We’re going to be honest, our record for having actually seen any of the Best Pictures nominated for this year’s Academy Awards is not too good. It’s 0 for 8 to be exact. We are, however, familiar with the nominations for the animated feature film…we’re rooting for How to Train Your Dragon 2!
In our sleep-deprived, ‘surrounded by sick kids’ state, a fancy party is not in the cards this year. But, pajamas and a glass of POM champagne or vino sounds fantastic. Our low-key evening does have a DIY, of course. All for good reason – we are going to be the star of our own show. And, you should too. You’re the main character of your life – the leading lady or man. This year, you get your own gold envelope…and a cocktail.
This is such an easy DIY and a fun way to celebrate with girlfriends and sisters. Get creative and funny.
How-To:
- Buy or create mini envelopes. We used our Silhouette cutting machine to create gold glitter envelopes.
- Create and cut mini tags to insert into the envelope. We created ‘drink winner’ tags on Microsoft Word.
- Use scissors to cut small slits on the top of cute paper straws, and insert the envelope.
You can prepare a speech if you want to…but the drink, it’s is all yours. Cheers to you!
