If you know me, you’d know that I’m a serious introvert! It’s so hard for me to put myself out there, but I have always wanted to be one of those people. I decided that one of the best ways to get started on being more social is to throw a little party. However, regular parties make me anxious. So, why not a craft party? I have always wanted to do one of these with friends and family! Here’s how to throw your very own fall-themed craft party!
Choose Your Craft
The first thing I had to do was figure out exactly what I wanted to make. So, I took out my phone and went on my trusty Pinterest app to look at my DIY board. I’m not saying I spent hours looking for something, but I did. I’m a notorious over-thinker and with the help of James, I chose: Fall wreaths! Seeing these all the time in stores always made me want one but the price kept me away.
After finding a few different wreath photos on Pinterest, I went with the grapevine wreath look. So I bought six on the Michael’s website, and purchased all kinds of flowers and leaves to add to them as well! The total for everything for 6 people cost me about $50-70, which I think is reasonable! Some of my guests were bringing their own glue guns which was helpful. However, all I could think about was how sticky and messy this project could get; and I was so ready for it!

Snacks!
Usually people will go for chips and dip when it comes to parties, but not me. I went for homemade snicker doodle cookies, warm apple cider, and homemade, delicious, sticky, messy cinnamon rolls. It’s not a party if you don’t get messy!
Just look at this amazing cinnamon rolls! They are the perfect treat on a chilly Saturday morning with a nice cup of warm cider!
You can never go wrong with snickerdoodle cookies- they’re my favorite!
