TACO-TEQUILA-TERRARIUM PARTY

SUPPLIES :

FRIENDS 

TEQUILA

PLANTS

BOYFRIEND THAT COOKS 

I'VE BEEN PREPARING FOR THIS PARTY FOR AT LEAST 8 MONTHS NOW… I HAD INTENDED ON IT BEING MY BIRTHDAY PARTY (IN FEBRUARY) , BUT LIFE HAPPENED.  AS SUMMER REACHED A GRINDING HALT AND MY FELLOW NORTHERNERS DUSTED OFF THEIR CALF-LENTH DOWN PUFFER COATS (IN OCTOBER) I REALIZED: 

I HAD TO MAKE THIS PARTY HAPPEN…LIKE NOW.

SO AFTER SOME SERIOUS THRIFTING AND PINATA MAKING I PRESENT TO YOU: MY TACO, TEQUILA TERRARIUM PARTY. 

THIS IS A GREAT PARTY IDEA BECAUSE YOU CAN GO TO DIFFERENT "EXTREMES" BASED ON YOUR ATTENDEES 

IF KIDS ARE INVOLVED SKIP THE MAGIC SHOW AND PRINCESS FOR HIRE AND TEACH SOME GOOD OLD-FASHIONED BOTANY-- USE SUCCULENTS INSTEAD OF CACTI TO AVOID PRICKED FINGERS 

TAKE A TRIP TO GOODWILL AND SNATCH UP OLD TEA-CUPS FOR PLANTERS , THE PET STORE FOR NEON COLORED GRAVEL, YOUR BACK YARD (OR NEIGHBORS YARD) FOR DIRT--AND BAAAAAM JUST ADD PLANTS

I SET UP FOUR DIFFERENT "BARS" 

CHIP BAR

PLANTING BAR

TACO BAR

TEQUILA BAR

I have zero pictorial evidence of most of these set-ups because, well, tequila. 

FOR DECOR CHECK OUT THIS ADORABLE OH HAPPY DAY DIY I USED FOR MY CACTI PINATAS (I MADE A LARGER VERSION USING A WINE BOTTLE GIFT BOX…BECAUSE REALLY? WHO USES THOSE FOR THEIR INTENDED PURPOSE ANYWAYS?).  I USED MY MARTHA STEWART FRINGE SCISSORS FROM MICHAEL'S   TO MAKE MY FIESTA FRINGE (MAKE SURE YOU USE A COUPON!)

HAVE FUN. DRINK WATER
