{Cowboy & Indian party-prep..}

{just some of what I've collected over the past year}
Count down to the Cowboy & Indian party has begun!  "Only 10 more sleeps Momma!" has been said around here more than once today :)  I have a million things to accomplish before the party & ballet rehearsals are beginning to get crazy too.  Although I have been known to cut things out in the parking lot {I have NO shame or finger prints at this point- thanks to my industrial glue gun}. Today I finished making the stick horses..... So CuTe!!!!!  Here are a few little other projects I've been doing in my spare time....

*****

What Cowboy party would be complete without mustaches on a stick?  I made these mustache patterns and cut them out of black poster board.

*****

Poster board {already had on hand = FREE}, dowel rods {had from another project = FREE}, models {I grew & you CAN NOT have = PRICELESS}!!!

*****

I picked these little frames up at a tag sale - whole box for 50 cents.

*****

I painted them all out red with craft paint, then distressed them.  I think some cute chalkboard messages would be fun... and once again- very CHEAP!

*****

Also cause we are gonna have us some Indians in our midst.... 

*****

and they'll be a  needn' somethin' to put their arrows in....  And a pattern for a quiver was NOT to be found.  I bought a pair for fake suede pants for $1.00 @ a consignment shop.  And was able to get 8 quivers out of them :)

I hope to get back here soon for more party updates.... but then again- baseball, volleyball, school, and  ballet have us sorta busy!  Later Cowpokes!!!
