DIY Elmo Party: Easy Party Trays

January 9, 2013 By Holly Leave a Comment Filed Under: Celebrate, Design/Create, Elmo's World Party, Kids DIY & Crafts

DIY Elmo Party Ideas | Our Elmo Party was a little last minute and I didn’t have time to order colored treat cups, so I had to get creative. I found these plain white cups at Party City. Using the flat eraser on a pencil, I used craft paint to polka-dot them in the red and blue colors of the party. They were great for carrots and dip at the party, and the kids even ate the carrots!

Elmo's World Party food

I don’t believe that you have to spend a lot of time and money to throw a great kids party, and a huge part of that is keeping party food simple. It also helps to serve food that you can prepare beforehand. For this Elmo’s World party, we served pizza bagels, carrots & dip, watermelon […]
