Open House, Come & Go As You Please!

Saturday, December 9th
3-9pm at the Palmer House

Ugly Ornaments?

We have a Palmer family tradition of taking whatever inside joke or goofy thing that makes us laugh and hanging it up on the tree. This includes such classics as…

 

  • Legless Elf Hanging From His Crotch
  • Murderous Wooden Archangel
  • Handstitched SISI (an Austrian Empress) coaster, turned upside down so it says ISIS

Make Your Own!

We’ll have a workshop in the backyard with googly eyes, glitter, popsicle sticks, pipe cleaners and glue guns – plus whatever we found in the junk drawer. Feel free to bring whatever trinket or oddball thing you have lying around that requires embellishment. Already have a weird ornament? Bring it along! Don’t want to bother with the whole thing? No prob, it’s just a fun theme – we just wanted to hang out with you anyway 🙂 We’ll have a special judging display for everyone to vote at 7pm…

Judging Categories:

  • Ugliest 🏆
  • Funniest 😂
  • Cutest 🩷
  • Most Bizarre 🤪
  • Pure Nightmare Fuel 💀

Bring A Mug!

We’re into sustainability, and would love to not have a sink full of dishes – so we’ll be asking you to bring a mug. The more unique the better, so it doesn’t get confused with someone else’s. We’ll be serving up these mug worthy food and drinks…

  • Chili
  • Some sorta soup?
  • Hot Chocolate
  • Cider
  • Beer
  • Wine
  • Cookies

Spoons and napkins provided! Along with a mug cleaning station.

    What can I bring?

    • Yourself!
    • Your mug
    • An ugly ornament, or something to decorate and make into an ornament
    • We’re good on food and drink, but feel free to bring some cookies or some sort of dessert that fits in a hand or mug if you really want
    • Something warm to wear in the backyard or rooftop deck
