March party Availability 🎈
I have one craft party slot left for March. Please get in touch if you would like to nab it.
I also have some availability for early April and plenty for May.

I only do 6 parties a month to allow for a healthy work life balance (I think my kids and hubby want to hang out with me occasionally 🙃).

On Sunday I went to Grasshopper, Parkstone to learn about emergency first aid with the lovely Lindsay from .

We covered CPR, defibrillators, epi-pens, recovery position, choking, seizures and bumps to the head. I'm really pleased to add this to my resume and to be able to offer a little extra peace of mind to parents when booking a party.

Lindsay also offers first aid classes to parents, which I highly recommend. I'm hoping I won't ever need to use my new skills, but you never know.

Did you know that I offer after-school parties❓
The weekends can be choc a block for families with clubs and sports fixtures, so how about booking a craft party after school?

I'll keep the kids busy with crafts for an hour and a half and then you can provide some food and cake afterwards.
Awesome party achieved, happy kids and parental calm prevails! ✅

Are you looking for something more low-key? How about a BFF party using my DIY party kits? Perfect for smaller parties and really easy to run yourself.

Message me to find out more or to do diaries.

🩷 Beautiful Forever Flowers 🩷
Put that pile of pipe cleaners to use this weekend and create a posy of flowers for Valentine's Day.
This is a lovely craft to do when the kids need some down-time over the weekend or after school. It's so pretty you'll want to have a go too! Making it the perfect activity for some precious family time.
Pop them in a vase, gift them to friends and family or use them to decorate gift wrapping.

I recently ran a suncatcher making party in Wimborne and this is what Florence and her mum had to say about the party:

''We were lucky enough to have Lexy come to our house this weekend to run a craft party for our 7 year old daughter. She thoroughly enjoyed every moment of the party and Lexy was so organised with making sure the girls all achieved their craft projects on time. I can hand on heart say that it was the least stressful party we’ve ever hosted, Lexy left everything so tidy and a direct quote from Florence chatting with her friends at the party “This is the best birthday party ever.. especially with Lexy here!”

Ashley Landells, Wimborne, October 2024

The Christmas hols were a bit of a blur and I didn't manage to give the lovely Millie her 5 minutes of fame. So here goes with a very belated happy 9th birthday Millie!

She celebrated at the end of December with a decoupage party. For the uninitiated, decoupage is the art of covering objects with tissue paper and glue. We decorated the initials of each girl's name and once they were dry, the girls added ribbon and embellishments. Whilst the letters dried, we had a quick interlude and made beaded keyrings.

The girls didn't want to stop crafting for their party tea, which is always a good sign!
