Easy DIY Party Crafts

Are you a hostess with the mostess? Yeah, me neither. Deep down inside I want to be, but I’ve got a lot to learn. There were five kids in my family growing up (I have four younger brothers) so all of our shindigs were very simple. My mother didn’t have the time or the money to plan anything fancy, which I totally understand.

The online resources to make parties fabulous on a dime just didn’t exist back then . . . and dollar stores weren’t nearly as cool. So the basics of an awesome party back then were as follows: a cute cake, paper plates with a design, and napkins that matched.

If you were lucky you might get a banner or a few streamers. That was the 80s!

Nowadays I feel it’s way easier to have a cool party on a dime. You can be that hostess with the mostess without spending a ton of money! And I’m happy to share these party crafts with you, which are a way to do that.

There are great ideas for decorations, favors, activities, and more. A lot of these party crafts would be great for decorating OR for doing at the party. Warning: there’s a lot of glitter and confetti involved. But hey, I feel celebrations call for both of those, right?

Note: Speaking of glitter, if you use any Mod Podge in these projects, check out the Sparkle or Extreme Glitter formulas. Trust me on this.
