After creating a NYE celebration kit {that Miss G loved} last year, I knew I wanted to do something similar this year… I loved the idea of a collection of small things to make the evening extra special, but I wanted to present it differently just to change things up a little. That’s when the idea of a New Year’s Eve surprise ball came about. While I’ve admired the surprise balls I’ve seen on the lovely blog And We Play {Valentine’s ones | turkey ones}, I’d not tried my hand at making them until just recently, and I’m so glad I finally gave it a go. Making one was easy and fun and I already know that Miss G is going to love it, so I can totally see them becoming a special celebration ‘thing’ in our house.
