It’s time to swap ‘I want a pony’ with ‘I want to paint a pony!’
Birthday parties are often characterized by sweaty skin, sticky hands and a day’s worth of mess for parents to tackle after celebrations subside. Rambunctious little party-goers can destroy a pre-party cleaning sweep within minutes. This year, preserve your home’s cleanliness (and your sanity) with a birthday party far, far away from your property. Skip the party-planning stress and host your child’s birthday at a nearby farm.
From York, South Carolina to Statesville, North Carolina, the Charlotte-metro area features at least 17 places to pick strawberries, pumpkins and other harvest produce. Of those 17 farms, more than half also host birthday parties. And, yes, one of them allows children to hand-paint a horse (with nontoxic paint, of course).

A Cool Girl's Bedroom
WHEN DESIGNER JACY PAINTER KELLY, owner of Jacy Painter Kelly Interiors, took her family to New York City last summer, her 10-year-old daughter Lucy went crazy for the cool urban vibe of their downtown hotel room. It gave Lucy the itch to makeover her own bedroom in their Fort Mill home. She wanted more mature accents like silver wall sconces and velvet pillows, paired with punk rock elements like a graffiti-inspired bed frame and pink neon sign. Luckily her designer mom knew exactly how to tie it all together.
