we are always looking for fun, creative parties for children, but what about feeding our creative side? some friends and i decided to change that. and we didn’t feel anything but bliss. we celebrated a belated birthday of my friend serai, and for her party, just some of us girls got together, ate a 5-layer dip, pumpkin-chocolate-chip muffin tops, drank some homemade cocktails, and broke out the dye in the backyard…

read the directions for the Rit dye…depending on your material, you should use vinegar or salt in the dye to help it absorb better.

you want to use very hot water. luckily the tap water heats up just fine.

we tried to hang the sheets, at first, but Serai was the only one who stuck with it….

what would the night be without a bonfire to finish it out?

the night was perfect. serai sews and decided to turn all the sheets into a quilt. i look forward to seeing how it turns out….and of course, i will share it with you!

the weather is changing and my heart is stirring. i know that tons of people love fall…..but not many more than me. Halloween is my all time favorite holiday, and i am desperate for September to end so i can put up my Halloween decorations….it makes me feel anxious! this year, pinterest has inspired me so much more, and my fingers can’t wait to dig into the DIY of the season! get ready….
