The guests all brought Oscar inspired dished and then we all voted on the best (you couldn't vote for your own). The winner received a sealed PriceWaterhouseCoopers envelope with two movie tickets to ShowPlace Icon theaters in Chicago. Guests also completed Oscar ballots ($10 buy-in) and the winner received the money pot and an envelope with movie tickets!

A glitter runner (wrapping paper) added pizzazz to the table.
