Noah: Part 8 (Supplies)

I thought I would do a supply list for the party.  This list does not include the food.

1. Mason Jars
These Mason Jars will be for Plastic silverware.
We have a group in my area called Buy Nothing and I posted in that group that I needed Mason Jars and why.  I received 36 for nothing & I brought 1 at Walmart.

For the Centerpieces, I needed to purchase:
1. Mason jars: Given by that group
2. White chalkboard paint (Michael's) & Red, White, & Blue acrylic paints (Walmart)
3. Dowel Rods (Walmart): 16 pack & 40 pack 
I have 3 packs of the 16, but I did not have enough to do all of the mason jars so we brought a 40 pack because the 16 packs were out of stock.  My friend got the 3 packs of 16 for me when she was out of our area.

4. Floral dry foam (Walmart)
5. Shredded crinkled paper shred in Red, White, & Blue.
I asked in the Buy Nothing group and I received white, and red.  I had blue already and I purchased 1 bag from Party City.
6. Photo paper to print photos on (already had)
7. Digital Papers I found through Pinterest for the background of the photos.
8. Photos were printed with HP Instant Ink program.

I decided on the stars & stripe banner since our theme is red, white, & blue.  Basically the US Flag.
Cardstock I printed these on along with the Save the date, invitations, Thank you notes, etc, which I brought at Walmart.
I brought Twine (red, white & blue) from Amazon to put the banner on.  I also brought other Twine (red/white, blue/white) for the balloons we plan to put up with 1 table.

4. Tablecloths/Plastic Silverware/Napkins/Paper Plates
The tablecloths I got from Walmart.  Did you know that plastic tablecloths come in a 3 pack for $2.36?  Only 1 tablecloth.   I got these to save a little bit of money.
I brought the plastic Silverware from Big Lots.  This was 105 piece set and I brought 2.
The paper plates we got from Sam's Club. This was 50 plates for $9.97 and we brought 2.  Sam's doesn't have these plates on their website, but I will take a photo and post it.  They are heavy duty plates.  

I am getting excited for his party, but sad too since his ship date is getting closer.
