I'm getting ready for Phoebe's 5th birthday party this weekend. It's an "Art Party" because, as the girl says, "I love art!" She thinks anything to do with crayons or scissors or glue or tape is art. School is her favorite place because she "does art all day long!"
I found the invitation template on Pinterest (where else?). It's a free DOWNLOAD, but it did eat up a heck of a lot of ink! Then I stuffed each one with 8 crayons from a 120 count Crayola crayon box. If I'd known back in the fall that this is the party we'd be having, I would have stocked up on the 8 count crayon boxes when they are on sale for like 40 cents because the 120 count box has lots and lots of crayons in pink/red shades, but not so many yellow/orange shades. I felt like my boxes were heavy on the pinks and that frustrated this control-freak just a little bit because I couldn't do a ROY G BIV variation in each box.
But handing out an actual crayon box was super fun. The kids *loved* them!
So I've been spending my week in a plethora of bright colors. It's been awesome! Seriously, I think this is the party I've had the most fun getting ready for. Party details coming next week.
Until then, I'm buried under a pile of art supplies, balloons, and rainbow colored food.

I can't wait to see all the details. Super sad that I am missing this party but glad that Lincoln gets to come and enjoy his "cuckins" at "Fefe's" house.
Not sure Lincoln will be wearing anything in the color scheme though.
