Pirate Costumes Ideas & Party Tips Shiver
me timbers!
With
the the mega-hit franchise Pirates
of the Caribbean (starring Johnny
Depp and Orlando
Bloom), the pirate theme party has never been more popular with kids, teens,
AND adults. And
by pillaging and plundering the Net, planning a do-it-yourself costume along with
pirate party food and fun has never been easier.
In keeping with
the theme, use pirate
clip art to make your own easy party invitations. Begin
with a hearty... "Ahoy! Come walk the plank" (or...
shake your booty!) and inside tell you guests to chart a
course to your house with location, time & date.
To
decorate, use anything from sand & sea shells, to skulls & crossbones,
to Pirates of the Caribbean posters tacked up in strategic locations. Just
be sure to have plenty of pirate party food on hand : Fish
'n Chips, Golden
Nuggets (chicken nuggets) Goldfish crackers and, of course, a festive Treasure
Chest Cake you can make yourself. Easier still, make a simple chocolate-frosted
sheet cake and decorate using a skull
& crossbones template.
Drinks? Serve
them from the appropriate jugs or bottles marked with an "XXX"
(root beer for the kids, Caribbean rum for the adults.)
Games &
activities should be lots of fun for everyone - such as a pirate
Scavenger
Hunt, or check out other creative pirate party entertainment
ideas found here.
When the
party's over, thank your guests for coming with goodie bags filled
with pirate booty such as toy compasses, foil-wrapped candy coins,
or other treasure.
