Party Recap

We created an amazing wonderland in the backyard of these twin girls home. All of the decorations were created by us as well the dress up items. The kids had a ball running around and playing croquet in the Queens's croquet court. They crafted their own door sign to take home which was embellished with vintage Alice in Wonderland wood images. We used plastic milk for pink lemonade with the "drink me" labels along with containers filled with "eat me" jelly beans! To end the party, the kids ate amazing Alice cupcakes. Each girl went home with their own tutu and ears set--white rabbit or Cheshire cat. The boys went home with their very own Mad Hatter Hat, along with a t-shirt.

    We used the tutorial on design sponge, which I have attached here. I could not find stucco corner, so we just used chicken wire. (Use gloves bc it is sharp). I made the flower template on my own. Good luck! http://www.designsponge.com/2012/02/diy-project-giant-paper-flowers-from-ruche.html
