It’s all about the color palette<\/b> when you’re planning a seasonal birthday party. Our fall party ideas are centered around rusts, olives and dark reds<\/b>. When you’re getting your decorating ideas together, take your inspiration from these colors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First Things First…Fall Party Ideas to Set the Mood:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Now that summer’s over bring in those large terra cotta pots you had outside <\/b>(terra cotta’s in our fall color palette) and fill them with gold, rust, maroon and orange pots of chrysanthemums. You can plant them outside when the party’s over so they’ll do double duty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tie each pot with a big olive green cloth ribbon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Start a roaring fire in the fireplace (if you have one) and have a good stack of logs ready next to it. The logs are also part of your decorations – they totally tie in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you don’t have a fireplace, consider setting up a fire pit or chimenea outside<\/b> if it’s a nice autumn day. In fact, this is a great thing to do even if you also have a fire going inside. They’re relatively inexpensive and would really add to the party atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arrange seating around it and have sticks, marshmallows, graham crackers and chocolate bars at the ready for s’mores<\/b>. Let your guests come and go from inside to outside, warming their hands on their cups of hot apple cider (spiked if you like), mulled wine or hot buttered rum<\/b>. Just imagine all the incredible smells!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Table Setting Suggestions for a Fall Birthday Party:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Remember the ribbons around your terra cotta planters? Pick up that olive green again with a table runner and add real fall leaves across it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Place two 3″ x 3″ dark red, and two 3″ x 6″ rust colored tapers on either side of a large, shallow, terra cotta pot or ceramic bowl filled with red, yellow and\/or green apples (either real or wooden will do) to complete the look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Use cloth napkins in rust, coasters in the shape of leaves and maroon plates. Simple and elegant<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’re looking for a more elaborate centerpiece, and a do-it-yourself fall party idea<\/b> at that, find a medium to large, nicely shaped pumpkin and cover it with chrysanthemums (stay within the color palette…no purples or whites!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I know it seems a shame to cut the heads off these lovely flowers but…we do what we must. So, just clip those heads right off and hot glue them all over the pumpkin until it’s completely covered. Cool, huh? It’s a guaranteed conversation starter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fall Party Menu Suggestions:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Following the color palette into the drinks<\/b>, serve any or all of these warm-you-up beverages:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
