Happy birthdays, just a little bit greener
Bit by bit we have been greening up our birthday parties--foregoing paper plates and using a colorful tablecloth to brighten the room. But whilst cleaning up armloads of balloons and streamers after our last party, I realized we still have a long way to go in shrinking the environmental footprint of our celebrations.
We'll be one step closer with a Crafty Mommy birthday garland. The sturdy felt banner from Portland artist Autumn Lapour is as reusable as it is beautiful, spelling out "Happy Birthday" for years to come. Her simple design is tasteful enough for adult celebrations, yet still fun enough for kids. And available in any color combination you can dream up.
Best part? With this on hand you'll never have to make a last-minute trip to the party store for decorations again.
