You can also use blockposters.com to make large standees, instead of buying them, and either printing them out yourself and paste on cardboard or have a print shop like office depot print them. I made the hare like this in pic below. Super cheap. You can make big teapots with 2 laundry baskets from dollar tree wrapped in red duct tape also from dollartree. I also paper mached the evil teapot with the pvc legs.....that one was trickier to make! Hubs helped with that one.

Matrixmom, I love your ideas here. I see Peeping Thomas gets around :). BTW the upside down lamp shade turned into a top hat floor lamp is fabulous!

I keep looking at these cool fabric mushrooms on Pinterest and they always put my in mind of Wonderland.

The other day I get an idea to creat some wonderland artifacts to put under glass cloches. One will be a chipped abandoned tea cup resting among some whimsical mushrooms and other Flora with an ID tagging it as one of the Hatter's tea cups. In another could be a bloody playing card and White Rose for the Queen of hearts. Then maybe a little vial with a drink me label for Alice, and a hookah and little slipper for the caterpillar. And in another a white Queen chess piece. All of them would be nestled in the center with the crazy wonderland plants growing in around them.

Any way I thought your party would be a great place for something like that.

Couldn't help but notice the mention of giant mushrooms. I recall the old Fright Fest NW ML having major discussions over the course of 2 years on doing those. So many suggestions on how to but in the end I don't think anyone actually made any will be interested to see how you'll do it.
