This is my second year as a member of Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Team Grandmama's Girls. Last year, we did an assortment of different fundraisers, including a Premier Jewelry Party, a yard sale, a musical cabaret, and a paint party with Tana of My Paint Party.
Out of all of the ways we raised funds, the paint party was the most enjoyable. So much so that we decided to do it again this year.
The other girls on the team were nice enough to let me cater the event. I am considering this my first official catering job and I think it turned out pretty darn good!
This was the full spread, before all of us hungry women attacked it!
We started the day out with a mustache picture - It's not really a party unless everyone is wearing a mustache!
Cucumber Sandwiches with Whipped Dill Cream Cheese.
The cutest little BLTs you've ever seen!
Veggie Shooters with Homemade Ranch Dressing.
Rainbow Fruit Skewers.
Checkerboard Cake. There are no pictures of the inside of the cake, because when we cut into it, it kind of fell apart. This was my first time attempting this cake and I know what I will do differently next time. Lesson learned!
My mom brought these desserts and they were just delicious!
All of the paintings turned out great!
Mom and me with our paintings! Such a fun day!
We raised around $250 for Making Strides with this party - not too shabby!!
It was a great event and your snacks were delicious!!!! Go team " Grandmama's Girls!"
