Wednesday, February 29th, 2012

We just love this collection with the rainbows and shamrocks – brings in more color than the typical green and white you usually find with St. Patrick’s Day. Filled with cupcake toppers (that can also be used for decorating, favor tags, etc), drink labels for water bottles or those cute little milk bottles we’re seeing everywhere, mini candy bar wrappers and MORE!! We will email you the PDF files, and all you have to do is print, cut and create – instant party!

This Printable Party Package includes the following:
- 2-inch Cupcake Toppers/Favor Tags (use them square or use a 2″ circle or scallop punch to make them round)
- Cupcake Wraps
- Drink Labels (for water bottles, milk bottles, etc.)
- Straw Flags

Happy Valentine’s Day!!

Tuesday, February 14th, 2012

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone!! I decided to do something fun for my little guys this morning using some fun printables!

I used the FREE printables from I Heart Faces (made by Amy at Living Locurto) and then made my own extras like the straw flags, napkin rings and milk glass labels.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is just a sweet Valentine’s Day project I did for fun for my own kiddos and isn’t for sale. We are working on lots of fun printables that WILL be for sale – and for FREE – in the very near future though!

Hope you all have an awesome Valentine’s Day filled with love and laughter!

Lego Star Wars Inspiration

Thursday, February 9th, 2012

Well, we’re still lovin’ Lego Star Wars around here! My oldest had a pretty awesome Lego Star Wars party a few years ago, and now my youngest is hinting around about it too.

If you’re thinking about this theme, here are a couple of inspiration boards to get the creative juices flowing…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Make your own personalized plates! It’s easy – just print out the template, cut, glue to the plate, then put a clear plastic plate on top!

Make your own lightsabers out of pool noodles! Super easy and super fun (and safe!) for the kiddos! Cut the noodles into two or three sections depending on how long you want them, and make a handle by wrapping silver and black duct tape. Yes, it’s THAT easy!

Of course you’ll want to send out a snazzy invite. We’ve got you covered with several designs to choose from, including a couple of photo invites, too :)

Goody Bags are always fun, and personalized stickers are an easy-peasy way to dress them up and make them look super cute!

Top your tables with our printable centerpieces! To dress them up even more, run down to the Dollar Store and buy those shiny centerpiece things with the stars (usually by the balloons) and stick it in the center of your printed and assembled centerpiece – so cute!!

Dress up your cupcakes with our printable cupcake wraps! All you do is print them out, cut, wrap, and secure with some double-sided tape :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Don’t forget Thank You Cards! You can have any message you want printed on them, or you can leave ‘em blank and have your child write their own note using a silver pen or sharpie.

In case you think your cupcakes aren’t dressed up enough, we’ve got super cute printable cupcake toppers, too! Just print them out, cut (I suggest using a round hole punch – much easier, and we’re all about easy around here!) and stick on to lollipop sticks.

What’s a party without a pinata?? Make a Death Star pinata, and watch the kids go crazy! The pinata really isn’t that hard to make. All you need to do is find a round pinata (basketball, baseball, creepy eyeball – yes they have those, I’ve seen them) and repurpose it. I took all the paper stuff off and painted the “shell” grey, drew/painted the design on there, and yep, DONE.

If you want everyone to see just how cute your little Jedi is, we’ve got a couple of awesome photo invites to choose from!

Whoo’s Your Valentine?

Wednesday, February 1st, 2012

We just love owls for Valentine’s Day! How fun to throw an owl-themed Valentine’s Day party! We threw together a few ides to get you started…

Have your little hostess wear a super adorable Personalized Owl T-Shirt, pair it with a cute tutu skirt and fun leggings! Serve up pink heart shaped sandwich cookies, owl cupcakes, and strawberry milk (what fun!) served in old-fashioned milk bottles with paper straws. For favors, pass out personalized owl Valentine cards along with treat bags filled with candy and topped with a cute personalized sticker!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Paper Straws, Owlie Personalized Valentine Cards, Owl Love Personalized Valentine Stickers with Self-Sealing Treat Bags, Heart Sandwich Cookies, Personalized Valentine’s Day T-Shirt, Owl Cupcakes

Another fun party theme is CANDY! And on Valentine’s Day, you definitely can’t go wrong with candy and sweets galore! We’re really liking the red, pink, and orange color way – kinda fun to throw in that orange. Decorate with handmade pompoms, hang from the ceiling in small clusters. Serve up fun sweets like heart-shaped rice krispie treats on a stick and cake balls on a stick (stuff on sticks is easier to eat!) For a fun beverage, make punch with heart shaped ice-cubes! We like to make the ice cubes out of juice or punch. A candy bar is always a hit, and you can give everyone a treat bag, personalized with fabulous stickers, to fill to the brim!
