We had such a lovely time at our daughter’s 8th birthday slime party. All the children had an absolute blast and loved making all the different types of slime. Lexy had so many different options for them to choose from, and everything was so well organised from start to finish, even providing her own table cloth and aprons for the kids. We had really positive feedback from all the parents afterwards, with everyone saying how much their children had enjoyed themselves. Most importantly, we had one very happy birthday girl 🥰 A massive well done to Lexy for keeping 11 eight year old children entertained and under control for the whole party. Would definitely recommend Lexy for a fun, stress free party.

Lexy was absolutely incredible and somehow managed to keep a group of very excited little girls completely captivated from start to finish! It was so much more than just making slime. The girls actually learnt what goes into it and made everything themselves, choosing their own colours, glitters, charms and even scents. They decorated their slime pots and party bags, made fluffy slime and even learnt how to blow huge bubbles with it — they were completely in their element! Every part was so hands on and beautifully thought out with so many little details and choices that made it feel really special to each child. And from a parent’s point of view, it was an absolute dream — Lexy arrived with everything she needed, set it all up and tidied everything away afterwards. We genuinely didn’t have to think about a thing. Seeing how happy and engrossed they all were for the entire party said it all. Lexy is brilliant at what she does and gave our daughter the dreamiest 4th birthday. We’ll 100% be booking another one of her parties in the future!

I booked a slime party for my daughter’s 9th birthday and Lexy was simply amazing from start to finish! Lexy had great communication from booking right through to the event itself and even afterwards. She was super engaging throughout the session and my daughter and her friends absolutely loved the party and how good it was! The girls loved the personalisation aspect of making the slimes and making each one unique to themselves! Having someone else run the party aswell takes so much stress off the parent and just made everything so much more enjoyable! Lexy also accommodated travelling a little further than she normally would to my address which I’m very grateful for! I highly recommended Lexy and Made by Me Craft Parties if you want something fun and unique for your little ones! I wouldn’t hesitate to book again 🥰🩷

We booked Lexy for a slime making party for my son, as we wanted something a little bit different from the usual disco/ bouncy castle style parties and we are so glad we did. 👌 The children were engaged from start to finish. They decorated their little party bags and pots then got down to business creating 3 pots of slime. Lexy expertly guided the children in successful slime making at their pace, choosing their colours and charms and textures. The booking process was nice and easy and I love how Lexy used my party theme to theme her slime colours, charm selections, stickers, scents and even down to her outfit colours. It couldn't have gone any smoother and the children absolutely loved making and exploring their creations. Thankyou, highly recommended.

Lexy is amazing at what she does and provides a wonderful service. She recently provided a slime party for my 9 year daughter which was stress free from start to finish. Lexy is wonderful with the children and I have no hesitation in recommending her. This is the second time I have used her services.

We had a brilliant ‘get stuffed’ cabybara making 9th birthday party with Lexy on Saturday. She was friendly and organised and the children all had a brilliant time. We’ve used Lexy for several parties and they continue to be the easiest and least stressful option! Thank you Lexy 🙂

My daughter had the "get stuffed" make your own teddy bear party for her 9th birthday. Lexy was absolutely brilliant. They had a great time. The bears are surprisingly decent quality and a good size. Lexy provided so much stuff for them to do that it was a really stress free party for us parents! Lexy did everything, including cleaning up. They came away with a packed party bag that they decorated themselves, so we didn't even need to provide party bags. We will definitely invite her again for future parties.

Absolutely fantastic from start to finish! So very helpful during the ordering process all the way through to the day of the party. My 9 year old and her 4 friends had the best time stuffing their soft toys and making the Bracelets and T-shirts! Excellent party idea! The time flew past as they were having such a great time. High quality products and easy to do! Highly recommend

We recently had Lexy for a Spa Craft Party for our daughter’s 5th birthday and it was fantastic from start to finish. Everything was so well organised, and the children were kept entertained and engaged the whole time. The girls were so excited to make their own bath bombs, lipgloss and decorate their makeup bags. Our daughter and her friends are still talking about it and keep calling it “the best party ever!” Highly recommend for a fun, stress-free children’s party.
