Favorite Things Party + Free Printable

For a couple years now, I’ve watched my SIL Cara throw a “Favorite Things” Party with her friends. I finally decided I wanted to throw one myself. 

Favorite Things Party

How it Works: The whole point to the party is to learn what products other people love. Usually, the person hosting the party sends out invites, sets a price limit, and explains how many gifts to bring, along with their favorite treat.
Well, my house isn’t nearly big enough, and along with my New Years Resolution: To Simplify! I decided to hold the party at Pizza Pie Cafe. I booked their events room and it turned out perfect. All you can eat pizza, salad, and pasta. No cleaning, prepping, cooking, or stressing. It was just grab your gifts and get out of the house as fast as you can kind of night!

I asked the girls to bring two gifts, each costing $10, so $20 total. (Pick any price range your friends can afford, many pick 3 gifts at $5 a piece) Upon arriving, I asked each girl to write their name on two pieces of paper, fold it, and put them into a bowl. We later used the names to draw for who would get each gift.

We then grabbed food, and chatted for awhile.

We then went around the room and explained each gift and why it is our favorite. Then we went around the room and drew two names, and those people received our gift.
It was fun to see what people love, and I discovered quite a few new products.

Our Favorite Things included:
  • I  brought -  Artisan Non-Stick Silicone Baking Mat + Favorite Method cleaner from Target.

We all had so much fun we decided to make it an annual party. As the host, I also added another drawing, where two girls went home with a caramel apple from the Carmel Tree, which is a local little shop in Rigby.
Their caramel apples are to die for!

I went home with Wackee Six and kitchen cleaner, gloves, and spoons.
Since then I’ve bought the baby lips chapstick and am obsessed!

Hi, we're the Sullengers! Life turned upside down for us in 2010 when we lost our daughter in an accidental drowning. Since then, we've documented our highs (life with all five of our kids) and our lows (struggles with grief) but amongst everthing we've experienced, we know as long as we hold on to one another we can get through anything that comes our way.
