Ideas? party favors - Hippymom

JEWEL · 01-26-2009, 08:15 PM

K. I have a bunch of leftover tulle. Not enough to make extra tutus but i'd like to possibly use some of the scraps for something for the girls (3 girls) who are coming to Annabelle's b-day next month. I also have to think of something for the boys. (4 of them, ages 1.5 to 5).

So far for a few of the scraps i will make goodie bags. I was also thinking of making a barrette or 'fairy wand' for the girls with tulle accents, or something along those lines. But i have NO idea what to make the boys. Obviously they wouldn't appreciate tulle anything. lol.

There isn't really a theme for her party... i have a my little pony toy i'm putting on her cake, and i may draw up some my little ponies to put up as decorations, and then she will have her tutu to wear.

So many possibilities, i just can't seem to wrap my head around it to come up with anything. I don't want to have to buy favors since i am pretty sure i can craft them up myself. I just dunno what. lol.

Could you use the scraps and other scrap fabric to make bean bags? You could use them for a couple of kiddie games and then send them all home with one.

My son would absolutely love a wand wrapped in black or blue tulle

The Divine Ms. Em · 01-26-2009, 08:50 PM

good idea Scarlet...
and

you could make the boys "wizard" wands with maybe "wizard" caps

That's all I got right now.

check out this link, i'm totally doing these!

not martha - to make : tiny pinatas

The Divine Ms. Em · 01-26-2009, 08:58 PM

Those are neat... probably a lot easier to break than regular pinatas. Those things are a bitch to get open. An adult always had to break the ones we have had.

on the real!! even the pull string pinatas are a PITA to get open!

Yeah, but it's fun watching a bunch of 4 year olds swing a bat wildly for 30 some minutes

The Divine Ms. Em · 01-26-2009, 09:29 PM

as just a word for the wise... pixie sticks don't fair well in a pinata!!
