Come hobbitses, come! Pumpkinbutt invites us to his Lord of the Rings birthday party!
You are invited to a Party of Special Magnificence!
To Join the Fellowship of the Ring in Celebration of his 9th birthday
with a Noble Hobbit Mission...Quest...Thing across Middle Earth!
Join us at his Shire.
I also included a gold ring on a string.
Hobbitses must be attired appropriately . Here is Pumpkinbutt all Hobbited out: cloak, vest, Sting, and of course hairy feet!

(somewhat seen in the reflection was my costume...I was going for Eowyn because she is totally bad ass!)
All hobbitses were given a cloak, an Elven Leaf Brooch, fuzzy feet, a pipe and a map of Middle Earth.
The cloaks were made from tan fabric I had bought several years ago for a another project (stash buster!). The brooches were leaves printed on card stock with a pin back attached. The fuzzy feet tops were made from fuzzy brown fabric and black elastic. The pipes were from dollar tree (pack of 2 for 1 buck) that you blow through and "magically" float a ball. I spray painted the pipes brown and the balls white ( smoke). Great to keep Hobbitses busy in between activities.
Lembas bread for the journey.
(Pizza crust wrapped in green napkins with a leaf pattern drawn on them.)
The Hobbitses also got a satchel to place all of their items needed for the mission in. I made them from a tan fabric strip and a small brown gift bag with the handles removed. Don't have a specific photo but in later photos there will be a glimpse.
While waiting for all to arrive, they decorated shields with markers. I made the shields from cardboard (free from Lowe's) and grey duct tape.
This will be one of several posts to cover the entire party. I generally don't post PB's parties because it's a bit overwhelming to do it in one sitting. Breaking it up should help!
