We made invitations out of scrapbook paper with a silver star glued to the top. I forgot to take a picture of the invitations. These were the favors that were at each plate. A little star ornament I got at a local craft store 50% off. They came in a package of 24.
The cute poem I found on the internet. I'll share it with you on another post.
The centerpieces were made out of computer paper that I glittered and the red paper is the stuff that you cover bulletin boards with. Fifty cents a yard, can't beat that.
We glued them to a dowel that I spray painted silver and the mister made a little wooden stand to stick the dowel into. We set them on a cake plate filled with cupcakes that sat on a piece of polka dot oilcloth. I stuck a little greenery around the cake plate. Every one had fun and the best part was I only spent about $125.00.

Very nice! Looks like a RS party? Beautifully done, love it! ;D
Wow! Great job. I love your star theme. I'm sure everyone had a fabulous time!
Way cute stars! I love the "mimi" dot oil cloth, and the cup cakes. I'll bet it was a hit!

Now I need to know what you're doing with that oil cloth, as it seems impossible to put it back together again and gift it to Lisa. But whatever. The party looks FANTASTIC and all I can say is I pity the fool who has to follow in your wake.
You did such a great job Sue! Wish I'd known about it beforehand - I have a small tree full of silver star ornamaments that would have been PERFECT to display for the evening - I would have loved loaning it to you since I'm not using it this year. You know those silver round lids that you get for your to go food at Cafe Rio? That's what I made the stars out of - very cool - and FREE!
Great job Sue! You are amazing! I am sure the sisters really enjoyed themselves!

This party really turned out well~ the decorations are really pretty and festive!
You created a lovely setting. I bet the food was delicious too.
That's the best centerpiece for a RS dinner I've ever seen--super cute. Next time I have to come up with something for one of our dinners--I'm calling you.
Wow! Adorable party and the budget can't be beat. You made a gorgeous party:>)
Very nice, and on a budget too! I like to try to do that because it's more fun than just throwing money around anyways.
Brenda

I'm going to have to steal your idea. Really, really cute! I miss you so much. Can't wait to see you in a couple weeks!!!
Wow! It's beautiful and sounds delicious! Love the star theme.
I think I need you to budget for me for dinners and decorating :) It looks wonderful, Mimi.
Wow, Mimi, great party on a budget! Looks wonderful and the food sounds so good. I like your whole theme.
