Sweetheart Jewelry Party













Sweetheart Jewelry Party

This was a jewelry party my sister and I were asked by a friend to put on to help promote her local jewelry store. It was a Valentine's wish list party, where the girls we invited were able to enter into a raffle and then fill out "wish lists" of items they hoped a significant other might later purchase for them. My sister and I began by looking online for fun party themes and located a sweet, fun candy theme on "hostesswiththemostess". We used some of the ideas we located there to create candy centerpieces and large old fashioned candy containers. We then decided to use a decor of pink and red -- so every rose, centerpiece and drink were in pink and red. We created a cocktail menu -- with several pink and red drink options, pink and red "x" and "o" candies we hand made to top red velvet cupcakes. Pink and red ribbons on each wine and champagne flute, pink and red party favors with a coupon we designed and pink and red heart shaped candies inside. We dipped hand made sugar cookies in chocolate and carved a pineapple out to serve as a bowl for fruit dip. It was a great party -- my puppy and my sister's each dressed for the event in you guessed it -- pink and red! :)
