Handmade Christmas Party Inspiration

What happens when a group of wedding creatives, who don’t have traditional office spaces, want to have a ‘traditional’ office Christmas party? They style one, of course! Dart DJs hosted the bash and had the party moving all night with their all vinyl set. GATHER EventsJesi Haack Design, + The Love Riot worked together to create some super fun + festive holiday-inspired decor – all crafted from seemingly mundane office supplies! Such a rad idea, right? And the best part about this party inspiration is that every detail was a do-able DIY + could be easily recreated by those of you who help throw your company’s holiday fête or want to host a themed Christmas bash! Here’s a bit more about the party from the designers:

Being in the event industry, most of us are not part of a traditional 9-5 office structure. It was fun to channel cubicle culture for one night, grab our Post-its, Solo cups, paper plates, and get to designing. We transformed the Forge photo studio into a festive interpretation of an actual office party full of colorful office supplies and a whole lot of holiday cheer.

And check out the hilarious solo cup garland above and, below, the office supply holiday tree composed of manilla envelopes, paperclip garland, and ornaments filled with desktop supplies. Love it!

The food station included GATHER’s paper plate installation and Whoa Nelly’s pizza box stands filled with their office favorites like nachos, tacos and of course pizza.
