Classic Art Party {6th Birthday}


Oh Man what a week!   I'm going to backtrack to last Friday when I jumped on a jet plane to go be with my sick grandmother in Arizona.  I spent Friday-Sunday in Phoenix, and hopped back on a plane home Monday night.

Headed back to work Tuesday-Thursday and then volunteered at the school all day Friday to help with School Pictures.  Which... was a BLAST!   Loved all those kiddos cute faces and fancy outfits, and also my awesome partner in crime for the day, Krista!!

Friday night was spent preparing for the party as well as the tailgater.  Woke up Saturday, had to deliver stuff to a client, prep food for football, and then headed to the ball park at 3pm.  And was there until 1:30am!!!   Eek!

Came home, climbed into bed for a few hours, then it was up bright and early to decorate for the party I am about to show you!    How on earth did I do it?  I haven't a clue.  But I've got great support and great friends to help me every step of the way!!  Oh and I hired help with several of the birthday party decorations.  That was a blessing for sure!

Ok, now onto the amazing Art Party!

The party was held on my parents back patio, and using the pop up tent sides worked great to close in the space!



























I hope you enjoyed the party as much a we all did!  Head on over to FACEBOOK if you want more information on the printables available for purchase.

Don't forget to check all of the parties I link up to each week!

What a cute party! I love the paper chains as a backdrop for the food table and those cute rice krispie treats. Very cute party. Hope you got a nap afterward! :)

My kiddo is such an early art bloomer. He's almost two and loves to doodle with any writing utensils he can get his little paws on.

I love this creative party idea! Everything is super cute! Great job! I think that melted crayon welcome sign fits PERFECTLY!

Thanks for joining in on the party at Mighty Crafty!

Found you on pinterest also. Can you tell me where you got the sticks for the Rice Krispie paintbrushes?

Hey, this is a really nice site you have here and I just wanted to drop a friendly message. It has a lot of potential, actually my son ad I run a couple blogs ourselves like this. To be honest, I’m kind of old school and I really didn’t get into the digital stuff easily.
