Actually, choosing a theme for a party is usually the hardest step. Once chosen, it guides all of the party planning steps. See below how easy it is to plan a sunflower party!
Invitations: The starting point for any party is sending out invitations. And if you send out Sunflower themed invitations your guests will know immediately that the beautiful, happy plant is going to play a key role at your party. To find the perfect invitations (or wonderful ideas for invitations) go to Google.com/Images and type in the term "sunflower invitations".
Decor: Decorations, centerpieces and paper goods all make up 'd矇cor'. Decorations can include yellow and brown streamers, balloon bouquets, hanging lanterns and other such items. You can also purchase faux sunflowers at craft stores or silk flower shops and incorporate them throughout the room or location. Of course the centerpiece should, if possible, consist of real sunflowers. Talk to your florist or supermarket floral department about securing the necessary flowers for your party. Tie an over-sized organza or satin yellow ribbon around the vase for a dressed up look.
As for paper goods, you can always use yellow plates, napkins and utensils for a cheery look. Or perform a search on "Sunflower Paper Goods" to see what is available. Gracioushome.com has beautiful sunflower plates and napkins.
Cake and/or Cupcakes: Of course the cake and/or cupcakes should be decorated with sunflowers! Once again turn to Google Images for wonderful inspiration. Print out the decorated cakes and cupcakes you like best and take them to your bakery to see if they can replicate them for you.
Sunflower Party Favors: It is always a lovely gesture to send your guests home with a small favor as a token of your appreciation. Theme related favors include flower shaped cookies and soaps. Or give a sunflower seed favor or plant favor. Favor boxes with a faux flower on top or the image of one on the box will turn any favor into a sunflower favor!
