Inspired by The Great Gatsby, Colette spent months envisioning and planning a Gatsby New Year's Eve Party! Invitations were sent to come and sip champagne and Charleston into the new year. She searched consignment stores and antique stores for months and acquired a nice collection of silver serving pieces and champagne glasses. Party decor was lots of silver and gold streamers, giant confetti (snipped from metalic tissue paper), and balloons, balloons, and more balloons!

Clean up? It happened the next day. Zzzzz...
