I wanted to throw a Christmas/holiday party for the kids this year and decided to have our first Christmas cookie decorating party! It may become an annual tradition- it was so much fun decorating the house and the kids LOVED it. The kids needed an early bedtime and I also needed some wine and an early bedtime afterwards, which is the sign of a very good party.
The theme was deer, I wanted to go with that vintage kitschy looking deer for Christmas but I could not find any at thrift stores! However, I found some adorable plates and napkins and was able to get the Christmas deer theme going- these are the links for all the cute supplies I used- the adorable plates are one day shipping- get them for your cookie or gingerbread making party and hurry!

To save time and also because I do not how to bake, I bought pre-made cookie sets from Trader Joe’s, Target has a couple as well.
I lit a delicious smelling cookie candle for the party- and fooled parents who thought I baked all day, lol. So, that is a super easy party hack for you! Light a cookie candle during a cookie party that you did not bake cookies for the Christmas party. I bought more sprinkles and icing than the kits provided to give more choices and fun colors to add to the cookies. I included a link above for a ton of different kind of Christmas and holiday sprinkles.
