An unexpected way to serve drinks at your party is in mason jars. The nice thing about mason jars is that they’re not too expensive (less than a dollar a jar), they’re more interesting and homey than plastic cups, and they’re easy to dress up with ribbons, straws, flags, or whatever you like.

For inspiration, take a look at how people on our site are using mason jars to add a warm touch to their parties.

DIY S’mores Party Favors

I stumbled upon this great summer party favor idea at Tiny Prints and had to share — DIY s’mores kits. (Just writing those words makes me hungry.)

Here’s how pretty their favors look:

And to make them, all you need is this:

What I like about these favors is that they’re inexpensive and easy to make, they’re kid and adult friendly (who doesn’t love a s’more?), and while they’d work great at a “camping” themed party, they could really work at any summer party.

I know I’d be psyched to go home with one of these!
