Well, no photos of the actual party, you understand but here are a few photos beforehand.
Now I'm not one to toot my own horn but I'm proud of the decorations. I made most of them. It's not easy finding nice, color coordinated decorations and party supplies here. There's no Party City in Hurghada. I used a lot of crepe paper, and doilies. I could not for the life of me find tissue paper for the pom poms but it turned out ok in the end. I just baked cookies and made the veggie/dip platter and everyone brought a dish. There was a lot of food because pretty much everyone showed up. We had a really nice time :)
Thanks to all of you who gave me ideas, links, and inspiration, it really helped a lot!
I love your decorations...especially the pom-poms! I'm so happy everyone had a good time ♥

ReplyDeleteFor future parties and/or general craft time with the kids: lightly color on white coffee filters with washable markers, then spray with water -- the color spreads out and dyes the filter [you can help it saturate the entire filter by squeezing it in your hand] -- let them dry flat and you can use them for lots of crafty things. You can use one color, or multiple for different effects. I did this project with my niece last summer, then made flowers with them for our cousins' dance recital.
I wish I'd done this, they're already circle/scalloped and would be great to make a project out of for kids. I'll definitely keep that in mind, thanks :)
