Surrounded by Plaid Among the Trees

Embracing the hot plaid trend at FizzyParty.com

Welcome back to part two of Embracing the plaid trend this holiday season.  I took the Christmas party outdoors this year and instead of having a Christmas Open House  party we went and hunted for the perfect tree.

 Plaid is SO hot during the holiday season and can be found every where right now.  And it looks fabulous among all the trees at the tree farm.  Whether you cut down a tree or go faux a hot chocolate bar is a must and so easy to do.

Since we were out at a tree farm and there was just a small group of us I kept the hot cocoa bar simple.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas at FizzyParty.com

I was blown away by the cookies Creating Awesomenessity  made.  When I placed my order I sent her my Pinterest inspiration board and this is what she created.  Aren't they just the cutest!!

Hot cocoa and donuts just go together and fueled us before the hunt.  Even with a little rain, these mini donuts were still delicious.

Party tip: Save yourself some time and stress and buy store bought or bakery cupcakes.   Liners that match your theme, sprinkles and cupcake toppers dress up store bought cupcakes and give them the wow factor.

Walking around a tree farm to find the perfect tree can work up a thirst. Depending on how long it takes you to find the perfect tree.  Some people can pull up to a tree farm and pick out their tree within 5 minutes. Others need to take their time and walk all over the farm to be sure they don't leave the perfect one behind.

Fill up on Root Deer for the tree hunt. More inspiration at FizzyParty.com

Not all people like root beer but I do and thought it would be fun to create some tags to match the party theme. Root Deer anyone?  :) hee hee

  1. That table with all it's cheer must be a very welcome site on a rainy tree hunt! I just LOVE, LOVE, LOVE that little tree n truck bunting/banner! ACK! And I actually have that saw cookie cutter and a plan for using it for the holiday if I have time to bake.

    1. Indeed it was. Isn't that tree-n-truck bunting/banner great! When I saw it I HAD to have it. It was perfect for this little party. Ha! that's awesome you have a saw cookie cutter. I bet not many people have one. Look forward to seeing what you do with it.
