Answer
Movie party at home. Have a movie themed party. They sell decorations for this at oriental trading. com and you can also find some movie stuff on the hollywood sites I mentioned above. Watch a cool movie, have popcorn and all kids of candy and junk food. Make or buy pizza and have sundaes. Have a sleep over with the girls if you want. Have a dance if your have room.

Luau, beach Hawaii: Orientaltrading has the coolest decorations and favors for this theme and the cutest tropical invitation in the bottle. Give your guests leis as they come in. Play Limbo, Hula hoop, and have a few grass skirts and everyone (including the guys) have to give hulaing a try. Again if you have room to do this at home or you can rent a small room. Tropical pinata. Twister. Hawaii games: http://www.alohafriendsluau.com/games.html.

Candy theme: Pink tablecloths, pink and white balloons. Make candy bouquets for the tables with short wide mouth vase from the dollar store. Fill 1/3 with peppermint disks. Buy colorful lollipops and put in the vase. Make another one t he same but use candy sticks instead like cherry, lime, etc. You can attach bows to each one with a favor card that says your initial, 16 or thanks for coming to my sweet 16 and then after the party give them out as favors. Get personalized M and Ms to put in small favor bags. Get personalized hershey bar wrappers and little personalized stickers that go on the bottom of hershey's kisses or even hard candy. Buy plate size styrofoam 3 inch thick rounds and wrap in clear cellophane for a big hard candy decorations. you could put a wood dowel in one to make it a sucker. Play twister. For favors those candy necklaces, bracelets ands ring pops and candy lipsticks. They sell inflatable lollipops at Windy City Novelities. Buy a sweet 16 plastic sucker mold. We got 1 for 2.50 on Ebay. We bought 3 bags of colored chocolate at the craft store and 1.50 each and made 27 lolliopops out of that. A bag of 100 lolly bags and ties is 1.99. It was so easy to make. Shindigz sells personalized clear candy jars. Also have cotton candy. Decorate with pink and white tissue balls. Also party cheap sells a sundae tissue decoration.
Sweet games: One game is you melt small pieces of chocolate into small bowls and then you blindfold people one at a time and have them taste and they have to guess what kind of candybar it is. Then have a candy prize for the winner, like a little candy gift basket.

Fill a jar with some type of small candies, maybe personalized M and Ms with a 16 on them or your initials. Have people guess how many and again have a prize for the winner.

Play bingo using Candy hearts as bingo chips.

Twister is a colorful game that goes with candy theme.

Fill a pinata full of popular candy. Sour stuff seems to be in.

You could do a Willie Wonka like contest. Buy these personalized candy bar wrappers and put a few golden tickets inside when you assemble them. Then, hand them out at the party for an activity and have some small door prize for the winners. http://www.4funparties.com/app/index.php...

Neon theme. Bright colors, neon lights and glow in the dark items. They sell lights that go in balloons and all kinds of neon and glow in the dark items at windy city novelitis, oriental trading and U.S. Toy Company. Shop.glogames.com. Glowsource.com

For any theme you choose check out scene setters: www.fun4parties.com.
These are huge plastic murals ke your theme looks so real. We have used these and love them and so cheap. You buy backgrounds and can add things to them.

Party decorations:
shindigz, oriental trading, U.S. Toy Company, partycheap, and many, many more.

Have a Hills party like the MTV show. Decorate with Hollywood backgrounds from fun4parties.com. Tell the girls on the invite to wear Hills type dresses and guys preppy style: give the girls rockstar sunglasses like they wear on the hills from windycity novelities. Have a fashion show. Get stores to donate a few items, have your friends model.
80's prom theme: This would be so cool. Decorate like it is a high school prom from the 80s and everyone has to dress from that time.

The Beatles toddler birthday theme ideas?

Q. We are huge Beatles fan and our son loves them too. He runs to the laptop when we play YouTube videos. Any ideas on decorations and food? Goodie bags? Thanks!!!

Answer
Hi :)
For Beatles party invitations, buy Beatles postcards or draw a yellow submarine on the front of a plain white card. On the inside, write, "Help! us Celebrate [name's] Birthday!" Include all necessary information including time, date, and how to RSVP.
The birthday cake could be a large square chocolate cake with "Beatles" spelled out in colored frosting flowers in order to make a Sgt. Pepper's Cake (it should look like the flower "bed" at the bottom of the album cover).
For food, serve a large submarine sandwich on platters decorated with "yellow submarine" written in script with yellow mustard.
Place "record bowls" on your table. Make them out of old record albums and clean and fill with chips and other side snacks.
Make a "strawberry field" by lining up strawberries on a platter.
Play Beatles music in the background of your party. When the cake is brought out, be sure to play the song "Birthday" from the White Album.
If possible, set up the Beatles Rock Band for Wii, Playstation 3 or XBox 360. Allow guests to play the game during the party and offer prizes for the best scores.
Decorate tables and counters with Beatles albums, CDs, and pictures. Decorate walls with posters of the Beatles, peace signs and British flags.
Give peace necklaces, Beatles buttons and smiley face items for favors; use 60s print bags and tie dye tissue to hold favors.
Stage an "Abbey Road" scene for pictures; use the album cover to create a street scene out of paper. Photograph guests imitating the Beatles on the album cover.

Hope this helped,

Ade :)

What should i do for my 15th birthday party?!?

Chris

I'm not good at parties, and i never have been, bu ti want to do something this year. I have no idea of what to do, and if I should have it at my house or somewhere else. my house is not that big., it would be crowded if i took in more than 25 people. Any ideas? also, its in december, so i cant really go outside, because its the 22nd

Answer
- Bowling.

- Survivor Party

*Decorate with tiki torches, luminaries, and "most coveted"- the immunity idol.

Think balmy and exotic! Bright and colorful is sure to set a tropical ambiance.

Palm fronds and palm trees should line the area.

You can create grass huts out of grocery bags by cutting it into thin strips, and hanging on a card table.

Be sure to cover your patio umbrellas with raffia. You can also use a tropical scene that covers a long wall rather than individual decorations.

Fishnets and seashells are a great accent. You will want to make sure you have plenty of tropical flowers, whether fresh or silk.

Line the area with Hawaiian themed posters and art.

Tiki statues make great table centerpieces. For the evening ambiance, tiki torches are a must.


*Survivor Party Games- "Immunity Challenges"

Gummy worm eating contest. The first team to eat all their worms wins!
Treasure maps. Hunt for selected items around your yard. Make a map out of a brown lunch bag. Burn the edges of the paper for an authentic look.
Tug of war. Tribes face off in a challenge of brute strength.
Obstacle course. Survivors must meet specific challenges such as walking through a balance beam (wood planks placed on cement blocks), untying a rope to get a key, etc.
Limbo and hula hoop contests are also great fun. It's easy planning and everyone is a closet "hula-ist."
A Pearl and Shell game is great fun for the more analytical guest. You will have three shells, and underneath one, you will have a pearl (or whatever item you choose). It's kind of like a magic trick or card game. The dealer moves the three shells around, and the guest chooses which one has the pearl inside.
Another creative game is to split the guests into several groups. Purchase floral cloth fabrics for your tropical theme, and give the fabric to each group. The group has to make the most creative attire possible within five minutes. Examples of attire include skirts, headbands, Speedos... whatever they can imagine! Vote which group has the most creative and fun idea.
Bonfire creation. Tribes have one match and must create the highest fire with only items found around the yard- sticks, leaves, etc. No flammables!
Place bets to see who will be the "ultimate survivor" in the season finale.
Skip the tribal council- no one likes being voted out!

*Costumes/Dress Attire

You can certainly get very creative with your survivor party theme, but most guests will participate if it's easy. Survivor t-shirts and Hawaiian shirts are nice and easy and will guarantee 100% participation. Guests may also choose to wear sarongs or beachcomber hats and sandals. Women get more accessories, with flowers in their hair and shell jewelry.

*Invitations/Printables

Personalize the invitations to say Survivor _____ (group name, organization, neighborhood). Draw or include items such as tiki idols, tiki torches, palm trees, coconuts, etc. You can also glue shells or sand to the invitations.

Another great idea is to visit your local travel agency for Hawaiian travel brochures. Attach your invitation to the brochure to set the stage for your island paradise party.


*music

Hawaiian & Caribbean music should be played in the background. Reggae and Caribbean music are also good to add to the mix. Even though Jimmy Buffett, isn't technically Pacific Rim, he is well known for a tropical paradise theme!

*Food & Drink

Here are some ideas for enticing cuisine: Spiced pork Rice Steamed vegetables Barbeque foods Fresh fruits- pineapple, strawberries, melons, papayas Fresh vegetables Crab salad Roasted bananas Macadamia nuts Hawaiian sweet bread See our theme party recipe cookbook for thousands of recipe ideas.

Tropical paper goods can be found in your local party store.

The best drinks include Margaritas, Mai Tais, Pina Coladas, Bahama Mamas, and Frozen Daiquiris. Be sure to have Hawaiian punch on hand for the non-alcoholic set as well as water for all.

Drinks should be served in pineapple or coconut cups to keep with the theme. They can be found in your local dollar store when they become available.

Twilight themed birthday party ideas?

Kayla B

I'm having a birthday party at a bowling alley but they don't have a twilight them,i'm getting a twilight cake,I already have twilight invites but i need more ideas like plates 4 the party and decorations.please please help me!! P.S my birthday party is on may23th soooo in need help fast!!!!!!!!!

Answer
Hey that's cool...my birthday is May 24th! Anyway, maybe just find red and black plates, spoons/forks, napkins or look at http://www.orientaltrading.com/party-supplies/theme-packs-a1-377341-1-0.fltr online for supplies. Could you maybe get the owners to play the soundtrack on the loud speaker? It just depends on the bowling alley for that part. You could give out toy/candy fangs as a party favor. Have fun!

I also found this at http://www.pepperspollywogs.com/blog/index.php/twilight-book-party/
For your invitations, purchase plastic vampire teethâreadily available during the Halloween seasonâand cut heavy black card stock down to invitation size. Fold the paper over to form an invitation card. On the front, write âBella and Edward invite you toâ¦â in chalk, and provide all of your Twilight party details inside. Hole-punch the card and attach the vampire teeth with a white ribbon. Hand-deliver or mail your invitations to your guests. Make sure to ask them to wear their teeth to your party. You may also ask your guests to dress up as their favorite Twilight character, too.

A good time to hold this party is dusk moving into night ⦠the time when vampires come out to play!

Decorate your party area with black and red balloons, streamers, and tableware. The plastic vampire teeth would also make great napkin rings. Hopefully, it will be raining to give the feel of Forks. Place a sign on the front door, stating âForks, Washingtonâ for authenticity. Make sure to place bright red apples throughout the party area. If you can find Twilight movie posters, even better. Using the Internet, collect all of the best Twilight fan art and create a large collage to place in your party area, too. Scatter red candies all over. These Harry Potter blood pops are another good decoration and treat for this party. Also, Amazon has the Twilight soundtrack, which would be great to have as mood music for your party.

What should I do for my 13th birthday?

birthday party invitations bowling theme image

asdfghjkl;

my birthday is coming up, but I don't know what to do. Every year, I always do the same thing. I invite my friends to my house, and we watch movies, dance, and eat dinner. But I want to do something different for my birthday this year. Does anyone have any ideas?

Answer
Mabey have a winterwondlerland theme if it's close to the autumn winter theme:

WINTER WONDERLAND:
Keep decorations "cool." Use whites and light blue. Chiffon fabrics are inexpensive and are an easy way to add instant mood. Drape tables with white tablecloths and throw the chiffon over that.

Consider using a buffet-style serving. Place boxes underneath the tablecloth to add height and dimension, and add an ice sculpture in the center at the top. How do you do this? You can purchase inexpensive plastic molds in a variety of shapes! If this option is not available, any type of crystal or glass decoration will do. Even a bowl filled with Styrofoam snowballs will work.

You can also purchase quilt stuffing for very little cost, which you can spread around like snow. Cut out snowflakes are easy to make and look great. See the winter wonderland kit for all the needed decorations and supplies.

Other decorations to place around the room can include any winter items and attire you may have, such as skis, sleds, and ice skates. Some holiday decorations may work too, such as snowmen and white lights.

For food and refreshments, think warm and hearty! Provide hot chocolate, cider, or toddies for starters. Whether you offer a full meal or appetizers is up to you, but make aim for "comfort" food. Easy meals include chili, stews, and mashed potatoes. Appetizers could be something like mini quiches, warm cheese (such as brie) and crackers, or a variety of fondues.

What music should you play? How about the winter selection from Vivaldi's "Four Seasons"? Anything cool and classical will work. If it's the holiday season, this type of music will work as well.

Invitations can be simple and elegant, incorporating anything from snow to winter activities. You can purchase a wide variety for little cost. Invite guests to dress in cool, light colors, or if you want to go with a theme such as skiing or ice skating, invite guests to dress accordingly (ski pants can get hot quickly, however!).

Have a fun winter party theme!

and have like a icecream cake

Or a HOLLYWOOD theme:

Inside, set the mood by creating easy and inexpensive decorations to use throughout the room. You can use card stock to create a "Hollywood" sign as well as other movie-themed items such as a megaphone, scene marker, director's chair, and more. Make your table settings as elegant as possible using richly colored tablecloths (such as red, burgundy, or black). Use poster board to create an award statue to place on the refreshment table. Make smaller awards to give each of your guests, inviting each to come to a center stage and podium to accept the award during or after the main meal. Use some white Christmas lights tastefully throughout the room to add some sparkle and ambiance. Create your own "walk of fame" by making stars from poster board with your guests' names and place them on the floor throughout the room.

See the Hollywood decorating kit for all the needed supplies.
Or decorate with purples- royal, gold and silvers- fame, and red for the red carpet. you can get them at walmart for 25 cents.

Invitations should be elegant and formal. Let your guests know that this is a red carpet event and that they should dress in their finest. This is a great excuse to break out those old gowns and tuxedos that have been hiding in the back of the closet (or in the trunk)!

This theme works great as a dinner party. The menu can include anything you like to cook, but keep it on the elegant and formal side. Consider a rich pasta dish or a meat and vegetables option. For the award part of the party, have champagne or sparkling juice for your guests. Choose your awards carefully so that there will plenty of opportunity for a few laughs.

Enjoy your fame!

Happy birthday!

What should we do for my friend's birthday?

Panda Anna

My friend has nothing to do for his 16th birthday on sunday, if there are any guys reading this, what would you want to do for your 16th birthday?

Also, if any girls are reading this, if you were a guy, what would you want to do?

Thanks!

Answer
Sit down with your teen and establish what would make an ideal celebration for both of you.

2
Discuss issues such as noise levels, curfew and appropriate behaviors with your teen before the celebration. Decide if you want to have a special theme for the party, such as a luau or a car inspired party. If you go with a theme, adapt all things that go with the party to that theme, such as invitations, music, food and drinks.

3
Devise a guest list based on your available space and your child's list of critical invitees.

4
Consider a creative location for the party, such as the beach, a roller-skating or ice-skating rink, a bowling alley or a local pizza place.

5
Send out invitations at least two weeks in advance.

6
Devise a menu and buy more food than you think you'll need, especially if teenage boys are coming to the party.

7
If you don't want to cook, order pizza - always a teenage crowd-pleaser.

8
Jazz up the drinks. Although teens will drink a lot of soda, you might want to serve punch or sparkling cider to add to the festive mood.

9
For background or dancing music, buy blank CDs and have your teen and his or her friends make mixes of favorite songs.

10
Consider something special like renting a strobe light and clearing the living room for dancing.

11
Order or make a special cake. This is a milestone birthday.


OR

Sports Theme
Throw a sporting event for your sweet 16 party. Send out invitations with images of his favorite sports team on them. Get real creative and hand out invites the shapes of tickets, or put a copy of the invite inside a sport's water bottle. Instead of the traditional team gear or merchandise, add some personalization. Order life-sized cutouts with yofriends's face and the team's jersey on, and set the cutouts all around the room. Purchase some cutouts of real team players as well. If you choose a basketball team, order basketball balloons, or necklaces with basketballs attached for the guests to wear. Cook food that you would purchase at a sports arena, such as hot dogs, pizza, nachos and pretzels, for the teenagers to eat. Give out candy bars with a picture of your son in the team jersey as thank-you gifts for the guests.




hope it works out all wel for you n your friend..and ohhh, HAPPYY BIRTHDAY to HIM :D :D

And that's for food, decorations, etc
Sure! mine's April 6th!

Answer
Have a sleepover! Make invitations and thank you notes that have a spa theme. You'll need hair stuff, face masks, cool cucumber slices, towels, nail polish, nail files, and giant bowls (Bath and Body Works will be a big help). Ask the girls to bring their bathrobes, toothbrushes, pajamas, and favorite CDs. Play the CDs and take turns painting each other's nails and giving massages. Give out little favor bags with nail polish, samples of face masks, ponytail holders, and a little bottle of perfume.
