Movie Night

I had a Sex and the City movie night at my house. I wanted to make it fun and special for my guest. I was able to find a lot of great stuff at the Dollar Tree and 99 Cent Store, but you would never know it! Here is everything I did for the party. I hope by sharing I am able to give you some fun ideas for your next party.

Keeping with the Sex and the City persona, I wanted it to be all about friends, fun and of course high fashion. Lets start with my mini Christian Louboutin Heels that would be the toppers of my take-home-cup-cake-to- go favors. I found these mini high hells at the Dollar Tree, they are sometimes used for weddings as a wedding favor, but not for me, I had other plans. First I applied glue all over the mini heel.

Next I added the multi-colored glitter since those are the Louboutin's I own and was replicating :)

Then I left to them to dry. After they were dry it was time to add the Louboutin signature of course... the red bottom.

They came out so cute! The real Louboutin and my Mini Louboutin

Now that the Mini Louboutin's were done, it was time to be-dazzle the spoons for the cup-cakes-to-go I be-dazzle everything it is an obsession First I applied glue to the spoon and added large size rhinestones.

I used clear spoons because I thought they went the best, but you can use any color and they will be fabulous

Next I added the ribbon to the spoon and I had ordered these key chain movie takes from Oriental Trading  if you have not checked out there site you need to I used the key chains as my name labels for each guest.

Finished Mini Louboutin's, spoons & key chain name labels

I made Oreo Cupcakes with cream cheese frosting. I used 2 cupcakes in each cup to make my take-home-cup-cake-to-go favors. I can not take the credit for the cup-cake-to-go I found it on another blog and just loved it, I just spiced it up a bit to fit my party. look how cute they came out I know, I know I need a better camera so my pictures come out better...Santa I have been a good girl...hint hint ;)

Next it was cake pop time! I had been dying to try and make the popcorn box cake pops, and what better opportunity then a movie night. My soon to be sister in law sent me the cutest popcorn cardboard boxes for my birthday that made the perfect holder for my cake pops. My fiance loves to make cake pops with me, and he is quite the cake pop maker let me tell you.

He loves Carrot Cake so I promised him the next time I made cake pops I would attempt to make them using carrot cake. I was not sure how they would come out since the cake has carrot and raisins that could get in the way and make it tricky, but it worked and with cream cheese frosting and chocolate they are squrmpshis!

 Now it was time to make one of the things I am really excited to share...My Jello-Tini's. I found these little tiny cups also in the wedding section of the Dollar Tree and thought to myself  HMMM on Sex and the City they are always meeting for cocktails...and then came the Jello- Tini and I must say I am so proud of them The mini cups came in a pack of 6 for a dollar, I lined them up on a backing sheet.

 Then I added lemon sugar to the rim of each cup and filled them up with diffrent flavor Jello. I made 4 diffrent Jello-Tini flavors for my party. After all the cups were rimed and filled I put them in the fridge to firm.

I bought sour patch fruits to add to the Jello-Tini's just to make them even more fabulous then they already are. Oh how I love my new creation!

I divided my island into 4 sections for my guest to enjoy. I made signs to desginate each area

  1. Sweets Buffet 

 2. Ice cream Parlor 

 3.Pizza Parlor

 and 4. Bar. I did not take a close up picture of the sign I made but you will see it in the next pictures :)
Then it was time to set it all up...my favorite part!

I had popcorn bags and little treat boxes for my guest to fill up with all the yummy treats!

These were another take home favor for my guest diamond "Tiffany Rings" filled with candy mints.

In the Ice Cream Palor I served 3 diffrent flaovrs of ice cream, and had 12 topping options. I had 2 marble stones chilling in the frezzer just like the ice cream places so my guest could add there topping like the pros do.

The bar featured soft drinks, champagne, and of course my Jello-Tini's

My Movie night would not be complete if I did not do the outside too right....I made this sign for the front yard

On Sunday my fiance was going to have the guys over for football, and since my movie night was on Friday I told him I would set the food up for his buddies using leftovers from my movie night, and a few extra things since it is a "guys" time. 

The Spread

I made Sweet potato fries and mini cheese steak sliders. I used football inspired craft paper and made cones to hold the fries...I know it is a bit fancy for guys, but what can I say I just cant help myself I love to make things look fabulous....my honey appreciated it very much

I even had a few leftover Jello-Tini's that I thought the guys might enjoy, and even though the Jello-Tini's are a little prissy, the guys really liked them and thought they were fun.
