DIY Hot Air Balloons

Are you planning to travel this summer? No doubt travel plans increase during the summer months, but the number of travel-themed parties seem to increase, too! You may even know someone planning a big move that you want to throw a Bon Voyage party for.

Add these adorable hot air balloons to your decor. You can add them in a bunch as a focal point in the room, or you can easily make them as a garland to adorn a food table or window. I can even see using emerald green glittery paper for a Wizard of Oz party!

DIY Dino Feet

Do you subscribe to Family Fun magazine? I look forward to my issue every month. The magazine is filled with lots of fun craft projects and ideas for families to do together. I have a folder of tear sheets from the magazine that I've been meaning to share with you. This is one of them!

Great thing about Family Fun's projects is that most of them use regular household items. These dinosaur feet are made from tissue boxes. Great activity for a party. Add a dinosaur tail and boys will be ready for a dino-mite time!

Get creative–you can make monster feet, dragon feet... maybe Fred Flinstone feet?? Have fun with these! For the complete how-to, visit Family Fun here.

DIY Push-Up Pops

I felt totally nostalgic when I saw this! I have to admit I wasn't the biggest fan of the orange sherbert-y flavor of the Good Humor push-up pops, but the idea of creating your own flavors to make your own push-up pop totally dazzles me! Use this for any party this summer. Kids and adults will love them!

Em-agination shows us how to make them using the push pop containers that everyone's been using for cupcakes lately. Find her how-to and flavor ideas here.

DIY Confetti Party Ware

Inspired by Anthropologie speckled vases and bottles, Crafts by Amanda created these fun bottles of her own–at a much lower cost. These are great for a 4th of July party or to jazz up a picnic. Use them as bud vases or to hold straws and utensils.

Find out how they were made by visiting Crafts by Amanda.
