you have kissed the Blarney Stone, everyone can enjoy the
spirit of St. Patrick's Day. Decorating for a St. Patrick's
Day bash is easy - use green, green, and more green! |
Luck
of the Irish Party Ideas
Here are a few
party ideas & decorating tips to help you get started thinking like
the Irish!
The key to pulling off a coordinated
event: Evoke your theme throughout the affair. Whether that theme is as
general as a season or a feeling, or as specific as a special flower, it should be the subtle thread that ties
everything together. Your location, invitations, flowers, menu,
cake, and favors should all cleverly reflect one common concept.
Then, get as creative as you can!
If creativity is your
thing, here is an idea for a unique and fun invite: Purchase
Green Carnations
and cut a strip of rainbow-colored paper
or a shamrock to write your details on and attach it to the
carnation. Tell your guests "With any Luck O' the Irish, you will
find your Leprechaun here!" Your friends will flood to your
"makeshift pub" for a good time!
Setting the Mood:
Celebrate St. Patrick's
Day with a gathering that's all Irish. Set the mood with lively

Table
Decorations
For your tables, stick
with more green! If you don't have a green tablecover in the linen
closet - no problem, use a:
For your centerpieces, make your own centerpiece. Purchase a round clear glass cylinder vases ( 8", 10", or 12"
height). Make sure opening at the top of the vase is about 3 1/2
inches. Fill vases with
33" Green Beads
Add an oasis cage floral cage to the
top of the vase. Purchase several dozen green carnations from your
local floral outlet. Cut
end of stem under water & then immerse the fresh cut flower stems in
water with flower food for several hours before arranging. When the carnations are ready, cut the stems again as you
place them into the oasis cage to make the arrangement. Cut your
stems so that they are about 2 inches long, then push them into
the oasis cage. Continue adding flowers until the entire cage is
covered. For a whimsical touch tie some green or white feather
together with floral wire and stick them down into the top of the
flowers. (Products for this your arrangement are available at craft &
floral supply stores).
Tie napkins up with
Shamrock Bracelets for a festive display.
