Easy tennis Party Favor

Simply fill a narrow cellophane bag with yellow sixlets or m&m's and add a tennis ball sticker at the top!

This is such an easy party favor and I put them in a vase on our tennis party table and they looked super cute.

Tennis Emergency Kits

I made some Tennis Emergency kit for the ladies on my tennis team.

Each kit contained a hand sanitizer, emery board, Chapstick, sunscreen, hair ties, bandaids, and a granola bar.  Some other items you could include mints, mini Advil bottles and laminated tiebreaker rules.

I put all of the items in a cellophane bag and tied the bag with a yellow ribbon.

It just took a few minutes to package everything. 

On each cellophane bag I added a little label. And the ladies can keep these little emergency kits in their tennis bags!

Candy Tennis Ball Treats

My husband cut some tennis balls in half for me with a hack saw. I added a few pieces of Halloween candy and packaged it in a cellophane bag.

In case you have always wondered what the inside of a tennis ball looks like!

Hair Ties for The Tennis Team

These "Good Luck" hair ties are so easy to make! I made them in my tennis teams colors of black and berry. So far we have played three teams with the exact same colors.

For this project you will need:

5/8" fold over elastic

ruler

sharp scissors

card stock

The 5/8 inch fold over elastic is usually sold in fabric stores near the velcro or ribbon section.

Cut the elastic into 8 1/2 or 9-inch strips and fold the elastic in half and tie the ends with a knot.

Slide the hair ties onto a piece of card stock and write a good luck note and add a tennis ball sticker! 

It just took me about a half hour to make 8 little cards with team color hair ties. 

Food For After the Tennis Match

I don't know about you - but after a long tennis match I am often only hungry for a few bites of something. I never want a big heavy meal. So when it was my turn to bring snacks I made a  big platter of pinwheel sandwiches. I made both turkey and roast beef.

To accompany the pinwheels I put a handful of chips into the fold over sandwich bags and tied them with a ribbon.

These little chips bags are perfect with the pinwheels! What do you like to eat after a tennis match?

Tennis Ball Cookies

I made some tennis ball cookies in honor of the French Open. I used my favorite sugar cookie recipe and cut out some large 4 inch circles. Then I used some yellow candy melts, to frost the cookies and sprinkled them with yellow sanding sugar and used a white icing pen to draw the lines.

If you make the tennis ball cookies in a very small size they look cute on top of a cupcake. I am thinking about making ice cream sandwiches with these cookies.

I was sad to see Any Roddick lose in the first round. I would like to see Maria Sharapova win the tournament.
