Girls Rock Star Party - Atlanta

When the cold air begins to hover over Atlanta, Its All About You Birthdays staff becomes elated. I know your thinking huh, what's that about? Well yes, the winter season is when we switch gears into overtime with exciting indoor birthday parties for kids. Although we host parties year round, the colder months seem to keep us extremely busy. Mainly due to the fact that parents are forced to find indoor facilities to host cool and exciting birthday parties for their children. We have gotten many request for a girls Rock Star theme. So, by popular demand we added this chic, fun & sassy theme into are list of wonderful stylish parties for girls. We start off the party by heading to our luxurious wardrobe rack, where the divas can choose from an array of fabulous rock star clothing. Next, its time to accessorize. Hmmm let's see necklaces,feathery boas, glitzy sunglasses, sequin gloves and more. Then it's time to rock out the runway and let the fun begin...

Kids Crafts for Christmas


Bread Dough Clay Ornaments

Bread dough clay has been around for years because it's very easy to make and just as easy to use. You and your kids will have a blast making these ornaments.

Decorate your whole home with festive Christmas crafts! Create homemade cards, your own Christmas ornaments, tasty Christmas recipes, or just snuggle up together with printable Christmas activities.


What you'll need:
5 slices of white bread, crusts removed
1 tablespoon white craft glue
Cooking spray
Bowl
Rolling pin
Cookie cutters
Toothpick
Cooling rack
Glitter glue and paint
String

How to make it:
1. Wad each piece of bread in your hand then place into a mini food processor or blender. Only adults should run these appliances. (See photo.)
2. Process the bread until it turns into crumbs. Pour the crumbs into a bowl.
3. Spray the tablespoon with cooking spray so that the glue will slide out easily.
Fill the tablespoon with glue then pour it into the bread crumbs. (See photo.)
4. Mix the glue and bread crumbs together with your fingers until completely incorporated. Keep working it with your hands and fingers until it feels consistent. (See photo.)
5. Roll out the dough with a rolling pin and cut out ornaments with cookie cutters. (See photo.)
6. Use a toothpick to create a hole near the top of each shape and place the ornaments on a cooling rack to dry. Leave the toothpicks in the holes so that they do not close up and allow to dry overnight. (See photo.)
7. Now you can decorate your ornaments however you like. You can paint them with paint and/or glitter glue, or even decorate them with markers. You can also leave your ornaments plain. (See photo.)
8. Run a piece of string through the hole and tie to create the hanger.

Tips:
1. You can skip the need for the food processor or blender by tearing the bread into pieces and mixing with the glue. The process is much longer, but will achieve the same result.
2. If you have a pasta maker, run your dough through it instead of using the rolling pin!
3. If you are not concerned about the end color results, you do not need to remove the crusts from the bread.
