Default western invites

My cousin and I did 2 for her kids...one was a denim pocket with red bandana coming out the top (paper) with the party info and the other we printed the invite on tanish paper kind of western looking, burned the edges and wrapped it in a fabric bandana and told the kids to bring them along to the party to wear...it does cost a bit more to mail, but so worth it.

Default party favors

You're welcome...
It may be kind of tuff with older kids....if you sew get some old jeans from a thrift store (or have the kids bring a pair), cut off below the crotch and sew across the bottom, cut strips from the legs, sew to inside of waist band and you have purse...embellish with fringe or stuff...could be fun...the girls could sew too..just a few straight lines
Paint something western on a large piece of cardboard (I used a piece of panneling I got out of the garbage) make a face hole, have the kids take their picture in the board, make wooden frames ($1 at acmoore) have the pics for them to take home, or write the thank you on the back and mail to them
I'll keep thinking...
