Hair Tie Party Favors
Recently I went on the hunt for gymnastics party favors ideas for our gymnastics themed birthday party for my oldest daughter. We ended up doing the easiest DIY hair ties for girls, which was an inexpensive project I wanted to share.
Kids party favors are somewhat of a pet peeve of mine because they often seem like such a waste on kids! I do, however, love a party favor that can be put to use. What little girl couldn’t use more hair ties for her ponies and buns?
I remembered seeing this post by Tera Rae Stephens on how to make your own hair ties and I thought, ding, ding, ding, we have a winner for our gymnastics party.
The gymnastics party had a patriotic theme, so we knew we wanted to go with red, white and blue for the hair ties. After three trips to three different Joann’s with no luck, I happened to pop into Jenny’s Fabrics in Fountain Valley where we found our elastic mecca. Every color you could imagine, including a SPARKLY gold for a gold medal hair tie.
Emma and I were so excited…

The best thing since sliced bread.
Recently I discovered this organic sliced bread by Eureka! Baking Company when the representatives contacted me about a review.
I was happy to accept the breads for review because I am always on the look out for healthy vegan bread. Eureka! I found it!
My daughter’s allergies to milk and eggs have turned our household into avid label-readers. I often say it’s a blessing in disguise because you would be shocked at the junky ingredients found in every day foods, including sliced bread.
All Eureka! Breads are USDA organic, certified vegan (hooray!) and contain no high fructose corn syrup (you would be amazed how many breads contain it), artificial flavors, colors or preservatives.
