Use flamingo-decorated supplies for a fun thematic party.
A flamingo party is a fun and colorful idea for a child's birthday or for adults who want a tropical-themed summer gathering. There are a variety of inexpensive supplies such as decorations, costumes, refreshments and party favors that can be used to achieve a great atmosphere and a successful flamingo-themed party.
Decorations
Use flamingo lawn ornaments to decorate your home or yard for the party. Buy hot pink streamers and balloons to adorn the walls and ceilings. Items like inflatable palm trees add a feeling of the tropics. String pink lights around the room or yard to add ambiance to the party.
Tableware
Choose pink or flamingo-printed plates, cups and napkins. Use pink straws with flamingos or straws with umbrellas to keep with the tropical theme. Find small flamingo gifts and ornaments like beads or stuffed flamingos for centerpieces that guests can keep after the celebration as a party favor.
Costumes
Encourage your guests to dress in festive tropical attire such as grass skirts and flowered shirts---or even like flamingos in bright shades of pink. Give floral leis or pink-feathered boas as party favors that guests can wear during the celebration to match the theme.
Refreshments
Design an "all pink" menu starting with pink drinks like pink lemonade or strawberry smoothies. Serve a fruity watermelon soup or a salad with berries for a fresh and light appetizer. Make a naturally pink main course like salmon or shrimp, or add a small amount of red food coloring to a dish to add a pink hue. Bake pink strawberry cupcakes for a fruity and pink dessert.
