UCF Graduate Party Customized

Here’s a cool University of Central Florida Graduate Party that I customized some party elements to make the event extra exciting. I thought I would share some images to encourage you to plan out the details of an event, after all its the details that make any event that much more special.

For this Graduate Party, I customized cupcake picks and a Knight Helmet (University of Central Florida School Mascot) card holder. This card holder was created to hold all the cards that party guests brought for the grad. Guests were able to insert their cards into the top of the Knight’s helmet. The cards would them drop down into a box, where the grad could later retrieve.

I won’t go into too much detail, but below you can see the various steps that were taken to create these Graduate party elements.

The Knight Helmet Card holder was constructed from papier-mache and cardboard. Once the structure was complete, I used gold and black paint to finish the look of the knight helmet.

These custom cupcake picks were created using Shrink Film sheets. The sheets were printed from the computer with the grad’s name and graduating date all included on the Cupcake picks. Then they were shrunk down by putting them inside the oven. These cupcakes were complete with gold cupcake liners (Gold is a Main UCF School Color), and sprinkled with edible gold star confetti made by Wilton.
