This year I had the privilege of hosting the annual Cookie Party…. great company and yummy treats made for a successful night! I didn’t take too many photos, but any photos are better than the none that were taken in previous years! The theme was “Sequins & Sweets” hence all the sparkle. I picked up these black gable boxes cheap on eBay for everyone to take their cookies home in, and printed the tags here. Some of our decor…. couldn’t leave off Horton (the elephant) just because he wasn’t black & white, centered is the wingback chair that used to live in my office. After a DIY upholstery job gone bad, I decided to make a slipcover for the chair. I used this tutorial as a guide, it’s 99% done. I picked up the pillow at TJ Maxx this week. And finally, some of my holiday wrapping this year. Wrapping must match tree, which must match living room. It’s a sickness. I’m planning to take some better photos of all my wrapping, will share soon! And finally, a few of the puppies! PS: Got my Christmas cards done yesterday, can’t wait for them to arrive!
