Party Recap
We decided to have an "over the rainbow" party for Annamarie's 6th Birthday. I had so many little details in this party. Using pinterest to collect and organize my ideas made it a lot easier. I made a rainbow balloon arch, it was not easy but looked great! I had a tie dye station, spin art station (purchased at amazon), an amazing face painter, and a bounce castle to bounce out all the sugar that was served

Tie dye station
The kids really loved this. I would highly recommend this. I put down painters plastic under the tables since we were on the patio. I duck taped cheap plastic table clothes onto the tables. I bought latex gloves for kids and parents and helpers to wear. I found rainbow colored aprons cheap on amazon.com for the kids to wear when doing it. I pre soaked the tshirts in ash water and had them ready to tie dye as soon as they stepped up to the table.
