Our Annual CHARM IT! Crayola Creativity Design-a-Charm Contest is quickly approaching and I can’t think of a better way to get my niece and her friends involved than by hosting my own contest party. What a perfect afterschool activity: friends, treats, and creativity! My niece and I can barely wait for the contest to arrive… starts March 25th – May 6th on www.shopcharm-it.com.
With a world of recipes at my Pinterest fingertips, the menu planning has been pretty effortless! I have picked out treats that the girls can have a big hand in helping me prepare: Rice Krispie Paintbrushes and Paintbrush pretzels. Plus, our “Creative Juices” juice box wrap printables are sure to get those ideas flowing! Everything is so easy to make that I know the girls will have all they need to get down to creative business!
