{VINTAGE BASEBALL PARTY}

My now 8-year old son loves baseball.  His favorite team is the Boston Red Sox and we are from New Jersey where most everyone is a Yankee fan.  Andrew's favorite player is Ted Williams so we decided to have a Vintage Baseball Party.

We wanted the invitations to have a vintage feel and thought these were perfect...complete with old fashioned pricing at the bottom.  Once we had the invitation set, we got to work on all the coordinating party items to give the party a real vintage feel.


 
{Main Table}
My older son and I hand painted a sheet to look like an old brick wall which we used as the backdrop.  We printed a 2' x 3' scoreboard (Red Sox vs. Yankees) with my son's birthday as the ending score (8-0). 
 


We offered a Drink Stand with 10 cent drinks available.  Water was provided in personalized water bottle labels,  juice in Mason Jars with grey and white striped paper straws and personalized tags with the kids names, adult beverages in brown plastic cups with personalized baseball stickers.
 
 
 Everyone at the party was asked to sign Andrew's 'Game Ball'.
