Graduation Crafts

I got this idea online somewhere. Made them for my nephew as a graduation goody. Reece's peanut butter cup with square paper, brad, and raffia tassel to represent a mortar board graduation hat!! Super simple and festive!
Congrats class of 2010

Party centerpieces

These centerpieces we made for my daughter's 1st Birthday Party! Carnival/circus themed!
We used popcorn plastic containers filled with rocks, then foam, then a cracker jack, and sucker, and some garnish of wheat and other sparkles that we added after this photo!

Riley's 1st Birthday Carnival!

 Food, games and Prizes! We threw this party outdoors. We had several party games. Made cute ticket booth for photo ops. And Had balloons tied all over yard.
 Photo Booth for guests to be photographed inside with clown attire we provided.
 Yes we got a local clown to perform at the party.
 I took cake decorating classes and learned how to make awesome clowns to go on cake!
 Another photo op from oriental trading co.
 Cupcakes I made, the wrappers are from oriental trading co, and the clown heads are from michaels or joanns.

Photo Booth


The greatest idea ever!
Stole the idea from online elsewhere for carnival/circus parties!
Took a large cardboard box and painted circles on the outside and then got some polka dot wrapping paper for the inside liner.
Placed a little stool in the bottom and took pics!! It was great fun for guests. We provided clown noses, a hat, wig, and bow tie.
