Mustaches are cool hip and trendy...perfect for all ages and such a fun party theme to throw together quickly! You can find mustache items pretty easily now, in the dollar sections at store, in the sticker aisle at craft stores and even in the punch aisle. I wrapped a piece of artwork with a black vinyl table cloth and then ran some green crepe paper around it to look like a package. Some quick mustaches cut out by hand on green paper added to the backdrop.
A mustache punch is how I made these cute mini mustache cupcake toppers. A little bit of cardstock, glue, wooden sticks and they doubled as a mustache photo prop! Just hold in place and say cheese...
I asked my son what color he'd like me to work with and he chose green, his favorite for the moment. Found this fab black and white wrapping paper in the dollar section at Target and picked up a roll of green crepe paper for decorating. Black and white chevron paper plates and cups were found at Wally World and a package of green napkins helped keep our green vibes flowing throughout.
I am not a fan of all the plastic kitschy toys that are usually passed out in goody bags. They usually break within the first hour and when my kids bring home whistles, um, no thank you! But really, what's a party without goody bags? A bit of sweet with the green apple Pop Rocks, a glow stick necklace, a fuzzy mustache (for wearing) and mustache foam stickers. Simple, not too over the top and I think they did the trick. It's always nice to give a little thank you for those that took the time to come to a party and I haven't had a kiddo turn down a goody bag...yet.
