more party planning




Remember this?  From E's Easter Birthday party 2 years ago?
Well, it has been re-purposed.  Today, I built the hat that it will sit in for E's magic birthday party.  I used 5 pieces of poster board.  3 were taped side by side and wrapped around the bunny.  Then 2 more were taped side by side and put under the cyclinder where I traced the shape of the bottom and then traced another circle around the first about 5" away.  I used packing tape to attach the top and brim to the hat.  Once I get it all painted black, I will snap a pic to show you what I did.  Although, it looks pretty good as a white top hat too...

Yesterday, I practiced making balloon animals.  Turns out, it's not that hard to do.  If I have time, I will inflate the balloons ahead of time and then ask the kids what animals they want.

Looks like I missed throwing E a party last year.  Although much planning went in to her Disney birthday, all I did was reserve stuff.  Not the same.
