Cinco de Derby 2018

Koozies, Napkins & Cup from Sequins & Lipstick Shop

Linen Derby Cocktail Napkins c/o Paddock Threads

One of my favorite parties every year to throw is a Derby party. Growing up riding and owning a horse I always look forward to Triple Crown season. Before each race my family texts each other our picks for who will win. It’s a fun tradition even though I usually just pick mine based on a cute name. Did you expect anything else from me? 😉

This year the derby landed on Cinco de Mayo so I decided the theme was “Cinco de Derby”. I reached out to my go-to party supply source, Sequins & Lipstick shop to help me design some custom koozies, napkins and cups. Didn’t they turn out so fun?

I decorated with old finds from Oriental Trading and Target to stick with the theme. You wouldn’t believe it but the morning of my party my hot water heater broke and leaked water all over the basement. I had to clean up, get a new one and install it all just hours before the party… on top of getting food, setting up, etc. Somehow I just barely pulled it off.
