The Merry and Bright Printable Party Set is available for purchase in our Etsy shop here.  Or buy it as part of our Christmas Printable Package and save.  We asked our readers what is the biggest challenge you face when it comes to entertaining and the holidays.  The number one answer we received was time.  

So we created a our Christmas Printable Package so that you’d have everything you need to celebrate the whole season all in one place, for one low price.  We included 5 different sets for entertaining -including this one, as well as gift tags, advent activity printable cards, gift card holders, Christmas art, and Christmas joke lunch box jokes.  We bundled them all up to save you over 60%.  Purchase the Christmas Printable Package here. 

We’re hoping that this year you can spend a little less time preparing, and more time actually celebrating the holidays!

Merry and Bright Printable Party Set

If you love colour this is the perfect party set for you.  We included lots of fun details, in such pretty colours.

Place Settings

Let’s start with each place setting for our table.  We designed 12 different fun conversation starters to get things rolling over dinner.

There are also tent folding place cards that you could also use for food labels in coordinating colours.

We also created the cutest Menu Cards, that you can print out and fill in with a marker.

There are also some fun straw flags.  Just print them out, cut them, and glue them on to paper straws for a festive look.

Centre Piece

For this table I started with a fun ombre table runner -you can see how I DIY’d this runner here.

Next we layered on some playful paper honeycomb balls and diamonds.  And then I added some fresh greens all around them.

We added some tall candles for a little sparkle, and then the best party -vintage ornaments.  

I’ve been collecting vintage Christmas ornaments for years.  A few are from antique stores, but mostly I pick them up at thrift stores when ever I see them.  They aren’t in abundance, and they’re very saught after, so you’ve got to pick them up whenever you see them.

This table was so much fun to put together. And when my dinner guests walked into it, they literally squealed with delight.  

Over on the buffet we hung our lovely “Merry and Bright” banner.

And then we used more honeycomb balls, and diamonds.  There’s a little dessert over here to.  I originally shoot this party on a rather dark day, so you might notice that there’s two different desserts.  The day I had this party it was much brighter so I re-shot it, only problem was we had already eaten the cupcakes.  ;). Luckily I had a little cake for that night.

Here you can see how adorable the cupcake picks are, and how they can dress up some plain cupcakes for a party.

But they also dressed up this little store bought cake beautifully too.  I think they’d look pretty adorable stuck in just about anything.  They would also be adorable as gift tags or as favour tags.  The possibilities are pretty much endless.

This party was so much fun to create.  I hope it inspires you for some of your get togethers this Christmas. 

You can purchase the Merry and Bright Party Set on its own here.  Or order it as part of our Christmas Printable Package here.  

With a pretty, colourful, festive get together like this, life really is a party!
