Jewelry Party ideas needed
Hi Girls,
I'm hosting a Stella Dot jewelry party next Thursday. (My friend sells it and talked me into hosting a party). My worry is that I get home from work at 5:30 and the party starts at 7. I need to have food prepared for 20 guests and only have in hour and half prep time. I need easy and quick apps, dessert and cocktail ideas please. Anything that I can make the night prior but will still taste good is fine too. TIA!
Re: Jewelry Party ideas needed
Fresh veggies and a dip, fresh fruit and a dip. Cheese and crackers. Cut your fruits and veggies the night before. You could even make the dip the night before. Set-up the next day will take about 10-15 minutes.
You should ask your guests to arrive at least 30 min before the demonstration becames because the demonstrators usually like to get started right on time and do not like waiting for stragglers.
Artichoke dip is super easy and you can make the night before, just throw in the oven 35 minute before the party starts. 1 can artichoke hearts, 1 block cream cheese, 2 cups of parmesan cheese. Blend together, put in baking dish, cover with 2 tbsp of parm. cheese. Bake 350 for 35 minutes or until it starts bubbling. Let cool for at least 10-15 minutes before serving as it will be pipping hot. Serve with crackers.
Veggie platters, fruit with fruit dip (i block cream cheese & 1 jar marshmallow fluff blended together), taco dip & tortillas, pinwheel sandwiches, cheese & crackers, cookies. All of these things can be made the day before and all you'd had to do is set out.
Have fun!!
I just saw your post, I am having one this Sunday.
