Create the most gorgeous boat party invitations for your boat-themed party!
Wow your guests with a spectacular 3D paper boat that lists party details on its sails. All you need is paper, a bamboo skewers and a little glue. It takes some time to make these, but the payoff is huge. Your guests will be so excited to come to a party with an invitation this cool.
Best of all, they were very inexpensive to make. You just need paper and skewers. I already had both on hand.
Boat Party Invitations Tutorial
- Make traditional paper boats out of cardstock. (See video below)
- Print the party information on regular computer paper.
- Poke a bamboo skewer through it all.
- Glue a paper flag with your guest’s name on the top.
- Add a sticker or print a clipart anchor to the side of the boat.
I shudder to think of the postage cost. We hand-delivered ours.

Oh my goodness! These are so cute! I did a Hot Air Balloon themed party for July 4th, and I should’ve thought of something similar like this for the invites! These are brilliant! Gonna pin this for the next party!

Such a cute idea! Great detail in the invites!

I haven’t written instructions. You can make a basic paper boat, freehand the sails and use a wooden skewer to poke it through. Good luck!
