HOW TO THROW AN EASY CHRISTMAS COOKIE DECORATING PARTY

THIRD ANNUAL CHRISTMAS CRAFT PARTY

This past weekend I had the girls over for our 3rd Annual Girls Christmas Craft Party. This is a day I started three years back and has become a tradition that we have kept going these past few years. This year I wasn’t sure if we were going to end up doing it because my husband and I sold our house and moved in November therefore it’s been a few hectic weeks!

The craft day is open to everyone and the attendance list changes yearly. Not everyone can make each event but it’s fun to get together when possible. Each year I have planned a specific craft that we do together as a group. The first year was making our own various Christmas themed lip and body scrubs and epsom salts for the bath.  Last year we made Christmas wreaths and this year we made homemade soaps/gift bows to give out for presents (and keep for ourselves too of course!). It’s always fun to brainstorm new ideas and to get together during this busy season. Next year I may need to recreate my homemade chocolates because they were delicious and would be so much to do together!
