I love planning parties, especially themed events.  There’s so much work that goes into it, but I just love doing it. 

I think I get that from my mom – she’s an expert party planner.  She’s never thrown a shin-dig that was less than perfect and her parties are legendary! 

Here are some fun, easy, and kid-friendly tie-dye recipes.  These would be great for a rainbow party or St. Patrick’s Day party, too.

These recipes are far easier than tye dying a clothing item – no rubber bands, paper towels, or plastic gloves needed!
