{PARTY} Oscar Party Ideas

The Oscars are a great excuse to have a party! Adults, appys, desserts and a built in theme- sold! Truth be told that in the years post babies most of the nominated movies might as well be foreign films because I have not even heard of many of them. Confession: the only nominated film I've seen is Inside Out! So without friends & food the Oscars are a real snooze over here. One of my favorite things about having a party is creating an idea board, this may not be fun for others and that's OK! I made one for you! From the invitations, to the decor, snacks, desserts and even a crafty DIY favor; I've got you covered. Scroll down for sources & links to the recipes and DIY's (want more ideas check out my Oscar Board)
