Hump Day Poll: Your Childhood Go To's
Candy Edition! I was thinking about my Mom's 50th birthday party. It was a wonderful memory because I worked really hard on it and planned it for 9 months to make it great for her. Because she didn't have a 25th wedding anniversary, I knew I was going to go all out for her 50th. I had family, friends, people from high school, co-workers (ones I knew she liked! 😁) and I loved seeing her face when she would see people she hadn't seen in a long time. One of the biggest hits that people talked about for years after were the retro candy baskets on every table. I bought ones that I knew were her favorites as well as looking at what were popular at the time. People lost their minds and were squealing like kids when they saw their favorites. I got all of the candy through Candy Favorites website and it's always so fun to look through. I was perusing the site, I was thinking of what stuff I'd want in the baskets on my table for a party like Mom's: Cher...
What a great idea! When I saw it hanging on the wall I thought you had bought it specifically for that. I had no idea you bought it and just kind of made up a crafty way to use it on the fly like that. You never cease to amaze me!
ReplyDeleteThanks hon! I always thought that towel was too cute to be shoved in a drawer! :-)
DeleteThat is definitely an easy craft - even I could do. I don't have an empty wall space though, or an extra cute towel laying around. I'll have to keep it in mind though for a cute/easy/inexpensive gift for someone down the road.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely! Especially if you can get them after Christmas and score a good deal on them!
DeleteVery cute. That's exactly what I think about seasonal towels--they're too cute for actual usin'!
ReplyDeleteYep...but not anymore...just in a different way! :-)
DeleteReally cute idea and adorable towel. I love the concept of just folding it over the edge and using safety pins. Brilliant!
ReplyDeleteSometimes lazy crafts look just as nice as the ones that make you want to ram your head into a wall! :-)
