This is one of the prizes I put together for the girlfriend party. Cupcakes and Cashmere light pink wine glasses and Winking Owl wine from Aldi. Winking Owl is pretty good wine for the cost. |
I think this will be a sweet gift for one of the girls to win at the party. |
I paired the Cocoa bombs with one of these soft throws also from HomeGoods. |
I found two of these soft and pretty throws. I am adding one of the cute Cozy Up Cups for them to make their hot cocoa and enjoy. |
I found this beautiful throw and added the milk chocolate cocoa bombs. This is the grand prize for one of the games we play. |
I found these in a pikle bags when we were packing and moving that I forgot I had. I stuff them with things I got at the dollar store. I am excited to have this party finally. We had to miss last year's party because of Covid. To think this party started with 4 of my girlfriends 20 years ago. It has now grown into 22 of us. I love that I could always do this party to show the love and appreciation I have for my dear girlfriends and now my two grown daughters have their sweet girlfriends that attend. I hope I can continue to host this great party for years to come. It is such a great group of girls and so nice to share our love and friendship together. The preparations I do for this party is the most fun for me. I love finding unique and fun gifts to share with all of them. Have a great rest of the week. I have wallpaper on the way for the kitchen. It has taken me over a month to find the right pattern. I still am not feeling sure about what is on its way. I hope it will be nice and give the kitchen soffits and one wall some dimension and pattern. Hope to share that soon. xoxo Kris

Love it all! What do you do at the party, and what kind of games do you play for the prizes? Shopping for the prizes & doing the prep would be my favorite parts too! We need more happiness & giving & silliness in life! ❤️
ReplyDeleteFabulous, fun gifts! Your girlfriends will love them! Have a good weekend. xoxo
ReplyDeleteOkay- I have already picked what I want to win!!! LOL...Actually, the win for me is just being there and laughing our fool heads off over nothing...well, except when you cheat on L/R/M....lol
ReplyDeleteYou do such a wonderful job and it is hard to really show how great it is in a blog. It goes way beyond what you show here. I can't believe that it is that time of year already. So glad it is earlier this year. It makes it easier for most of us and we don't have weather worries either (I hope). xo xo xo Diana
Kris, your gift selections are really super nice. One more week before our official move, and I'm like a gerbil on the wheel. The only reason I'm taking a break today is because my body is screaming no more. I actually took a nap today, which I never do.
ReplyDeleteHow fun, I just love the prizes.
ReplyDeleteIt is kind of fun to find something you tucked away and forgot about, I had that happen to me not long ago.
xx oo

What great prizes for your friends' party. I love my little In A Pikle bag. I keep it in my car. xo Laura
ReplyDeleteAgain...Great Job, Kris. There is nothing better than a warm throw..(ask my doggies.. ;) ..... PARTY>>>>>>>>> :0) !
ReplyDeleteKris,
ReplyDeleteLet me repeat...Can I come to your party?? LOL!!
Hugs,
Debbie
Kris, you are a master at this stuff! I bow to your greatness! Why aren't you doing things like this for a living? You certainly could if you wanted to! (Btw, that was a rhetorical question. I know you're happily-retired and don't want the stress of "having-to".) Happy Wednesday!
