Pinterest Parties!

4/20/2015

 
- by Randi Juric

DIY is hot and we are all very aware.  The rising trend in DIY currently is Pinterest parties. Women are getting together bringing supplies and having what’s called 'Make Days' aka Pinterest parties. They are making their own crafts, beauty products, and health remedies. This is such a fun and creative way to get together or get to know someone.

This is also great for kiddos and keeping them entertained at parties. DIY kids’ parties have become very popular as well. They can make their own chalks or toys even costumes to use at the party immediately. Kids and parents alike are loving this. It is such a fun way to teach lessons and creativity.

Easy Steps to Host a Pinterst Party:
You and your friends create a group craft board on Pinterest, where everyone  adds pins of crafts they'd like to make.

You can do this part one of two ways...

OPTION 1: The host picks one or two simple crafts off of the group board and purchases the supplies so everyone can make them during the party.

OPTION 2:  Each guest picks a craft off of the board she'd like to make, and brings enough supplies for 4 guests, including herself. Names are pulled out of a hat to decide which craft goes with which guest. By the end of the evening, every guest gets to make 4 crafts. **Remind your guests that the crafts they choose should not take more than a half hour to complete, or you'll be there all night. :)

FOOD Make the party a "Pinterest potluck" and asks your guest to bring a dish they found on Pinterest.

Wedding Favor Ideas

9/24/2014

 
by Jessica Weimer

When planning a wedding, most brides first thought doesn’t always go to favors. Usually it’s the dress or the décor or the amazing food they plan on having.  But favors are not something to be overlooked, especially nowadays when favors can be so fun and creative! No more with the old school bag of candy coated almonds that used to be the expected favor. Now thanks to Pinterest, and all the crafters out there, you can make your favors as memorable as your wedding.  These are My Big Day's Top 5 favorite creative ideas for wedding favors -  whether it is a DIY project for you and your bridesmaids or something customized your guests can enjoy for years to come.
1)     One of our favorite DIY favors is the pre-packaged s’mores.

These are the cutest favors for each guest’s place setting and they will loved by all!  They are really easy to make and won’t break the bank. All you need is a couple bags of graham crackers, marshmallows and chocolate, as well as small bags and twine to tie each one. If you really want to get creative get nametags and write a cute phrase such as ‘S’more Love’. Then gather all your bridesmaids to come help out in the construction of each baggie.

2)     Another really great favor for your guests is the homemade hangover kit.

This kit includes Tylenol for your aching head, water, a snack bar, hair ties, breath mints, tums and sunglasses. Now you don’t have to include that entire list but your guests will appreciate the thought the next morning after a long night of fun!


3)     If you are looking to do something that every one of your guests will enjoy than you don’t need to look any further than send home boxes of Krispy Kreme Donuts!

Who doesn’t love these melt in your mouth circles of deliciousness? You could even ask Krispy Kreme to frost them in your wedding color for an added touch. Guests will be impressed as well as truly thankful for such a yummy treat!

4)     If you really want your wedding favors to reflect you two as a couple but also give your guests something to use for a long time, then picture coasters are a really fun idea.

You just need to choose pics of either you and the groom or maybe someplace fun you went to. Then get them printed on a coaster and guests can use them in their home and always think of the fun time they had at your event! This is a great idea for the couple who travels a lot.


5)     Most times wedding favors tend to be more geared to woman, with the exception of any food related item. If you are wanted something to really impress the men in attendance than this favor is what you are looking for.

Cigars and match sets are something not everyone does as a favor but will definitely be appreciated by the male attendee’s
.

Event Space In Loveland, CO

11/1/2013

Quite regularly we get asked about private event space rentals up and down the front range. I try to write about as many venues as possible, and post them to the My Big Day Pinterest page.
Yesterday I just learned of a perfect space in Downtown Loveland, CO that seats about 30... perfect for meetings, parties, clubs, small receptions, baby showers, birthdays, etc!  And the best part, they only charge $25 an hour to rent the space!
Oh wait, the better part is that it's INSIDE of a cupcake shop!

B Sweet Cupcakes is a gem in Downtown Loveland. I only wish I had known of this space earlier!

The space is a private room, tables, chairs, private bathroom access, etc. It's quiet and smells like cupcakes. Need I say more?

Addicted to Pinterest

12/29/2012

If you haven't yet heard about the latest social media craze, then you might live in a closet.  Pinterest is keeping woman up late at night,  increasing the electric bill with hours of 'pinning', and is helping moms feel like underachievers all across America!

Pinterest is for the crafty and culinary experts at heart.  It is a way to catalog all the things you'd like to have, make, and wish you had the time to do.

I, myself, am addicted.  I find that I'm 'liking' and 'pinning' things for the kids I don't have and recipes I'll never make. 

But nevermind all that. For businesses, Pinterest can be a fantastic way to promote your products, simply by listing them and allowing other to like or pin them.
On my Pinterest page I've created multiple pages for the events I host. It's a great way to keep track of fun ideas for years to come and for future attendees to get a feel for the silliness.

However... you will NEVER see my secrets posted on Pinterest.  I may be creative, but I'm not crazy.  You have to attend a MY BIG DAY event to appreciate the little things that the internet just can't give you!
