We host an Ugly Sweater Party every year during the Christmas season, 4th year in a row for 2014!

No hoity toity food, decorations or attire here. Take a look at how I organized a fun, cocktail party for the season.

Start off with Christmas themed appetizers like a pigs in the blanket wreath, cheese tree and veggie tree.

Or how about these cute reindeer donuts, simply assembled with chocolate mini donuts, mini twist pretzels, peanut m&ms and round pearl sprinkles!

Our parties always have alcohol so it's a necessity to provide water but decorate the bottles to fit the theme.

Show off your ugly sweaters at a photo booth made with wrapping paper and tacky garland and bows. It was a big hit with all of our friends!

Set up a voting station and have prizes for the top 3! We always have a 1st place trophy and 2 dollar store tacky items, like socks and reindeer antlers. It gets people mingling!

See your ugly sweaters next year!
