Big Top Party Decor

I found this video titled Big Top Party Decor by Simply Kelly B. so inspiring, especially as I am in the process of putting together my own son's birthday party... which is this weekend.  Yikes!  I have so much work to do...  but it's FUN work. 

Here are some still shots of Kelly B's circus theme ideas.  There are some great tutorials on her blog as well, so be sure to check it out (Simply Kelly B.)

 

Color Pencil Art

How cute is this idea? ... and cheap... well, inexpensive.  I can totally see giving this as a gift at a baby shower.

For a video tutorial and more ideas for this project check out this video from Studio 5

Freezer Paper Stenciling

These twin sisters are funny. I love their ideas and many of the projects they do. Hmmm... I am getting all kinds of ideas using freezer paper for stenciling. Can't wait to try it. Will have to let you know how it works.

By the way, when they mention that you need to use fabric paint for stenciling on T-Shirts or items you plan to wash... You CAN use acrylic paint, just make sure to set it with a hot iron, through a cloth, and it should be all set.
