How to Achieve Holiday Party Greatness

Sure, you could throw up some streamers, put some beers in a cooler and <em>not</em> have a girl walking around in a dress with flutes of champagne attached to it for your holiday party. Or you could procure these five things instead. Great, so we’re in agreement.

LEATHER REPORT

It’s Just Leather Confetti Is All

This is: Confetti. But it’s cut from multicolor Moore & Giles leather. So it’s leather confetti.
Which is good for: Sprinkling on your dining room table. Throwing in the air. Tiny coasters for hamsters.

BOT SERVICE

This Party Could Use a Robot Bartender

This is: A fully automated cocktail maker with over 1,000 preprogrammed recipes that you can command to make drinks from your smartphone. Oh, and it has LED lights that sync to your music. Oh, and that’s weird but still pretty cool.
Which is good for: Watching it do all of that.

So Much Pie and Cake Happening Here
PIE KINGDOM COME

So Much Pie and Cake Happening Here

This is: That “turducken of cakes” thing you’ve been hearing about. Yep, it still exists. And yep, it’s a three-story conglomeration of pies baked into cakes. It says it’s sold out online, but that’s only for Thanksgiving. All yours by December.
Which is good for: Eating. We’re going with eating.

DROP TO IT

Taking Music Requests via Tweet

This is: Drop by Jawbone, an app that hooks up to your Spotify or Rdio account and lets your friends add songs to the party playlist by tweeting at it with a designated hashtag.
Which is good for: Never hearing “Can you play...” ever, ever again.

Just Add Champagne. And Girl.
TABLE-BODIED

Just Add Champagne. And Girl.

This is: A table that’s also a dress that someone wears that holds champagne and stuff while she walks around as if everything’s normal.
Which is good for: Pretty much just that one thing.
