Football Creations For You

The Turkey Bowl
A Thanksgiving Football Extravaganza!

The first thing that comes to mind about his party is that you should put easy chairs around the dining room table, but I guess that's not possible, is it?? However, since football is a mainstay, you may want to consider theme-ing your party around it.

Turkey Bowl Invitations

Kick off your party with a fabulous invitation. We have some fun Turkeybowl invitations that you can personalize to suit your traditions.

Or invite everyone to a "Touch Football Thanksgiving" play-by-play instead of the traditional Thanksgiving dinner (this also works for weekend entertaining for friends from out of town). At your local party store, I am sure they have football shaped invitations or you can make one on your home computer! Or you can use these football invitations.

Orange Ticket InvitationOur biggest seller are football ticket invitations.  You get to use your own wording, choose from nine colors and can order as few as 30.  So these are perfect for Thanksgiving, Saturday’s and a college football party or Sunday when the pros play.

Tell your guests to come dressed for "football" whether they are a player or a spectator. They'll be relieved they don't have to dress up!

Thanksgiving and Football Decorations and Party Supplies

Thanksgiving Turkey Lifesize CutoutStart with a giant straw turkey at the front door (you can probably find one at your local craft store) and outfit it with one of your local team's jersey's and a cap. Add a speech bubble above Tom's head that says, "I'll PASS this Thanksgiving!" Get it?? 

Party411 has a lifesize cutout of a turkey that we'll add your face to - your guests will love it!

As soon as your guests enter, start the party. Give them each a velour football hat and they become part of the decor. These are fabulous and fun for photos.

Then, if your fans are fanatical like most fans are, give each guest some body paint to use to decorate themselves with your team colors, and they'll love it!

As soon as they're done, let them pose with an inflatable football. Cool. Different. Or have them stand behind a football themed photo op for some great pictures and laughs!

Have your children (or do it yourself) make large leaves and hang them from the ceiling in the foyer or wherever the ceiling allows. Each leaf should have the name of one of your guests...it's a nice welcome!

Football Thanksgiving Decorations and Party SuppliesA simple centerpiece could be a fall tinsel wreath with a football sitting in the middle. Scatter foil-wrapped chocolate footballs around the bottom as confetti (and watch them disappear). Or we have football confetti.

If you want to save yourself some time cleaning up, you may want to use our football plates and just throw the stuff away instead of washing it. Buy some orange and brown ribbon to tie around the napkins for a final touch.

Centerpieces are an important part of any Thanksgiving festivity. The football players will need a quick energy boost when the game is over, and, for a more informal side table, consider using grass field table cover and spread whistles, clackers and maracas around for decoration. They’ll come in handy later when you’re watching the game.

Menu

Personalized Turkeybow Beer Bottle LabelTraditional Thanksgiving fare works (if they played touch football before dinner, they've worked up an appetite, that's for sure--if they're playing afterwards, you'll think you're watching the game in slow-motion). You may want to use a football mold for the stuffing, the Jell-O and make a football cake for dessert.

Hot chocolate, coffee and mulled cider are great for keeping everyone warm while they are watching the game. Make sure to have plenty of water available as well. Even if it is chilly out the players will work up a sweat during the game. And serve cold beer while everyone is relaxing in front of the TV (watching football of course!). You can make your beverages extra special with personalized bottle labels on your beer and water.

For something different, you may want to use a football piñata filled with all sorts of goodies for a different style dessert extravaganza.  Don't forget the piñata filler set that is filled with candy and toys.  You may also want to get a piñata blindfold and bat for the game.

Activities

A touch football game, what else? Well, watching football, decorating football cookies, talking football, football trivia and all that.

Have some mini-megaphones ready for spectators and let them all be cheerleaders. Football whistles, pompoms and even a baton or two. Imagine how much fun they will have, even if they protest otherwise!
