So, this is it...it's October and I have to plan a 10 year old sleepover party!
That's right, I said sleepover. YIKES! Luckily my daughter only wanted
to invite 7 friends. We think we can handle that.(Sure...) Anyway, I did
send out the invitations this morning. My daughter helped me create them.
Took a small wood coffin (Michaels Craft Store) and painted them. Then I
designed a quick invite and she helped with the copy. Printed them out had
my daughter tear the edges...tied them with black ribbon...put them to bed
in blackish grey netting from the dollar store. Then of course I had to create
the mailing box that they went in because the box from the Container Store
was just too big. So I disected it and created a smaller box ... put in some
spanish moss for that creepy effect. Added a maling label and there off!
It took the better part of our afternoon. Now we just have to decorate the
whole house and choose the games! I'll keep you posted.
