A Black & White Christmas 2011

Every year since 2009, we have hosted a Black and White Christmas party.  Mainly because I love an excuse to dress up/decorate for a theme.  

Here are some of the details from the party... sorry for the (mostly terrible) pictures.  We were running around finishing up the food and didn't have time to get really good pictures.

Pom Poms I spent forever making and couldn't find anywhere to put... so they went on the flag post outside

Details...

Chandelier: Handmade by the talented hubby using ornaments, lanterns, fishing string and metal rods

Black and White Noel letters: Purchased from Hobby Lobby

Table Runner: Puchased from Hobby Lobby

Food: All handmade by myself and Oxana (and Charlie grilled the sliders)

Black and White Christmas themed Cookies: Pink Magnolia Bakery

Photobooth: A labor of love that Charlie created.  I wish I knew how he made it happen but I'll try to explain... backdrop stand, black and white designed sheet set (with stitched torn out to make it curtain-like, an old computer set up to see the picture instantly, camera set up on a tri-pod with a remote and lots of lighting.


The party was so much fun, the photobooth was definitely the hit of the party! This could not have been done without my fabulous and talented husband, he is the best! Here are a few of those...
