Party Favors {on a budget}
I really like to put non-junk items into the party bags. I came up with these for our Pinkalicious party along with a coloring book printed from Here! I made cupcakes but you could make just about any shape you can find a candy mold for and print out coloring pages for any party theme.
Supplies:
Gather all of those broken crayons {or pick up a few boxes of cheap crayons}
Candy mold of your choice
If you are a plan ahead kinda gal...save a few can while your cooking during the week. If you are like me...open some cans of beans and make some Chili! Wash and dry cans.
Put a few inches of water in a saucepan. Add your cans and throw the crayons in. Have fun and play with the colors. {pink + blue = pretty periwinkle!}
Pour the colors into the mold. Make sure it is tilted back so it doesn't spill out! Fill it all the way...I only took a picture of it half full. Mix up the colors and when the kiddos color it will change colors!
Once it cools a bit {not wobbly} put it in the freezer to harden. Pop out and color away!! These would even be fun to have out for a coloring activity for a kid's birthday party...or stocking stuffers. The possibilities go on and on!
And just so your cuties don't think these are candy...I made a little label to put on the crayon bags. And lucky you can make it too! Check out the link below. Print on sticker or regular paper. Enjoy!
