Since we had the party at 2 I decided to forgo a whole lunch and just did a dessert buffet. I made the food signs from a printable I purchased on Etsy and made the crab toppers. HERE’S the post on those

Jellyfish Tutorial
I remember seeing these cute jellyfish on Pinterest but their tutorial was so much work. You had to take a plastic tablecloth, cut it into strings and then pull in certain ways to create ruffles and then you had to sew streamers together. So cute but so much work. This is a much quicker way. I got 6 medium sized paper lanterns and cut just the bottom off so it created a half dome. Then instead of doing the plastic tablecloth I found these plastic leis.

“One”der the Sea Party Crafts
I knew I wanted to call the cupcakes at the “One”der the Sea Party crab cakes but it was so expensive to buy individual crab toppers and I’m not skilled in any way with fondant so I thought this would work best. I used my Cricut to cut out these crabs. The cartridge was Life’s a Beach and I cut them to be 3 inches. After I just drew on the details, did a lot of hole punching for the one crab’s cheeks and taped them to lollipop sticks.

Rag Doll
I’m making a Raggedy Ann hairpiece for my Halloween costume. Here is your tutorial. Buy a red beanie and get 2 skeins of red yarn. Poke one thread through the beanie at a time and make a knot on the inside. Repeat one billion times. Rest your cramping hands. Pick up beanie from across the room after you’ve thrown it in a fit of irritation. Resume poking one thread through beanie and making a knot on the inside. This hairpiece is going to be the death of me!
