A Crafty Grad Party


For Don's graduation party, I got a little crafty and wanted to share the results. Since Don is a History major and loves to travel, I wanted to stick to a worldly "oh, the places you'll go" theme. I ordered the beautiful compass invites from Petite Paperie on Etsy. I took some old fold-out driving maps, and cut out envelope inserts to get that cool map pattern when you open the invite. We also used the maps to make a paper airplane garland. I love how that turned out. Lastly, I baked these amazing cupcakes, and Don made some mini hand-drawn flags from countries all over the world to stick on top of them. Everything looked so cute! It was a bummer that I got the flu the week of his graduation and couldn't share in all the festivities... Anyway, I recommend these little projects  for your next shin dig.
