Pinkalicious!

Abby turned 4 and decided on on a Pinkalicious theme for her party. If you haven't seen the book, you should really check it out. It is very cute.

We decorated with a combo of handmade and store bought. I sewed the circle and cupcake garland/streamers. And I made the tissue paper balls using a tutorial from Happy Together. I plan to hang them both in Abby's room now that the party is over.

We made wands like the one's Pinkalicious carries. I used giant pink pixie sticks for the stick. Then I bought a couple of sheets of gold craft foam and used my cookie cutter from last year's wand cookie favors as a stencil for the wand toppers. It was great because I just pushed it into the foam until it left an outline and then just cut around it. Saved lots of tracing time. We decorated the wands with ribbon, stickers and glitter glue. Best inexpensive craft ever!

The food consisted of various green foods, of course. Seriously, go read the book if you don't know what I'm talking about.

Favors consisted of goodie bags full of Pinkaliciousness, including my FAVORITE little thank you candy bags!
