Sample Cobu Event View
▢ Source Supplies
Place a bulk order for bandanas online through sites like Amazon or Bandanas Unlimited.
Order fabric paint, brushes, and paint tray plates from your favorite craft store or Amazon.
Squeezable fabric paint is a simplest method of decorating bandanas - no paint brushes needed!
Fabric markers are also an easy method of crafting on light colored bandanas.
Iron on decals are another option for decorating. Have an iron and ironing board available if you choose this option.
▢ Source Drinks
Order beer, wine, and other drinks through a delivery service like Uber Eats or source them through the local beverage store. Estimate 2 alcoholic drinks per attendee and ensure you have non-alcoholic options available as well.
▢ Set Up the Event
Set up a few tables in your common area of choice. Ensure that this area is dog-friendly in case residents prefer to bring their dogs.
Place bandanas, paint, markers, paint brushes and decals on a central table.
Place a few cups with water on every table for cleaning brushes.
Place paper towels on every table.
Set up a table exclusively for the drinks.
▢ During the Event
Encourage residents to take photos of their pets in their new bandanas once the paint has dried! Ask that they upload the photos to Cobu and/or social media and tag the building in their post!
