Host a Holiday Spa Party

“I’d love a cup of neon red party punch and, oh, pass the cheese doodles please”…NOT! Come on…over are the summer weddings and endless showers, no more afternoons or evenings filled with boring games, (who made those up anyways?) watching the guest of honor open countless department store gifts, and eating cake. And speaking of games, what about those prizes you win? You know what I’m talking about! The ones that you take home and feed to the black hole of assorted and unwanted (sorry, it’s true) would be bling blings.

Today’s informed, evolved women, unite and say “Enough Already!” But hey, things are looking up, because, it’s your turn to host, thank the Goddess! So lead the way, begin the trend, slam on the breaks to boresville, and show them how it’s really done! While visions of friends and family, massages and manicures, food and fun, dance in your head, you’re in REM dreaming of pedicures, caterers, appetizers and Zen!

They’ll be no little sausages or pigs in a blanket (how sad!) at your soiree, no sir-ee. You’re thinking fresh-and delicious, simple-yet elegant, relaxing-with a splash of sparkle on the side, and a sublime serving of creative, contagious fun that permeates a fabulous flair.

Let us stroll down Gift Avenue for a spell and speculate what we think women really want. I don’t know about you, but this is what I hear from women everywhere, everyday: “I don’t have enough time for myself”, “Relax, what’s that?”, and while some women spend the proper amount of time shopping for themselves, most shop much more for everyone else. Meet the classic case of “do for everyone else first, and if there is any time left, do a little something for me”, like that’s really gonna happen. Let the gift be useful, something just for them, something to inspire them to relax and unwind, something when they think of, or use their gift, they have fond thoughts of you. Nothing pricey, but pleasingly personable, not mass-produced mindless gifts, and please, they should not have to play that touchy-feely “what’s in the bag” game to get it. Your guests will enjoy “Gifts of Beauty”, handmade with love, presented to them with style and a smile…now that’s what I’m talking about!

So where does a girly girl with sumptuous taste turn to, to throw the best bash of the season? Spa-la-la-la-la…right here, right now, read on…
