Gracie's Vintage Carnival {What's New Friday}

As I mentioned on Wednesday's post, I had worked with Corinn Rocker of Corley Designs on another project in the past. Well here is that project, a vintage inspired birthday carnival.

 Corinn re-created an old school carnival birthday party using a soft pink and yellow color pallet. Corinn chose traditional games like "toss the can", where cans had custom labels to celebrate the birthday girl. Every game had a special prize, which was also their party favors. Another "old school" game was the "ping pong fish bowl". Children had to throw a ping pong into a glass bowl with a real fish, but instead of sending guests home with real goldfish their prize was a custom bag of soap with a fish inside make to look like the real deal. Both parents and kids loved this! Mini Gable boxes were front and center on the dessert table and inside were miniature cookies to match the color palette of the party. Corinn had custom place mats made for tables and used rock candy and cotton candy as decorative centerpieces for the children's tables.

  12. Thank you Corinn!! I actually googled "how to make fish soap in a bag" and it gave me a super easy recipe and video from Martha Stewart on how to do it myself so I am going to give it a try. Thank you for letting me know and your party was adorable!!!
