Hi all ~ I just got done looking at who's posted pics of their parties so far ~ luv luv luv it ~ I'll go back and make comments ~ I just got so excited to post my party pics ~
I originally was spose' to have a big party but RSVPs proved it wasn't gonna be enuf people...then weirdly I changed it to an "open house" from 4-7pm and I got more than I did at last years party ....I think its cuz people didnt feel obligated to stay since it was open house ...and it was early enough so we could all go to other events.
Anyhoo ~ enuf chatter ~ Here's my small fun house inspired by Alice In Wonderland .... Click on video link for walk thru and "down the rabbit hole"tunnel. (scared the lil kiddies and even some adults) Note I took the video today before I took it all down ...so thus empty serving dishes in sink LOL.

Here's a sample of pics ~ can go to my page here to look at more...

Ani, everything came out great! Your "tea party guests" are wonderful! I bet you had a hard time getting people to leave after your open house It was fun bouncing ideas off each other this year, thanks for all your inspiration!

Everything looked great!

Thanks ~ it was so much fun to put together, do and share with friends and friends here on the forum ~ I think sharing the process with friends on the forum added to the fun this year.

Next year I'll be doing Pirates of the Caribbean theme (inspired from ride and movies) ...so watch out mateys LOL I think I'll go as the Tia Dalma character, she's so much more interesting than just a female pirate.

Looks like you had a lot of fun! I'm glad your party went well!

Great to hear that the party was a success and more people got the chance to see all your hard work! Looks fantastic and I particularly like the mad tea party. Hope you don't mind if I eventually (I'm talking years down the road) adapt some of your ideas.

Love the theme!! Where did you get the awsome checkerboard cloth? Love it.
