Fairy Fun

Amelia was invited to a fairy birthday party and was asked to come dressed as a fairy. (This was a perfect idea for this crowd since she spends much of her time reading fairy books.) I planned to just hand her a tutu and some wings and send her on her way, but fortunately for Amelia, she has a helpful and creative older sister who had other ideas. Samantha turned her into Amelia the Sugar Fairy. (Sugar, of course, being right up Samantha's alley.) She tucked dum dums into her ponytails, and created a dum dum wand. But my favorite part was the pink cheeks and the dum dum buttons on her sweater. I also like the striped legs. Amelia was thrilled with the final product and couldn't wait to share her dum dums with everyone at the party.And even more exciting, was the face painting at the party. I loved that the painting stays with the theme, with candy painted all over her face. She couldn't have been happier.

That's one way to make 7 year old girls happy. (They were both a little disappointed that the next day was Sunday and they would have to wash it off before church.)
