Painting the roses red for table centerpieces
Thrifting for old books (that I'm now finding FABULOUS places to put them at home) and cutting paper hearts
A mock up at home
A few of the actual centerpieces
Chad's dad bought a huge chess set and let us use a few pieces
We wanted to make the entrance like the beginning of the movie, where Alice has to Drink to be small enough to get through the doorway. Each tag was cut, hole punched and tied on. Then each bottle got a shot of Hypnotiq. And after all this, we were ready to finish the bottle....
This was our keyhole doorway Justin cut from hardboard and we painted. (It later broke in 3 pieces due to the wind and came crashing down before the party started. It was nailed to the doorway)
Big and Small cards hanging from the trees at the entrance with a table of Drink me bottles
Once you got in the doorway we tried to play with proportion as much as possible and had a lot of over sized props.
A proceeds of the ticket (and any donations) went towards Crohn's and Colitis Foundation
