Planning a Cookie Exchange – The invitations

by Donna on November 16, 2009

For the last 2 years I’ve hosted a Christmas Cookie Exchange. It’s always a fun night, and everyone goes home with plenty of yummy cookies!

I just finished making the invitations for this year’s Cookie Exchange.

I originally had a completely different idea for the invitations, but I settled on a “candy cane” theme.

I think they turned out pretty nice!

Along with the basic invitation I included:

A sheet with instructions for the cookie exchange (with an explanation of what to bring and what to expect).

A a blank recipe card, which the receipent will fill out with the recipe for the cookies that they are bringing. (I’ll put all of the recipes into a little recipe booklet for everyone).

I also created a wrap label for the envelopes.

I hope the rest of the party comes together this easily!

You did such a nice job. I don’t think I’ve ever received an invitation this pretty before.

Very cute! I just started working on my invitations for my neighborhood cookie exchange. Any advice over your last two years of experience?
