Party favors are an important part of any birthday celebration. They serve as a way to thank your guests for coming, and they give them something to remind them of the wonderful time they’ve had. If you’re on a budget, however, it may seem impossible to compete with those who put together huge goody bags for their guests.
Actually, creating great goody bags doesn’t require a great deal of expense. Making home-made fillers can help cut costs and still put a smile on your guests’ faces. Here are five great home-made goody ideas.
There’s so much to do when throwing a birthday party. There are party favors to choose, cakes to buy or bake and decorate, gifts to purchase, and decorations to hang. But one of the most important things to do when planning a party is to invite the guests. A party is not much fun if there’s no one there to celebrate with you!
You could go to the store and pick up a pack of invitations. Or you could make your own unique ones. It’s not as hard as you might think, and it can actually save you money. Here are some tips to help you make beautiful invitations without breaking the budget.
Christmas cards are always a great craft.? Provide the kids supplies like construction paper, card stock, scissors, glue, glitter (the bottles of glitter/glue in one package are a very nice low-mess way to dress up a project), pencils, crayons or markers and old Christmas cards. Let the kids use their creative energy to make wonderful handmade cards that can be shared with family and friends. By cutting pictures out of old cards, even the younger children can make something really nice (and recycle at the same time).
