Photo Op

I want to have somthing like a photo op at my DD HSM party. We are using HSM standees and I also thought about this. Over at craftpad.com, she created these cute photo ops for a carnival party. I will paint a graduation type theme picture , since HSM is about high school and I think we will be showing HSM 3, which is when they all graduate. So of course this will be perfect and they can have the option of photo ops.

Ice Cream Buffet

Here is the picture I was telling you about in my previous post. How awesome is this. Visit eatdrinkchic.com and see the great aspects of this ice cream buffet. I'm inspired!

ice cream

I am in awe of the blogs that are available. There are so many wonderful ideas. I saw an idea that a mommy pre-scooped ice cream into cupcake liners and froze them and brought them out during the party. So... I got to thinking, what an awesome idea. Instead of the small expensive cups, purchase different flavors so everyone, even the adults can be happy. Maybe some mocha flavored ice cream for the parents and cookies and cream for the kids. For those who are lactose intolerant, a sorbet of some sort. Here is a picture that I found. Imprintablesblogspot mentioned this picture becuase they used personalized ice cream spoons. I won't do that but sinced I have some of those wonderful cupcake cups (nut cups), I will pre-scoop my ice cream as well. Hey... why not also have a mini ice cream buffet as well. The kids can add there on toppings. Might be fun...definetly yummy. I do have an excellent picture of an ice cream buffet that I think you might like.

What I'm doing

Here are a couple of things I recently made for the HSM party. The big pink thing you are looking at is a "piece of candy". Its actually a lantern wrapped in cellophane. these will be hanging from the ceiling at the candy buffet table. I also made another favor that will be at the candy buffet. Its a toothbrush and children's flossers in a cellophane baggie. The tag says " After you've had your sweets, remember to floss and brush your teeth". The graphic , I think was purchased from PCC Wraps, which are no longer on line. I hope the site comes back. ( I think it was from this site. I have purchased so many graphics and templates, I can't remember. If this is yours, please email me so I can give you credit).

HSM favor for boys

This is what I have so far for the boys. They have a chocolate Hershey bar, mini bar, and a goody bag. I tend to go over board on favors. For each game I give prizes. I will show you all some other fabulous find that I found yesterday at the Dollar Tree.

Apothecary jars

I need some apothecary jars for my candy buffet. I looked at Hobby Lobby and they are rather expensive. I guess I'm gonna have to find some coupons from Michael's to get a jar. If someone can lead me to some, I would really appreciate it. I'll let you know when I find them. I did find the scoops. I'll give the website under fabulous finds.

Party Craze
