Party Fun: Old School

So with Violet's first birthday quickly approaching, my mind is in full-on kid party mode. I haven't made all of the final decisions for her little shindig yet, but I have found a ton of cute party ideas on the web. Here's one that's been rattling around in my head ever since I saw this sweet back to school party food display over on the Amy Atlas blog:

To take it a step further, here are a few ideas for you:

• Have a fun photo booth with a big old map and some old school 'teacher' paraphenelia
• Mini chalkboards are great for photos, labeling food, you name it!
• A great globe as a centerpiece and a few shiny red apples make great decorations.
• Pencils make cute and useful party favors - wrap up all of your favors in paper lunch bags.

I love this theme because the possibilities are absolutely endless. I'd love to hear your ideas!
