Time to party?

Are you planning on hosting a Holiday get-together?  I love planning a little party.  And of course the Holidays are a great opportunity to invite peeps over.  There’s all kinds of different events:  cookie swap, cocktails, White Elephant Swap and the list could go on!

So first things first – you are going to have to invite some people over.  You could do the whole e-vite option.  I’m sure there will be even more option in a few weeks. But these are pretty cute:

Then there’s always the print off your own option.  Check out these amazing FREE downloads from downloadandprint.com 

 

Anna shares all kinds of beautiful invitations that you download and print on 8-1/2 x 11 and then trim.  

Ok – so you’ve got your theme and you’ve decided on an invite.  Now it’s time for the good stuff= FOOD & DECOR!  I’m a big fan on using the internet to search for recipes.  Some of my favorite food/recipes sites:

Pioneer Woman	Paula Deen
Bon Appétit	Tyler Florence
Tasty Kitchen	All Recipes

Now for some fun decor inspiration:
