Rock Out Forever Party!

 What do you for a girl who loves music and lots of it? Well, a rock out party of course. A previous Halloween costume inspired this party!

the RESERVED area just for the girls...containers are set up with stuff for their art project. I always have an activity for the kids to do at the beginning of the party to allow for all the guests to arrive
these are the SWAG bags that also served as decorations around the food and gift table. Double duty!
some of the artwork that the girls came up with!
our very own VIP - AKA Gwen Stefani Look-a-like!
the food and gift table... see what some paint can do to some dollar store table cloths!
CHEERS to a great group of girls who know how to party!

Pirates and Princesses Party Memories

This party is one from a few years ago... but it still brings back lots of smiles. It was one of the last ones when both both and girls were both party of the party invites. 

 
 This sign welcomed you to the party (look at how great some old pieces of plywood can look!)

and there was even a plank for the kids to walk on! Eventually this turned in to a little bit of a battle on the plank with kids pushing the others off and into the SHARK waters!

  
And just another little sign made out of scrap wood. Cute right?

Yellow Submarine - Colourful Days Style!

  
Drawing table... I always have an activity for the kids while they wait for the other guests to arrive

Some fun chair covers that can now be used as pillow cases!
I'm no cake decorator, but my giant cupcake and little buddies were a super duper success!

Party goers went home with a sea themed puzzle, towel and a very large chocolate bunny (thanks to Easter candy sales)
Our little eating area and head-quarters.

Pay Day Party - More fun!

Party goers earn their money at the candy shop - guessing the number of candies, making chocolate dipped rice crispy squares and decorating their very own candy apples!
Other jobs that we up on the JOB BOARD - Clothing designers (we did tie dye shirts), dog walking, candy makers, baby sitting, and gardening (they transferred flowers in to individual pots to take home).
This was the garden area BEFORE the work started!

PAY DAY Party! Colourful and Super Fun


These are pictures from before the partiers came... above is the dinner (eating area) complete with hot dog roller!
These ribbon flowers were part of their loot bags. ... but only if they had earned enough money to buy them. (and don't you love my thrift store find of a carrying case?)
and I filled my thrift store find with more thrift store finds of vintage MELMAC dishes (these won't break when they are dropped and I love the colours that they come in!)

Pay Day Party - Colourful, fun & sticky

Today was the day and all the prep and planning was all worth it when 11 little 9 year old girls enjoyed the activities, the loot, the decorations and each other!

One of the jobs was working at the candy shop making caramel apples. I don't know if these looked as good as they taste but they had fun making them.

trains, planes & automobiles

It's official! This is finally for sale at Belle Balloons/Belle Events in downtown Belleville, Ontario! As I stand back, it all feels so colourful and fun, just like I wanted it to end up!
Included in this party-pak is: 1 'use anywhere' bin, 2 celebration pennants, 10 invites and envelopes, 1 set of activity supplies and a game suggestion, 10 loot bags filled with slingshot airplanes (they are so much fun if you've never seen them. but warning, they can go far and land on a roof or two), 10 old fashion candy sticks, 10 cupcake/food toppers...
This pack is made for a party of 10 kids, but I can always add more stuff if you are brave enough to have a bigger party than that! If you bought everything individually, it comes to just under the triple digit mark... but if you do the party-pak, it's $70 and you only have to make one stop!

I'm working on 2 party paks right now... and this is a sneak peek at my bubble insiped one. Thinking this one is geared to kids 6 and under but since bubbles make me smile it might just appeal to everyone!

As of right now, I'm thinking the party pak will include the following:
10 invitations and envelopes
3 (9' long) celebration pennants
10 swag/loot bags
10 bubble bottles
Suggestions for games with the following activity supplies:
1 package of water balloons for games
1 package of side walk chalk
