Happy Birthday Dr. Suess

On March 2 we had a birthday party in honor of Dr. Suess and went to see the new Lorax movie since it opened that night. So I themed our party around The Lorax which is also one of my favorite books growing up!

I made these for our little guests to each take one home for a favor. So simple, pipe cleaner wrapped with black ribbon and pom poms (found at Hobby Lobby as well as the flower plates below) glued on top. Print off the text and done! DSC_1199My version of Truffula Trees! They’re actually my dead basil plants that I hadn’t thrown out yet…first time I’m glad I can’t keep any plants alive! Spray painted them white, used a magic marker to draw the black lines on, glued on pompoms and shoved fake grass in the bottom.

PASS!! So I made blueberry muffins instead.)

Plus the movie was so so cute and all the kids loved it!
