DIY low cost gifts for Girls parties
1. Make her a novelty shaped cupcake pullapart
This looks amazing and is so much fun to eat! Simply arrange your plain cupcakes in a desired shape or formation - for example, a heart shape or rainbow shape, or even arrange in number formation to represent her age - then ice them all together as one, creating one whole shape, like joining the dots.
2. Make her a sticker book or album plus some stickers to start her collection
To make the stickers you will just need a printer and some blank printable a4 sticker sheets, that people use for making labels. Then put together some pages of cute designs from the web - we like to compile a word document full of cute free to use illustrations - or even DIY them some custom one of a kind stickers by designing your own! Then simply print them by loading the blank a4 sticker printer paper in to the printer, and set to print as normal!
You could even make her a blank scrapbook (or sticker book by using special wax pages) to go with it, by gathering some paper together and sewing the pages down the middle, to create the binding.
3. Bake a bunch of biscuit pops or cookie pops
Bake the sticks in to the cookies in the oven, then ice and decorate them and arrange them in a beautiful formation, tied with a ribbon! You could try plain sugar cookies or opt for chocolate flavour - or try a mixture of both!
4. Make some chocolate covered marshmallows or pops
Why not DIY some chocolate covered marshmallows, by dipping jumbo marshmallows into melted chocolate and adding cute decorations on top. You could decorate them with different designs and dip in different types of chocolate and colour white chocolate with a few drops of food colouring. You could even ice them afterwards to make them look like different characters from their favourite shows! You can even order some ready made here if short on time - they are adorable!

15. Make her some notebooks with pretty covers
Or a beautiful diary! To do this, you will need some paper, scissors, glue and a needle and thread.

To create a beautiful cover, head to a DIY store or similar and see if they offer free wallpaper samples or fabric samples. This is an adorable no cost gift idea that she can treasure!
16. Craft her some magical 3D letters
These look amazing and make great room decor! All you will need is some pretty paper samples (you can often find free wallpaper samples at DIY stores) and some thick paper or cardstock, plus some pva or craft glue.
17. Make her a slime play kit
This is such a fun sensory gift idea for young kids that is also low cost and easy to DIY!
To make slime, you will need 100ml PVA white glue (children’s craft glue or CE marked glue), ½ tsp bicarbonate of soda gel food colouring,1 tsp contact lens cleaning solution and some glitter/beads/decorations. A small blob of shaving foam is optional but makes for extra fluffy slime!
1. Squeeze the glue into a mixing bowl (look for a bottle in a 100ml size if possible so you won’t have to measure it out). Add the bicarbonate of soda and mix well.
2. Add a drop or two of your chosen gel food colouring. Less colouring gives a pastel colour; the more you add, the brighter the colour. Mix until well incorporated.
3. Add the contact lens solution and mix. The slime will begin to form, going stringy before coming away clean from the bowl into a ball.
4. Once it has formed, take it out and knead it with your hands. It will be sticky at first but after about 30 seconds you’ll have a smooth and pliable ball. Add glitter at this point, if desired, and work in with your hands. Store in a pot with a lid.
Tip! For gloopier slime, try adding less than 1 tsp contact lens solution, mixing it in drop by drop until it just goes stringy and begins to come away from the bowl. Then knead.
18. Create a book of personalised colouring pages of you both 👈🏻
Colouring is one of the most soothing and therapeutic activities to try - tailor it to your recipient by creating some colouring pages based on photos of your daughter and her bestie both together and happy memories you both share!

You could even change the colour of your candy bark and make it pink or purple by melting down some white cooking chocolate and stirring in a few very small drops of food colouring. All you need to then is pour in to a mold and decorate with all the cutest sweets and candy of choice, with a sprinkle of edible shimmer or glitter!
Then pop in the fridge to set and break in to pieces when cool, to arrange in a pretty bag and tie with a ribbon!
There's so many ways to get creative with this and you could add a sprinkle of freeze dried raspberries or incorporate a swirl of melted milk chocolate to create a pretty pattern. Sprinkle in some jelly sweets and add some popping candy, a must have ingredient, to finish, before setting it to cool!
