Selected as Party of the Day on January 2nd!
"Oh it's a Jolly-holly-day"!
ByParty Recap
Inspired by the holiday movie premier of "Saving Mr. Banks" akin to Mary Poppins I wanted to recreate the merry-go round carousel scene using accents of red and white playing off Bert's pin-striped jacket while tying it all together to have a Christmas appeal. The use of candy canes combined the two elements nicely.
I served tea party food and played carousel music in the background to help convey the whole mood.
