Pirate Party Invitations

See How a Pirate Would Say It.
Next, copy and paste the new text into a text or graphic program and print on appropriate paper (see below). You can find some great fonts at Simply the Best. There are instruction for downloading and unzipping the fonts there also. Print, buy or make some aged paper (burn edges and stain with tea). Then, roll up the paper, and tie with raffia (leave long tails on the raffia). |
| Finally, put some sand, a few small shells, and the rolled up invitations, in clean, dry water bottles (minus the labels), being sure to leave at least one raffia tail hanging outside of the bottle when you close the lid (needed to get the invitation out). Hand deliver the bottled invitations or label them and ship them via the mail. Printable Pirate Paper
