PRESS RELEASE
Princess Onxy™ Become a Princess Launch Party a Huge Success!
Saturday, June 24, 2017
Techny, Illinois
To launch the Princess Onyx™ Become a Princess Party brand, Author Clarissa Burton’s launch party was a huge success. The private party was held in Raytown, Missouri at a gorgeous, private residence for ten princesses and their parents or guardians. The theme was the celebration of girls of all skins tones. The décor was pastel pink, yellow, lavender, and fuchsia. Each princess was given a tiara, wand, and bracelet.
The party began on the deck, which overlooked a beautifully landscaped backyard. Author Clarissa Burton opened by sharing how she came up with the idea of the Princess Onyx™ fairy tales, which were based on the experiences of her oldest granddaughter, Jaydah. After the introduction, the author had a photo shoot with the princesses who wore pink, purple, or silver tiaras.
The attendees moved inside where, with the help of Princess Xsilynn, Princess Trinity, and Princess Jaydah, Clarissa read two books from the series, Princess Onyx Precious Gems and Princess Onyx Hairy Business. The captive audience learned about how the main characters overcame bullying because of their skin tones as well as how to appreciate their natural hair. After the readings, the author had a photo taken with each princess and provided each with an autographed book.
