Budget-friendly Easter decorating: With egg prices still higher than we'd like, I experimented with decorating craft eggs instead of real ones — and I'm obsessed. I've broken down which craft eggs to buy (wood vs. plastic), 10 creative decorating techniques (temporary tattoos! washi tape! fabric scraps!), and how to set up a mess-free station for kids. The best part? Your kids' decorated eggs become keepsakes you can display year after year. 👉 Get the full craft egg decorating guide here Need coordinated party decorations fast?

If she hadn't been a twin sharing a birthday party, I would have thrown her the most joyful purple party you've ever seen — purple paper chain decorations, purple crafts, and one perfect party favor: a copy of Harold and the Purple Crayon. I never threw that party (twins complicate things), but I always knew exactly what...
Hi Reader - I bought two metallic curtain streamers for my daughters' Dolly Parton/Weather party (you had to be there) — two different colors, two different brands. One came out of the package completely falling apart. I had to scramble to make it look decent, and it was not my finest party planning moment. That's the thing about party supplies — you really don't know what you're getting until you're standing there the day before the party, hoping for the best. I started working on a party...
