I hosted a “My Favorite Things” party last weekend and it was too much fun! Beware guys, this is a long, but pretty post.

We started off the night with dinner and when we returned home it was time to get crafty! We first made Holiday Marquee’s by Heidi Swapp I purchased at Michaels on Black Friday. Everything seen on the table are my most favorite things! From mini cake plates, ornaments, free printables to Bath and Body Works lotion and more. I downloaded the “Jingle all the Way” free printable from Eighteen25 blog and bought  red glittery frames at Target. The other items I gifted were String Hearts from The Honaker Homemaker, Tea Towels by Kitch, Keysocks and Christmas Keepsake Planners by One Swell Studio. I got the chalkboard signs from the Target One Spot and used a chalk marker for everyone’s name.

These personalized wreath door ornaments are too adorable for words. ONE lady (Claudia) hand makes these precious ornaments and always has a huge one hour line at the craft show I go to each year. When I initially decided to host this party I knew this was going to be my favorite thing.

I made these DIY Bottle Brush Tree Ornaments for everyone to take home. View the details and download the free printable over on my guest post at A Blissful Nest here.

I purchased the pretty plates, cups, besties glitter letters and gift bags seen on the table from Shop Sweet Lulu. My talented friend Ann, who was at the party made the adorable snowflake cookies, also seen on the table. The other cupcakes, cake pops and cookies were from Polka Dot Bakery.

I photographed each of the other six girls’ gifts the following day so you can see how unique and adorable they all are. I swear if these were a surprise and we didn’t know who brought them we would have been able to guess who brought what in an instant since they all fit our personalities and because I think we know each other pretty well!  I contacted everyone in advance to let them know to purchase six of the same gift and to keep it under $10. Nobody did that but hey, I tried! I can’t pick a favorite, I sincerely loved them all! From monogrammed mugs to wine cork candles to warm gloves that allow you to still swipe your cell phone screens (come on, this is a MUST, am I right?!) – each and every gift was so thought out and special.

Can we talk about how clever and adorable my friend is? She arrived carrying all of her gift bags by tying some tulle around the handles – genius!

Adorned with the cutest hostess gift basket! Wine, Tumbler, Candle, Lotion and Hand Soap. All of my favorite things. So sweet!

It was such a fun night had by all, I highly recommend throwing this type of party with your friends or family! Which gift is your favorite? Would love to hear in the comments!

Thanks for sticking with me through this long post but I didn’t want to leave out any details b/c it was so fun and went by too quickly. I didn’t get as many photos during the actual party that I would have liked but that just means we were having too much fun! 😉 xoxox
