Charlene here, I thought it would be fun to plan an end of summer pool party for the kids. May Arts make it super-fast and easy to pull together fun party favors.
A trip down the party and candy aisles at the dollar store yielded some sand buckets with shovels, and some adorable necklaces that I think are supposed to be shot glasses but I filled them with brightly colored chewing gum, neon colored gummy worms and Pixie Stiks. Sure kid pleasers!
Here’s your supply list:
- May Arts Ribbon – 409-05-28 – Sheer Two Tone Stripe
- PSA Essentials Self Inking Stamper & Life’s a Beach Peel & Stick Stamps
- Small white shipping tags
- DCWV Citrus Stack Designer paper & die cuts
- Tombow Brush Markers
- 1/8” double sided tape
Just follow the directions for inserting the peel and stick stamps into the stamper and stamp way. Color with markers and decorate with sparkly paper stripes. Then just tie on beautiful May Arts Ribbon and hand print each child’s name.

Decorate the sand pails too. Make a 6-8 loop bow and tie off the middle. Cut each loop and curl just like curling ribbon….uh, oh… looks like some of those wiggly worms are trying to escape!
Thanks to May Arts Ribbon, you can plan a party in no time at all!
