Getting ready to see the Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2 in theaters next week? Gather all your vampire girlfriends and watch Part One together at a black-and-white-themed party!
I transformed my family room into a haunt fitting for vampires, covering my kids' Star Wars posters with Bella, Edward, and Jacob.
I also covered my husband's Red Wings posters with black and white fabric and hung some white Christmas lights over that. (The white fabric is my mother-in-law's old curtains she wasn't using, and the black fabric is a sheet.) Unfortunately, my camera showed no love for this project and refused to take an un-blurry photo of it.
The food table was the most dramatic part. I bought a white sheer curtain on clearance and hung it with multiple strands of white icicle lights behind it to make the backdrop. I placed an arrangement of black & white flowers and white feathers along with two black taper candles on the table.
The food even fit with the black-and-white theme. I served cupcakes, Oreos, popcorn, cheese & crackers, and chocolate fangs.
Around the room were other small touches, like white candles, a white feather boa, and the sheet music for Bella's Lullaby was placed on the piano. I made little collages of Bella and Edward from each of the previous four movies and hung them on the wall leading down into the family room.
I had prepared two quizzes for my guests: one to sort the vampires into their various covens, and one to match the vampires to their special gift.
The guest with the most correct answers won this gift bag filled with vampy prizes.
After the party, my guests received a little party favor bag.
I made some wrappers featuring each of the book covers in the Twilight series and used them to cover some Hershey's Nuggets candies. I think they turned out cute, although the shiny silver wrappers made it difficult to take a picture!
Here we are at the party! Some friends even dressed like members of the Volturi. I love that the camera decided to give us all red eye and I didn't bother to fix it.
