The Party Godmother

I love creating! Starting with simple pieces of fabric and turning them into something that will be useful and pretty for years to come, well that just floats my boat!

Once I made my first Pass the Parcel, I couldn't understand why anyone would be using newspaper and sellotape again! Cute, fast-as, reusable and I can see who's already had a turn so it's a win, win, win, win!!

The Party Godmother for your reusable party supplies!

Plastic party bags and useless loot no longer coming to the party! 🎉 Times are changing, and those cheap plastic toys just don’t cut it anymore. Let’s teach our kids to value quality and sustainability. 🌱

**Convenient? Not really.** Bulk items leave us with leftover toys and flimsy party bags of little use.

**Attention spans? No.** Our kids want to play for much longer than these short-life trinkets allow.

**Respect for gifts.** Sending plastic to landfill is setting them up for a wasteful future.

**Long life gifts:**
- Mini pencils ✏️
- Hair scrunchies 🎀
- Play dough 🍄
- Wooden wands 🌟
- Bath bombs 🛁
- DIY keyrings 🔑
- Seed kits 🌱
- Bookmarks 📚
- River stones to paint 🎨
- Silicone straws 🍹
- Little books 📖

**Why The Party Godmother?** We offer long-lasting, handcrafted gifts like hair scrunchies, dough stamps, wooden wands, DIY keyrings, ribbon rings, and fabric party bags.

**No goody bag? No problem!** Incorporate thank you gifts into party activities. Recently, kids decorated their own bag tags and attached them to fabric party bags. Custom goody bags! 🎁

Choosing sustainable options helps teach our children to value quality over quantity and prepares us for a future with less waste. 🌍💚

And what it's teaching our kids

03/07/2024

I was at a toddler's birthday party. I was enjoying watching the kids play and then looked over to the serving table. It looked ok. I'd seen this kind of set up a few times before: character based, matching plates, cups, straws, party bags etc. And then it hit me. It was all rubbish. I mean yeah, it looked nice but it was literally all single use, about to go in the bin and then.... Another party would be set up for the afternoon EXACTLY THE SAME and ending up loading more rubbish into the bin. That just seemed madness to me.

I was also feeling lost after becoming a mum. I'd been creative all my life as a dancer, performer, movie maker, dance teacher, school teacher, sewer and then I'd had to put my creativity on the back burner when I became a mum. I'd try and do bits and pieces but there was little time for the creative me.

The idea started bubbling and growing.

My boost was talking to friends, family and also had the impending rubbish bin shrinkage from the council. So towards the end of 2021, I started to see if I could make a difference.

I love learning, I love creating and I love helping people. The Party Godmother was just what I needed in my life and has been helping families to create wonderful memories (and creating less waste too) ever since. How cool is that?!

I'm Sherie Hinga, The Party Godmother. I'm also a wife, mum, cat owner, relief teacher and a creative sort to boot.
