Party Decorations

The first thing I wanted to make was a life-size cardboard figure of Totoro for the guests to pose with, complete with a red umbrella, much like in the movie’s bus station scene. I needed one side of a large cardboard box, a knife, grey paint, white paint, green paint, and a lot of patience for this.

I drew a Totoro form on the cardboard with a marker and cut it out gently with a knife—scissors and a box cutter weren’t powerful or precise enough.

We chose a basic white tablecloth with long strips of jute as table runners for the table. The tables were adorned with mason jars, yellow mums, and natural-material woodland creatures–use what you have! I incorporated a couple of yarn totoros from an old nursery mobile.

Soot sprites hung from the gorgeous old trees on top of the tables. These were built with cheap plastic balls found in enormous bins at your local supermarket, coated in fuzzy black fabric, and adorned with two giant googly eyes. 

Party Favors Ideas

I decided to send each guest home with a little plant. It seemed ideal for a Totoro party! For a couple of dollars apiece, I purchased a variety of little succulents from my local garden store—the ideal plants for surviving our California drought.
