I first saw glitter tattoos at the Egyptology 8th Birthday Nicole W threw for her daughter. For party favors, Nicole applied glitter tattoos to her guests. I thought they looked cool, but didn't quite get how they worked.

Then I read Nicole's blog post, where she described the process and explained where to buy everything. So to try it out, I ordered this set from Glimmer Body Art for my daughter for Christmas.

(Just a quick note, we're giving away some beautiful Le Creuset cookware.  Click here if you want more info.)

We showcased dessert tables for grownups and dessert tables for girls (part 1 and part 2), so of course we had to do dessert tables for boys!  I'm so impressed by all the creativity here.  See for yourself...

We're starting a new feature called "Tips from A Catch My Party Member," where members of our community give tips on how they made certain items (foods, crafts, decorations, etc.) for their parties.

As summer winds down, I thought it would be fun to revisit some of our most memorable beach and pool parties of the year.  Enjoy!

Lindsey M's Girly Gecko Birthday Party

We've gotten some great bug parties on our site.

The great thing about a bug party is that it's a pretty open-ended theme so there's lots of room for creativity, plus it's got just enough squeamishness to make things interesting.

Christine from Following Phubie made these adorable tool belts for all her guests at her her son  Camden's  Under Construction Birthday Party.

I asked Christine if she would share how she made them, so she put together this fabulous tutorial for us.  Thank you, Christine!
