Batman Birthday Party Re-cap

For my son's birthday last year we did a Batman theme. I blogged about it and received a million e-mails with questions...(well not a million but 999,999) I am so busy that I have not had the time to answer all these e-mails so I will re-cap it here and tell you how I did it.

I'm already in the process of figuring out what I will do this year, he already picked out his "theme" so now my job is working around it!

1. Tee -Shirts: The party favors were tee- shirts for each child with the batman emblem and their name on it.



How To:

* Go to any craft store or even on-line and order tees in color desired. I designed the logo (which you can do in any photo editing software)

* Go to an office supply store and purchase tee-shirt iron on transfers (I find that the transfers for dark colored tees work the best, even if you are using a light colored tee)

* Print and cut the logo and iron on...voila it's that simple!

* Packaged them in poly clear bags which you can go to ebay and get there (if you want to package them that way)

*Then while you are at the craft store pick up multi colored tote bags and tissue paper to pop them in for the finishing touch

Candy Buffet:

Yes. I'm obsessed with candy buffets and felt like my child wanted one (well no. he didn't but I DID!)

How to:

* order candy in bulk online or go to any discount store and purchase a variety of candies you would like to use

* for the jars/containers once again go to a craft store. They have many shapes and sizes

* for the labels (I designed as well) easily done on your computer (or you can contact me and I can design them for you:)

So hopefully this helps :)

  3. Vanessa, wow! You are creative!
    Thank you for sharing such a wonderful idea...I'm planning my son's batman party, the kids are going to LOVE this favor. :o)
    I had a question tho, when printing the logo, did you have to put the kids names on backwards? Then print onto the iron on paper, then iron on the t-shirt? Or how did you achieve that? Please advise.
