So I didn't win the iPad, and I didn't win best sweater...boooo - but I still had a great time at the party. For all of you who read my making of my Making A Tacky Christmas Sweater post last week...here is the final product! My original plan was to make a cape out of the fabric - but after some more thought I decided to go all out and do a vest. {I'm laughing right now remembering the lady at Joann Fabrics and the look she gave me when I asked for a yard and a half of this fabric - priceless, lol!} It took me several tries and lots of pinning and re-pinning to get the full Santa driving a tractor perfectly placed - and once it was finally in place I started to construct the vest all by gluing {no sewing was involved} and finishing it off with a little {ok a lot} of tinsel. What do you think? Award winning? You would have voted for me right? LOL!!!

As promised, I have included lots of pictures from the party below. One of my favorite things was laughing at people as they arrived to the party. After all of the talk in the office, and all of the secrets surrounding what people were going to wear - it was hilarious to see everyone's tacky garb. Enjoy the pics!
