My DD is 8 at the end of July. She is desperate for a fashion designer party where her and 10 friends make/design or alter clothes. I found a company on the internet but really can't afford it, so I thought I'd have a go at something myself but am not the most creative person on earth. What do you think would be the simplest and most entertaining things to do? My ideas so far are fabric pens and cheap white t-shirts, iron on transfers but they choose and design their top first or a batik design and dyeing their tops after. I am a bit at a loss really she would love something like this but am a little unsure what my skills would be able to cope with? Any suggestions would be very very gratefully received.

My Brownies always enjoy decorating t-shirts, bags etc. Have a look at Baker Ross or Smitkits for the paints - there are quite a variety. I tend to buy cheapie t-shirts from Asda/Tesco etc. You could also get sequins/ribbons etc to glue or sew on depending on the girls' ability.

Sounds like a great party!

How about tye-dying. Just get a load of white t-shirts or fabric paints on t-shirts.
Add on ribbons, beads etc.

You could alwasy ask the parents to send DC with an item of clothing they want to customise.

Also, get a selection of beads and pretty laces and they can make jewelery and hair clips (just need hair grips, laces and tie beads/feathers onto laces).

Lovely idea but a bit too far away. Thanks though.
