A friend's teenage daughter was having a "makeup party." A professional cosmetologist (and family friend) took the party-goers makeup shopping for a few key pieces, helping each girl pick out the right products for her coloring, etc.
Then she took them back to the birthday girl's house where she taught them how to properly apply said makeup.
The makeup was the party favor (and an extremely generous one at that) but the birthday girl's mother was looking for a little something else. After a brainstorming session, I offered to make these:
I had her order some inexpensive plastic makeup bags from Amazon. (Similar ones found HERE.)
Then I personalized them with my Silhouette and added colorful tissue to make the names pop. That way each girl had a cute case in which she could store her makeup!
My only regret is that we were out of town and missed the whole event. I'm looking forward to seeing pictures and hearing how it all turned out.

These are ADORABLE. I love a good party favor AND you nailed it with this one. What a great party theme and favor. I hope, even though you couldn't go, your friend might share some pictures :)
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! Personalized makeup bags never go out of style ;)
