— “Keys To Success”
A popular idea for a graduation party is an advice box. Our next idea is a little similar to that but it is more unique. Here we have keys to success. A large board has been filled up with keys with a card underneath. Each guest will remove a key from the board and write their tips for success, then put it back up. After the party, the graduate can read all the important pieces of advice from family and friends. We love this idea!
(*)Shop thrift stores for bulk find of unique key styles!
