I love to entertain – especially during the holidays. Last week I threw a cocktail party at my apartment using tons of chic (and affordable!) pieces from C.Wonder. I picked up white roses from my local bodega and filled a vase with cranberries to create a holiday flower arrangement. *I made the arrangement the day before my guests arrived so the cranberries could settle to the bottom of the vase. For an appetizer, I made a big cheese board with clothbound cheddar, brie, truffle cheese, marcona almonds, figs, and grapes. I put these little bamboo cheese knives out which made it so easy for everyone to serve themselves. For dessert, I made vanilla cupcakes with cream cheese frosting and topped them with gingerbread cookies. For cocktails, I made this pomegranate champagne cocktail and served them in these gold chevron and stripe glasses. The glasses (and drinks!) were a huge hit. The finishing touches were the wreath, mini tree and Christmas music (Michael Buble’s album is the best.) I can’t wait to use all of the C.Wonder pieces at my next soiree! You can see more pictures from my holiday party over at the C.Wonder blog.
Such a gorgeous set up!! I love those glasses and those gingerbread man cupcakes!! Such great ideas! Pinned them so I can remember them for later!
