Show host Jeanne Benedict helps Debi (the party host) throw an all natural
Organic Party. First they create a living wreath with herbs and recycled baskets. Next they decorate a glass vase by creating stoppers for the top from recycled items like door knobs, beads, plates and glasses. The decorated vases are the centerpiece for the buffet table that Jeanne and Debi setup and decorate with clusters of rocks and succulents. Then they create all natural soaps with ingredients like oatmeal, lavender, menthol crystals and orange peel. A soap-making station is setup in the party space where the guests can create their own organic soaps during the party. To complement the organic theme of the party, Jeanne and Debi head to the kitchen to make dishes that are completely organic -- two types of stuffed focaccia sandwiches, turkey spinach goat cheese and a sausage provolone kalamata olive. Then they create a tri-colored layered terrine using the natural food to create three distinct colorful layers.
This party is rated 4 on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the most difficult, and is geared toward the skills of a frequent entertainer.
