My garden themed cocktail party was a success! My guests loved all the little details. I know I make myself crazy with the details but when the guest notice them, it is all worth it. I thought I would share...
I made a garland for over the food table (the table isn't set in this picture, but you get the idea). I bought vintage looking seed packets from the dollar store and strung them on green ribbon.
Here is a close-up the garland.
These are the favors I made. They were seed packets in organza bags inside little pots. The tags read "Sow Seeds of Kindness Every Day!"
The food table set-up. I had polenta triangles with goat cheese and oven roasted tomatoes, tortellini skewers with a pesto dipping sauce, homemade white bean dip, hummus and veggies and assorted crackers, a baked feta with olives and roasted red peppers and stuffed mushrooms.
So I had left over wood grain contact paper from my sons Birthday party-so I wrapped up shoe boxes and used them to add height to the table.
I used a long planter filled with ice to hold the dips!
I also used a planter to hold the white wine!
Some of the yummy desserts. I found these adorable cups and mini spoons and knew I had to use them. They made a cute presentation and were super easy. This is a little yogurt parfait.
I also made homemade cannoli parfaits. I layered them with crumbled hazelnut cookies. YUM!
I had fruit, but decided to jazz it up with flower toothpicks (I used them on the polenta as well). I just hot glued little rosettes to toothpicks.
It was such a fun night and everyone had a great time!
