Autographs:
Graduating
seniors love collecting autographs from the friends they'll soon leave
behind. That makes objects that are meant to be signed perfect as
graduation party favors. Collecting signatures also gives the party
attendees something to do between food and games. Offer graduates any of
the following objects and let them sign to their hearts' content:
Notebooks and booklets
White t-shirts
Stuffed animals
Frames and photo mats
White hats or visors
You will also need to provide plenty of pens or markers. If you're
writing on fabric, make sure they're permanent markers, or all those
signatures will go down the drain on washday.
Graduation Caps:
A graduation party can never ever
be complete without one thing and that is none other than the
graduation cap. Graduation caps can make a wonderful prop for
graduation party activities. You can even make the cap larger enough
to use it as table centerpiece for the graduation party dinner.
Supplies:
Glue
Golden Marker
Paint
Poster Board
Stapler
Tassel
Directions:
Make smaller caps to use as party favors
or create a larger cap for a table centerpiece at your Graduation
party!
Cut out a strip of the poster board that is about five to six inches
wide and long enough to go comfortably around your head.
Let both the ends of strip overlap for about an inch and staple them
together.
Fold the bottom edge of the circle for about half an inch. Glue the
folded edge of the circle on rest of the poster board.
Now you need to cut the large square out of the bottom of the poster
board. Let it dry. Paint the cap in school colors and once the paint
dries, attach the tassel to one corner of the square. Write the
school/college year on the cap in golden letters and your graduation
cap is now ready.
Graduation Diploma Invitations:
Make invitations into little diplomas
Use a calligraphy pen to script the invitation, roll the paper up
and tie with a colored ribbon.
Graduation Wall
Hanging Decoration:
Supplies:
Felt
Tacky Glue
Permanent Markers
String, a long piece
4 thin strips of wood (6"x1")
Decorate your design onto the felt by adding a class photo below the
name of the school and the year of the graduating class (The hanging
should be long ways).
Glue a piece of wood to both ends of the felt on the back.
Glue the string to the front. Glue the other two pieces of wood on
top of that. Let the hanging set overnight to dry.
