With my birthday knocking at the front door, I wanted to create a guide on how to have a fun birthday week.
Birthdays are special days to celebrate yourself by doing something you love.
Here is a guide on how to celebrate your birthday week:
1. Do something you love
Since it’s your birthday week, take the time to celebrate yourself by doing something you enjoy, rather it’s going for a walk, out to eat, or to the movies give yourself something to do every single day leading up to your birthday.
Places or things to do to celebrate you
- Go to the movies
- Get some ice cream
- Have a bbq
- Make a charcuterie board
- Go shopping
- Visit a museum
- Have a picnic
- Go to the beach
Some of these activities are good if you are budgeting!
2. Treat yourself every day
This could mean a lot of different things, but I typically would eat my favorite foods or desserts leading up to my birthday. This allows me to prepare for the special day and also enjoy the things I like.
3. Dress up every single day
Wear a special outfit each day to show off your personal style. Create a lookbook of birthday outfits and create an album so you could reflect on it for memories.
Dressing up doesn’t mean wearing something fancy every day just wear some nice outfits that make you feel good.
4. Buy yourself small trinkets
You don’t have to buy yourself something every single day but you can! I typically would buy myself a new notebook, pair of shoes or a slushie from my favorite gas station or ice cream shop. It’s the small things that matter to make your birthday week special.

6. Reflect on your previous year
If you’re into journaling or doing voice memos, make sure to reflect on how the previous age made you feel and what you want the next age to bring you.
I typically do a goal list reflecting the age, I am turning. For example, this year I am turning 23 so I would create 23 goals for me to complete at 23.
Last but not least just remember to celebrate you!
