Deck The Halls...

Every year two of my good friends (and incredibly talented hostesses) put together a fabulous little girls-only Christmas party, which I attended last Friday. The champagne and gossip flows, we exchange gifts, and take plenty of time catch up with old friends. It's absolutely wonderful.

This year, they outdid themselves with a very festive and fabulous spread that I thought I'd share for you all in case you need a little inspiration for your own holiday parties!

Now, THIS is how you make a centerpiece! Carnations in tight balls are dotted with rhinestones and placed in vases. Jeweled tone ornaments in varying sizes surrounded by candlelight absolutely glow. Top it off with faux gemstones, and you've got yourself a party!

The girls filled little takeout boxes and provided forks in each one to make it easy to grab a little bite without having to fill a plate.

A similar convenient idea with the veggies. Shot glasses, dip and precut sticks, and we're good to go!

Raviolis on a stick! Genius, right? Not to mention they look kinda Christmassy!

A closeup of the long tray filled to the brim with Christmas decor. Loved it!

These mini cupcakes topped off the evening with a touch of sugary indulgence. Didn't they do an amazing job pulling it all together! Thanks so much ladies!
