Welcome to Fabulous Friday! To entertain you today, hopefully it'll be easy, I thought I'd share with you what I've gotten to do to entertain myself today. Hey! The name may be Naughty Nikki, but there's nothing naughty about today's task.

As I serve as room mom for both of my daughters' classes, I keep myself busy with party planning on what seems a constant basis. The latest task, in addition to the valentine's Day parties is preparing for the school carnival for the littlest one's school. As room mom, I am responsible for putting together a themed basket to be raffled off.

Now, you would think I would be smart enough to stick with a run of the mill basket stuffed with whatever goodies, right? Apparently not.

My mission was to make a sombrero shaped pinata out of paper mache. I've never paper mached before and come on, a sombrero?! What was I thinking? Jenius Jax, being the jenius that she is, said to use wire for the frame. Oh, okay. So, I got a floppy hat that I have and started building a frame. I printed Mexico themed coloring pages and sent them to school for the kids to paint so I could use those. The brim will serve as the "basket" where I'll put the goodies for a Mini Mexican Vacation at Home.

Destruction helped me paint around the artwork this afternoon. I still have some finishing touches to add, but what do you think of the sombrero?
