I found them online about a month ago at www.spacesavers.com and thought they would be super cool to use as the kids party favor "bags". Something totally unique and definitely away from what most other people do. I've googled and found a lot of interesting ways to spruce up paper bags but THIS; well; it's in a league of it's own and best of all it's PRACTICAL.... kids will get so much enjoyment out of it after the party instead of it just being thrown away.... like most things you bring home from a party!
I was also super excited when I read that they contain a base plate as I had already decided on using a Lego base plate as a placemat on the table for each of the party guests. Took one look at the price and thought yep sign me up!! I have revisited the website tonight to see they now have the same storage cases but in the girls 'Friends' Lego.... wooohooo I'm so getting these for the girls that come to the party!!
Best of all each one is only $9.99... bargain!! Costs me more than 10 bucks in Australia to get just the base plate LOL
My idea as the take home party favors is to give each child a Lego Case with a Mini Set, some stickers, a Lego Book (which I have already purchased from Target and Scholastic) some felt pens and I'm also going to attempt to make some Lego Man Cookies like these.... Good Luck I hear you saying!
I feel a 'few' test batches coming on (or hours sitting on You Tube) to try and master the art of working with royal icing. I have never worked with it before so it will be VERY interesting LOL
I also managed to score a Lego Man Cookie Cutter off eBay.com (love eBay!) so may even attempt to use the male version package in clear cellophane with a gift tag on each? Just depends on how my Royal Icing 'encounter' goes haha
