Tinkerbell Party Favor Idea ~ Fairy Finding Kit

Throwing a Tinkerbell themed party for your little girl?  Make Fairy Finding Kits!  This inexpensive party favor idea is perfect for a fairy party.   It could also be used as part of the party activity.  How cute would it be to hide little fairy dolls or statues in your garden and have your party guests go on a fairy hunt?  Adorable!    

Everything you see here was purchased at the Dollar Tree.  

Here is what you'll need:

Pencil case $1

Flashlight $1

Field Journal (mini notebook) 3 for $1

Magnifying Glass party favor pack 6 for $1

Tinkerbell Pencils 3 for $1

You'll also need:

paint pen 

tape

"Fairy Finding Kit" template made on MS Word using Kristen ITC font set to size 48.  If you have a nice handwriting you can free hand it.  Mine stinks so I need a template.

Tape the template onto the cover of the pencil case and trace the lettering with the paint pen.

I love that the pencil case has a leaf shape on the lid which goes perfectly with the fairy theme.  I traced the "leaf" outline using a green paint pen so it pops.  

That's it!  

Fill it up with all the "fairy finding" goodies!  You could also include fairy stickers, crayons, and a granola bar (searching for fairies can make a girl hungry!).

The total for each party favor is about $2.83!!

Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Birthday Party Ideas

I know I'm not the only one who looks at *anything* red and imagines how it can be turned into a super adorable Mickey Mouse inspired creation.  Please, tell me that I'm not the only one....  Anyhow, I can not believe that I didn't think of this idea sooner.....Red Solo cups as Mickey's pants!!  So inexpensive and really easy to do!  Can be used as party cups or as the base of a treat bag.   

While cruising the aisles of the Dollar Tree last month, I came across these little plastic storage bins.  At the time, I did not know what I would do with them.  My inner Dollar Tree voice said...  "at 4 for a dollar, buy them now and figure it out later..."  So I bought 6 packs of 4.   I'm so glad that I did!

What you'll need

I am almost embarrassed to actually type out instructions for this...  Using a 1" circle paper punch, punch out two white circles out of card stock.  Using a low temp hot glue gun,  glue the buttons onto the cup.  Done.  Seriously, how easy is that!!

 I found black striped paper straws at Michaels for $2.  I punched out Mickey heads using my Mickey paper punch and black card stock.  I used a tiny drop of hot glue to glue the Mickey Heads about an inch down the straw.   

Finished product, how cute?!

Onto the base of the treat bag: Just like the cups, hot glue the 1" circles to the front of the container.  Fill with candy and tie with a yellow ribbon.  I added a Mickey head punch-out to the bow.

Finished treat bag :)

I made these Mickey inspired cupcakes using half of an Oreo and two mini Oreos as the ears.  Red icing and two white chocolate chips as the buttons.  So simple.
