Cloud mobile. I may combine this with some origami frogs and driftwood for some kind of hanging centrepieces. |

Or this piñata would be fun! But I wouldn't make a piñata. I think hot glue on a paper lantern shade would work. It kind of looks scaly. Like a frog. No, wait...frogs don't have scales! My reptile-breeding sister would be ashamed of me! Ok so it looks reptilian. |
So those are some of the ideas I'm working on. A friend is coming over in the morning to help me figure out what we're going to do. I went to two different stores tonight to find two colours of plain, untextured, unmetallic card stock. With no luck. I did find some textured olive green that I can use for food lables, but nothing to use for the paper circle garlands. The only plain olive I could find was too yellow, and the only plain baby blue I could find was too purple. I have one week to get this all together.

How about using the ribbon flags on drinking straws for people to use?

ReplyDeleteLooks like you're off to a good start. That's the amazing thing about Pinterst - it's full of terrific inspiration.
ReplyDeletei just showed my pinterest boards to my husband--he didn't get it--i tried explaining the concept of virtual bulletin boards--he doesn't get "virtual"--lol--anyway, i LOVE the flag ribbons on the glasses--simple but very stylish--
ReplyDeletePinterest has some great ideas - I'm doing a baby shower for my daughter and have lots of ideas on my boards if you would like to see what we are doing (I'm using a "flower" theme. Will be doing a post on my blog after the shower (in April). Good luck with your party!
