Throw A Themed Holiday Party!

We modeled our holiday party on a gem my mom gave me from the 70’s called “Christmas Idea Book”. The photos were so hilarious we couldn’t resist trying to recreate that vibe in our modern loft. We encouraged guests to dress up in “festive 70’s attire” and set up a photo booth against a decorated wall to capture their hilarious duds. We spruced up the food a little, because we are foodies after all, but mostly it was cheeky, retro fare straight from some old cookbooks.
