Paris goodie bags, no lollies allowed! But they will love them!

Here are the Dinner in Paris goodies bags for Georgia’s 2 friends to take home after the sleepover.

From left to right.
Mechanical pencil, Shabby Chic headband, Eiffel Tower earrings, Lip gloss, Flower resin ring, Face washer cup cake  with mini make up brushes, set of 3 combs & nail care kit.
The total of the contents is $10 & with only 2 girls invited, that’s not bad.


I made a few of the gifts myself.

The Shabby chic headband was quick & easy, Just a fabric yoyo with a slef covered button & sewn on to some thin black hat elastic.

I made the cupcake by rolling a face washer & placing inside a cupcake wrapper. I then just added small make up brushed to the middle of the face washer. I then made a sticker using the Paris ooh la la Party pack.

The Eiffel Tower earrings were made using charms that I brought from a discount store & the ring was made using a blank ring & resin flower (Tutorial here)

I also used the goodie bag thank you tag from the Paris ooh la la Pack & glued it on to a paper bag from a discount shop.

So the RSVP’s are in & now I just have to finish Georgia’s outfit & organise the food.
I have a lot of ideas for the food.
I can’t wait to share them with you all.

Just to let you know, I am a “no lollies in the goodie bags” type of Mum. Georgia is the type of child who as she is eating lollies, you can see the eyes widen & the hyperactivity start. I know the nightmare that comes with taking the lollies off her after a party & I have said no to goodie bags before. I think that it is an individual choice but we eat enough sweet things at the party that I would rather give gifts in the goodie bags that are going to be used & loved.
