When hosting my best friend’s baby shower back in October, the theme was easy…pumpkins! But when it came to favors, I wanted something edible, easy to make, and cute! Well she LOVES candy corn and peanuts, so I thought it would be a fun favor to make!
I went back and forth on what favors I was going to do for Melody’s 6th birthday party which was Doc McStuffins themed. I wanted to do Hershey kisses since they are Melody’s favorites. The thought was “Kisses for your Boo Boos”. But I found some Doc McStuffin stickers, and I decided to expand the idea.
Another favor that we had at Melody’s Rainbow Ranger birthday party was a communicator. Now if you are not familiar, it is a bracelet the Rangers wear that they can use to communicate with their leader and with each other. Melody really wanted this at her party, so Brad was on a mission to deliver!
So Brad made one favor for Melody’s Rainbow Ranger themed birthday party [more on that to come later], but I wanted to do something else too. Mainly because back during February, Melody found some erasers and bubbles she wanted to use as favors. This was before really knowing how we were going to do Brad’s favors. I hated for those to go to waste, so we did some favor bags too!
What started out as very simple party favors turned into something a bit more elaborate in true Brittany fashion. As you can see, Melody had a Frozen themed 4th birthday party. The idea was to have snowflake wands for all the kids. While we did those (and you can see the how to below), since there were only 4 kids including Melody plus 2 babies, I also incorporated a bit more since I had the room to spend more. Check it out below.
For my best friend’s baby shower, I wanted to do a favor that I knew would be something I could use. I say the because I almost always make too many or forget to tell people about them! So I opted for chocolate!
The week of Melody’s Snow White Birthday, I started reconsidering party favors. I already magical kisses favors, but as the party neared I realized we would have quite a few kids. So I decided I wanted to do something small for the kids specifically but wasn’t sure what.
I went back and forth a lot on what kind of party favor to do at Melody’s Snow White birthday party. I really wanted something that went with the theme, but I also didn’t want to take ideas that made more sense for future birthday parties (princess wands, crowns, etc.). I came across an idea on Pinterest that referenced Magical Kisses, and I opted to go with that.
I recently hosted a Baby Sprinkle for my sister in law. For her last baby shower, I made bookmark favors. I considered making a favor that incorporated sprinkles to continue with the theme. I thought maybe actual sprinkles, or some sort of food dipped in sprinkles and served in cute snack bags. But I really wanted something people would use. So I decided the favors should be ponytail holders!
Melody's first birthday party was an ice cream themed party. I wanted to do some cute favors to go along with the theme. I found all kinds of things I considered doing. I went back and forth on which type of favors to do. Do I do fun favors? Do I do edible favors? Do I do favors I can make weeks in advance? Do I do favors I have to make the day before? So many decisions. In the end I decided I wanted what was going to be the cutest!
