Game of Thrones Party: A Tourney of Crafts

Apr 8

Another year another party! This is somewhat of an anniversary for me, since my first GoT party also marked the first occasion I started to develop, design, and craft for parties. With a new season comes new projects!

If you're looking to purchase house banner designs, visit my Etsy shop!

Mini-Iron Throne Centerpiece

The first on my list of decorations was a mini-Iron Throne, fashioned from these cheap craft materials:

plastic sword toothpicks
popsicle sticks (base layer)
air-dry clay (2nd layer)
sculpey clay (3rd layer; I bought the clay in black and baked my pieces as directed)
craft glue (plus patience for each layer of drying)
black & silver spray paint for finishing

Weirwood Tree

Materials include wood branches/sticks (can be bought at a craft store, but the finds in your backyard will do), white spray paint, red tissue paper for the leaf cutouts and craft glue.

House Sigils

The family banners were custom designed, printed, cut out, and then attached to banner stands (made from wood skewers and small wood blocks as the base).Not pictured in the process of crafting: Viserys' "Golden Crown" centerpiece I made using a skull sculpture (bought from a Halloween store) and modeling clay spray painted gold. I also found some plastic animal toys (dragons, stags, and wolves) to use for the Iron Throne centerpiece and gave them some gold spray paint-love too. But now *drumroll*...time for the finished party!
