New Year's Eve: Pocket Full of Parties Style



A week before New Year's Eve, I decided to throw a 'Pocket Full of Parties' family-centered event at my house with my friends and their children. After considering many themes and colors schemes, I ultimately went for black and white damask with red accents. This has been my favorite color combination since I was a very little girl :)



I collaborated with Little Ladybug Designs, www.littleladybugdesigns.com, who created all of the DIY printables for me. Thank you Kim!

Once I chose this theme, the rest was easy! I love party design, and I love shopping for and/or crafting party decor. With the "help" of my two year old (who pretended to craft things while I was doing so), the party was put together with class and style in 5 days! :)



My party guests were so thankful to be invited to a kid-friendly New Year's party and raved about the decor, desserts, and food. Such a proud moment for me and my family!



I could not have done it without Target, Michaels, TJ Maxx, Walmart, Publix, my local party supply store, Kim of Little Ladybug Designs, Melissa of Island Girl Cakes, Deanne of Captured by Dee Photography, Lizard and Ladybug (New Year's subway art), and my creative consultant Melissa!!
