Twilight Craft Night

Since we were doing Twilight for the start of our summer book club and i am completely obsessed with the book(s)... i decided why not host it at my place? I can't take all the credit since two of my friends help me plan it and i got the labels/quotes from 'the hostess w. the mostess'. However, i can take credit for completely turning my whole living room, breakfast area and kitchen into the 'TWILIGHT THEME'. Days prior to the party, the hubby would look at the decor and sigh while shaking his head.

Invites
I created these invites and posted them in a facebook event as well as emailed them to the girls that don't use facebook.


Decorations
Why not go all out on the decor! Enjoy!


I made it really easy for the girls to identify my house :) HA!


For this i used red tissue paper. I scrunched it into a ball and then slowly pull it apart. I printed some photos of RPattz and Kristen and taped them on the tissue. It was really easy and it looked pretty cool.





Yes, i actually did this!





An easy way to customize candles is to print graphics or letters and tape them onto a candle. Obviously, we i did not light these.




Why not make use of fresh apples?


I reused roses and candles from valentine's day. I decided an apple in the middle would be a great idea!







Yummy apple!!



Themed Food and Drinks

Debbie's 30th Birthday (sex in the city)

Invitations, table cards and booklets!

It was my bestie's 30th birthday and i knew i had to do something cute. The plans were to have a few drinks and head to a trendy restaurant in Chicago. I decided a Sex in the City theme would be perfect for the evening!

Creating table cards that were part of a game I made up was a perfect addition to the 'before dinner drinks' and during dinner!

I created small booklets with questions for the game. And what do you know, that matched the table cards!

I got cute contemporary martini glasses and made....... cosmos of course!!
Debbie and me :)

The girls ready for a fabulous night out!!!

Invitations i made and emailed to everyone!
