Josh and I spent a few hours beforehand setting up sails and a fabric tent outside, laid a carpet on the deck and spread lots of pillows, cushions and mattresses around. It looked really cool and everyone enjoyed lounging there while sipping some champagne. The kids had the whole house to themselves and the next day it looked like a big box of toys had exploded everywhere.
I made some special candles for the occasion too, which I was very happy with. Tutorial to follow!
Looks like a blast! I've been wanting to make some of those candles too, we tried with some old baby food jars which was cool, but our handles were too short. Have you seen that pin on pintrest where you paint the inside of a large jar, and put the top of a solar garden in it? We made some for the kids and they work awesome.
