Tips For Keeping It Cute and Casual
- The absolute last thing you need at the holidays is to pile on more stress. That’s what’s so great about an ugly sweater party. It’s a casual, cute and creative way to bring people together around the holiday season.
- Don’t sweat the sweater party! You don’t have to worry about dressing pretty for this holiday party. Each person’s ugly sweater brings such joy and laughter to the party.
- Everyone loves finding the perfect ugly sweater to wear! And it can be as easy as a quick stop on Amazon.
- For the table runner, I used wrapping paper from the Joy Creative Shop 2023 Holiday Collection. As you can see, festive wrapping paper is such a perfect way to easily decorating the table for a holiday party!
