Pow Wow : Decorations


I liked to keep this party feeling very natural and relaxed. I didn't stress too much about decorations. I tried to make sure and only do things that would help the kids have fun - like making a teepee. It was very simple and only cost around $10 bucks. Well worth the effort. I looked around pinterest for ideas, and have pinned the DIY tee pee instructions I looked at here.


I then made a garland with feathers (found at a local craft store) and strung it around the teepee. Like I said yesterday, I just arranged our desserts on the ground - true pow wow style. And, just like native Indians had to, we had to watch out for ants!


The biggest delight was the teepee. Kids love a place to run, hide and just pretend. Let their imagination run wild with this fun hideout. No adults allowed!

    1. Thanks Lyndsey! I pretty much live at ben franklin in redmond. I am surprised I've never run into you there, since I am there all the time. Maybe we should have a playdate to ben franklin...
