Here are a few ideas I thought I would share with you! We have a little friend SJ who LOVES the Show, Yo Gabba Gabba just like my Kiki and Garren do. She recently turned one so I went searching for an all Yo Gabba Gabba present! I found myself having to come up with a few ideas to make it more personal! It was hard to find a lot of cute Yo Gabba Gabba stuff! My first idea was to paint their faces on a ball! Sorry for the poor quality picture but this is the best I got!
I simply used acrylic paints and painted these simple faces, pictures posted below, on the color ball of the character! Then I sealed it with Mod Podge! Before you look anywhere else to buy the balls, check the dollar store! This is such a cheap and FUN present to give to any Yo Gabba Gabba lover and these would also be a great party favor for a Yo Gabba Gabba theme birthday!
I have blogged about Mod Podging on a ball before.... To check out the technique click HERE!
Another thing I did was wrap her present like Brobee! This was so fun... I think she thought the wrapped present WAS the present at first! =)
For the horns on top, I just made three cones out of orange paper and taped it to the box.
I also found this cute idea on Pinterest after I wrapped up SJ's present like Brobee....
Damaris from At Studio D shows you how to make these cute gift bags! Just click on the picture and she will show you how!
I'll add one more idea that I used for Kiki's second birthday! I drew a big Muno and then made a bunch of extra eyes.... and we played pin the eye on the Muno!
Hope this helps to inspire you for your Yo Gabba Gabba lover's Birthday!
Wow! This is so flattering! I was directed to this blog for tips on disciplining a 3yr old (which BTW is awesome. I use a similar way, but with tickets). And I noticed you quoted a bible verse (I'm Christian too), and decided to browse around. Clicked on games and found birthday ideas. Clicked on YGG and here is a referral to my goodie bags. How crazy cool is that!?? Hehe.
