I don’t know about you, but once the calendar rolls over to September, I find myself starting to think about Christmas and the whole holiday season. I start looking for gifts to pick up here and there before the mad rush. I start to look at new recipes and decor. It’s always fun browsing through all the new decorations for the home and yard and trying to come up with what sort of look I want everything to have. I start to wonder about whether I’ll be throwing a party of some kind or attending any office or home parties over the holidays.

September is a great time to start thinking about all things festive and it’s certainly not too early to start planning a holiday party. Many company office parties, corporate events, fundraisers, and business open houses happen in early December, often times because availability dwindles as December rolls by. Early December to mid-December is perfect for a holiday office party or event because it helps to get everyone in the spirit, and that good cheer usually keeps going right into the New Year.

I’m showcasing several of my Holiday and Winter Party invitation designs in order to stimulate some ideas for your own parties this winter. Whether you are wanting a rustic plaid winter theme; a red and white snowflake theme; a red, green and gold theme; or a midnight navy and gold theme, I think you’ll agree that any of these designs shown here would certainly set the tone for your special occasion. There are so many ways to Celebrate the Season!

I hope these pretty winter party invitations inspire you to get planning your own festive celebration like a house party, office party, company party, winter ball, charity gala or open house. I suggest the ice pearl paper for any of the gold type designs as it has a subtle sparkle that works so well with simulated gold effects and on lighter colors like white. And if you are planning an upscale, high-end event, please consider double thick ice pearl paper for a gorgeous look and feel. Double thick ice pearl paper is available as an upgrade after purchase, so contact me for a quote on that if you really want to wow your guests. A minimum of 25 invites apply to the double thick papers (25, 50, 60, 70, 80 etc.).
