Last week I was honored to get the opportunity to host a Holiday party with the girls from Small Fry and Land of Nod. In Utah we are lucky enough to have a tremendous group of bloggers so it was fun to get to celebrate with some of our favorite blogging friends.
The florals were done by Lizy from Lizy’s Lilies. She is crazy talented and it was amazing to see her work in person.
We used her eucalyptus garland to drape on our winter wonderland backdrop and then topped it with the goody gumball garland. I mad the backdrop using a queen sheet and puffy paint! It was a fun addition to set the mood for the evening.
The event was held at the Awful Waffle down in Provo and it was the perfect venue!
Plush Jamboree Accordion, Plush Jamboree Acoustic Guitar, Camp Log Throw Pillow, Basic Framework Coat Rack
We decorated the place with tons of Land of Nod goodies.
My favorite part of the night was just catching up with all my favorite blogging buddies and friends.
We were also lucky enough to have the Land of Nod Creative Director Danielle Kurtz with us for the party.
Near the end of the evening we had a raffle drawing for some of the cutest Land of Nod toys!
How adorable is this pig rocker!
All the attendees went home with a set of 12 days of Christmas ornaments and cookies from Cookie Haven.
