WINTER THEMED event - party ideas, decorations, favors, treats, candy, photo booth - PHOTOS

We hosted a winter themed bingo at our local retirement residence last Sunday. Here are some photos and links to tutorials below photos or at the end of the post. 

I made 30 different bingo cards and printed on card stock paper. 


My helper setting up the table decorations.

Covered each table with blue plastic table covers.


Table centerpieces and matching candy.

Easy party favors or treats for the tables.

I made these giant 3D paper snowflakes to hang above each table. 


Picture frames wrapped and a mini photo booth against the back wall. I used snowflake wrapping paper and silver metallic curtains from our NYE photoshoot.

He also helped test the mini photobooth.

Then we all had to test it out. :) My Mom came to help too!

I used the same wrapping paper for all the little gifts.

We wanted to get something for everyone but also needed it to be inexpensive. I found these Scalp Massagers at Wal-Mart for $1.00. All blue to keep with the theme of the event.

Pre-cut the wrapping paper so each one was the same.

I made the paper a little longer, pinched the ends, and added a blue ribbon. 
Such an easy and quick way to wrap.

My older son usually calls bingo but he ran a fever the night before so he stayed home. 
The substitute did a great job.

Everyone had a great time!

DIY Ribbon & Wrapping ORGANIZER - how to make tutorial - Rack, display, storage - how to build - CRAFT ROOM organization idea

My first post was just photos and being super excited to have organization in place. 
Now I'm sharing all the details.


All supplies were purchased at Home Depot. 
1/4" rods
1/4" wing nuts
#4 hooks
Chain


I decided to use the 1/4" since it was lightweight, inexpensive, and fit nicely in the chain. 

1/4" wing nuts. I opened a package just to make sure they fit.

#4 hooks - I went a little crazy with the size. I wasn't sure how heavy everything was going to be :)

Not sure the size of the chain. I picked one that fit the 1/4" rod and was the least expensive. Here is my tough guy or so he thought, holding the chain. 

Pinned all the ribbon to prevent unraveling and organized by color.


Added all the ribbon to the rods. Placed wing nuts at the ends to keep the rods in place.

It's a WRAP! - DIY - HANGING Ribbon & Wrapping ORGANIZER

I am sooooo excited my craft room is FINALLY starting to come together. We just moved and trying to craft from boxes is NOT fun! :/

Last weekend I decided to make this to organize my ribbon and I LOVE how it turned out. I had to share pics but for all the instructions see the post below. 

TUTORIAL HERE



This is what my ribbon looked like before. I've tried to organize this a few times but I go tearing through it looking for that one ribbon while creating a tangled mess.



First step was to pin all the ribbon closed

Already looks much better

Then I organized by size and color but decided to scrap size and just do color

Added the ribbon

I showed my hubby when he asked if I was going to add wrapping paper. GENIUS!!! I mean...YES, of course! Already ahead of you! Haha! I told him that wrapping wasn't even on my mind and it was a great idea. 

I will share what supplies were used soon!
