We All Need....A Couple Extra Minutes: Happy New Years 2015!!!!

It's soon going to be 2015! Can you believe it? I don't know about you, but with all the things going on in my family's life, 2014 seems like it blew by. This time of year is a great time to celebrate with friends and family and to enjoy the company of others, but with everything that has going on... I was shocked to realize there are only 3 days left until New Years Eve...YIKES!!!! I know what you are thinking. How can I even begin to put together a great event in this little of time? Keep reading and I will do my best to share some of my ideas that I have come up with or been given in the past couple years. :-)

First the Invite:

With the limited amount of time, you can't go too crazy on the invite. I would suggest sending out via Facebook or email. This will send a lot faster than traditional snail mail, but just because you are going the email or Facebook route, does not mean it needs to be any less fabulous. ;-) One great website that can turn your amazing photos into great invites is www.picmonkey.com you can take a very cool photo of champagne in glasses (ok... for a picture apple juice will do) into a FABULOUS invite. This is simple, but FABULOUS!

The Theme:

The theme for your party will really show how much thought you truly put into your party. Just because we need a few extra minutes in our day and got a late start does not mean our guests need to know that. To come up with a theme you need to know what type of party you are looking for. Is it kid friendly, fabulous and sophisticated, or something entirely different? Once you know, I can lead you in the right direction. :)

NYC Theme: This is a fun and exciting theme all centered around NYC and NYE. :-) You can even play off the theme of the NYC TAXi as your centerpieces.

All That Glitters: Girls love glitter and you can never get enough glitter! You can really demonstrate this by what you glitter and how it is displayed. In this case as a centerpiece bottles were covered in gold glitter. They don't even have to be champagne bottles. (They are being used as centerpieces and the glitter will cover the labels.)

Masquerade: Everyone loves a little mask and a little mystery. You can get masks at any party store and they doll them up or fancy them up into what you want in the colors that you want. Your guests will be excited about this one!

Food: What kind of food would you want at your party and that won't take too long to prepare? Below I have posted some delicious and FABULOUS foods for you to add to your party! :-)

Rock Candy in your drink...pretty and tasty
