Party Post- CrAfternoon Delight - Poptails with Friends

I'd been watching Mad Men and seeing booze popsicles online.

Boozy poptails and cold soup popsicles while we made friendship bracelets.

Party Post- CrAfternoon Delight Pom - Poms

My first CrAfternoon Delight craft party.

This was #1- Pom Pom Garland.

I will be pom-pom-a-thon-ing the above, adorable pom-pom garland for my holiday decor. Wanna join me? Nothing fancy, just an afternoon of crafting with cocktails and nibbles.
Kids are welcome (their little hands are perfect for making teeny tiny pom poms.)
I will have some yarn on hand, but feel free to bring your preferred color palette. Bubbly drinks and finger foods will also be on hand.

I can't remember the title, but these appetizer cups came from an amazing retro party book.

This gave me the perfect opportunity to try out my new Silhouette cutter.

Signature drink; Vodka Punch. I need to do the floating sign idea again.

Party Post- Friendsgiving

After seeing so many folks online doing Friendsgiving,

I thought I'd give it a go.

We won't be here for Thanksgiving, so it seemed like a perfect time.

I made turkey, sweet potato casserole, and my favorite pickled deviled eggs.

My parties seem to have a signature cocktail and this one's was

Cranberry Margaritas from A Beautiful Mess. 

Set up a postcard station using my grandpa's old postcards from his travels.

I also set up a photo station using my Polaroid Zip Instant Printer,

 then used the pics as garland decoration

Everyone brought their favorite Thanksgiving dish, usually from a parent or grandparent's recipe.
