Geometric Party or Wedding - DIY Inspiration
- DIY Fondant Edible Geometric Cake Toppers: These don't look too difficult to make. You can buy pre-made fondant at a craft store (like Michaels) and color it with food coloring, then cut out the shapes with cookie cutters.
- DIY Geometric Piñata Tutorial: Made from cardboard boxes, masking tape & tissue or crepe paper.
- DIY Faceted Geometric Drink Stirrers: With just a few small supplies you can create these drink stirrers and paint them any color you like.
- Rockpool Jewel Soap $10.67 USD: I love these little jewel soaps. They would make the perfect party/wedding favor.
- Minimal Geometric Ombré Cake: These geometric pieces look like they are made out of fondant. As I mentioned above with the Geometric cake toppers... you can buy white fondant, roll, cut out the shapes & brush stroke edible coloring to give it the painted look.
- DIY Geometric Tissue Paper Lanterns: Inexpensive to make and great event decór addition.
- Geometric Napkin Inspiration: I did not find a DIY on this exact photo, but I did find this tutorial with printable geometric shapes. After they are folded & glued/taped, you could paint them or cover them with glue and glitter.
- Custom Printed Geometric Faceted Wedding Favor Envelopes: Available in multiple colors. Fill these little envelopes with flower seeds and they make a great wedding/party favor.
- DIY Wood Geometric Cake Toppers: Simple, inexpensive to make & customizable.

Online Treasure Hunt Ideas "Liam The Leprechaun"
Wake up sleepyhead
You've been sleeping all day!
I came over to trick you and tease you today!
I knocked on the door but
You just slept right through it
Now I dare you to catch me
But I bet you can't do it!, St. Patty's Day downloads, leprechaun hunt, leprechaun ideas, St. Patty's Day treasure hunt
Make this St. Patt'ys Day the most magical St. Patty's day ever with this super fun, super clever "Leprechaun Hunt"! The morning starts when each child finds the above note from Liam the Leprechaun on their pillow--they then follow ten clues chasing Liam all over the house and trying to catch him! This was inspired by my granddaughter who leaves Leprechaun traps every St. Patty's Day to try to catch a leprechaun. Why should she have all the fun--every kid should get to try to catch a leprechaun (and be teased by said leprechaun all along the way!). To download this amazing "leprechaun hunt", all you have to do is CLICK HERE
