Code BC: Paper Lanterns?

colliebabe

Hey ladies!

DD's party is this Sunday and I have had no luck finding paper lanterns. I've checked Walmart, Michael's and AC Moore. Iparty only had pink and blue for baby showers. If I had been smart I would've have ordered them online weeks ago, but I just figured somewhere around here would have them. 

Any other ideas of where I could find some on short notice?

My idea is to make this, which would be pretty easy if I can find the lanterns!

Do you have an IKEA nearby? I know that they have them. We are doing Hungry Caterpillar with tissue paper balls like these.

As we are doing the same theme, I tried to find these as well! I found the colors at party city, which is a party warehouse store, and they were expensive!! So I am doing balloons instead. I will Pip when I am at my computer.

Do you have a Five Below or Dollar Tree near you?

I got ours at Target, they are striped and polka dotted. They had solid colors too though.

Thanks ladies! Jaeleigh - I think we may do a balloon one on a different wall too (the place we are having it needs some major decorations to spice it up anyway.)

Mamazbo - the paper puffs would be a great replacement and we do have an Ikea near us so I will check there if I don't find the lanterns!

Lopes - I check the Dollar Tree and was excited to find green ones, until I realized the have Halloween shapes all over them. We do have a Five Below too so I can check there as welll - thanks!

AA and JG - thanks! I checked the Target near our house, but they didn't have any. There is a way better Target a couple towns over, so I will check that one instead!

This! Or a Christmas Tree Shop? When do you need them by?

Sunday! Nothing like procrastination ha ha. Actually there is a CTS around the area too. Luckily I live near an area that has all of these stores on one road!

Oh boy. That is last minute. I was going out today to party city and a couple of other stores...I was going to say if I see some I can pick them up and send them to you but you are extremely limited with time.

Thanks Wishful! I know, it is so last minute!   I guess I thought they were a common item and I would be able to find them easily. I didn't think of Party City - I know there is one in NH...I am going to google and see if there is one closer to me.

I bought ours from Party City. Nothing can beat dollar store but I thought they were fairly priced at PC compared to Hobby Lobby. GL!
