One very lucky little lady in the United Kingdom had a “Vintage Mermaid and Faded Pirate” themed-party recently to celebrate her 4th birthday. Her super clever mother showed that classy-craft really can be made yourself; her labor of love (surely many hours long!) reveals multiple ideas, any one of which is worth borrowing.
Filled with the soft pastel shades of driftwood, sand, seafoam, and blue-sky, the party is filled with hand made treasures, and included several ideas she credits Partycraft Secrets for inspiring as well as printouts from our Mermaid printpaper and party ebook including; a shark-fin prop, seaweed crepe-paper canopy, printable food flags, and a costume mermaid tail which was ingeneously used as a party game. (As always, you can click on the image to enlarge it in order to see the details.)

As I say in my story ‘about’ Partycraft Secrets; the absolute best thing that has come out of blogging has been the opportunity to celebrate the crafty-successes of my readers – so to you, Crafty Mum Estelle; well done!
