now!

Thanks for hanging in there with me. Awesome, SUSTAINABLE kids' party rentals are around the corner! 🧚
