Thanksgiving 2006

JUST ADD GUESTS™ Recipe

We want to make Thanksgiving easy for you to this year.  Here is an easy, step-by-step Just Add Guests™ theme that is not only a “recipe” for success, but it gives you time to stop and smell the stuffing! Do it all or just do pieces and parts…but do it without stress.  What a relief…

DIRECTIONS

Save the Date

Especially since this is a “holiday weekend…,” consider sending out a save the date postcard or an email.

Invitation

•  Add fall leaf confetti to your own invite/flier or the store-bought variety. Easy to do and still unique.

Personalize Your Party!!  With a custom invitation Party411’s Creations for You

The Approach

• Install a personalized Thanksgiving banner from your gutter with our special banner hanging magnets.

First Impression Decor

• Add fall leaves around doors, on railings, over the fireplace.

• Assemble Giant Corn stocks with leaves at the base for a photo opportunity…nothing like props for good pix!

Personalize Your Party!!  Place pilgrim cut-outs with your face(s) welcoming all or a turkey with your face, George Bush’s face or the face of your choice (you can even add a speech bubble) or a Female and/or male pilgrim photo op for your guests to stand behind for pictures.

Tabletop

Set the table as follows

• Choose your Thanksgiving Paper plate, cups, napkins.

• Scatter Tissue Autumn Leaves with a 12” long die-cut leaf at each place.

• Add a 10.5” Gold Charger Plates atop each leaf

• Place your patterned plate or even your own china atop. 

• Add Fall Leaf Confetti liberally around the table.

• Add Harvest Corn taper candles on either side.

A little more formal…

• Put  Beaded Chair Tie in burgundy or gold on the back of each chair

• Add matching table runner.

Buffets

• Put out pumpkins, gourds, fall plants mixed in with your serving pieces.

• Use our themed small and/or large leaf bowl for snacks.

• On your dessert buffet, put a Cupcake Tree with cupcakes decorated for Thanksgiving.

 Favors

• Put a Pilgrim Hat on each chair for some great candid shots.

Personalize Your Party!!  Place a Party411 Personalized Thanksgiving Custom Candy Bar at each place specific to you and yours.

Thanks For coming! Gift

• A set of taper candles, already boxed, is a nice take home gift.

• A Thanksgiving CD with holiday songs (for guests and other friends and family).

 Personalize Your Party!!  A CD (chocolate or recorded with your favorites) with a personalized cover.
