Personalization
Friday, April 08, 2011
When I plan a party or get-together to honor someone, I love to personalize the occasion. I think it makes the guest of honor feel like they are loved when a little extra time is put into the planning process. It is so easy to do and makes a big impact. Here are a few ways I personalized some events I've thrown.
I threw a surprise party for my friend Jenny and thought it would be funny to hold a picture of her face in front of ours when we yelled "surprise!"
After choosing a color scheme of orange, purple and green, I ordered personalized confetti from Photofetti.
With Photofetti you upload images of the guest of honor and select a few accent colors to go with your party color scheme. It makes it a little more personal don't you think?
On my son's birthday he was excited to bring treats to his classmates. When I saw these picks I knew exactly what to do with them.
I printed off a cute picture (I used the contact sheet option in Photoshop to get multiple copies of the same photo), cut them into squares, and put them in the picks. Then I stuck the picks into cupcakes (with his favorite color of frosting).
For his pre-school Christmas party, my son took some home made play dough to give each of his friends for Christmas. I just pulled up his picture on Photoshop and added a clipart of Santa's hat.
Another great (and delicious) way to personalize your party or shindig is to order these personalized cookies or these custom M&M's. Make or order a personalized cake by using these. Most bakeries will personalize cookies and cakes if you have a photo of the guest of honor. Cool huh!
Have fun planning your next party by personalizing it with images of the guest of honor.
