The Oscars are this Sunday and if you are throwing an Oscars viewing party, here are a few really great party décor ideas I’ve rounded up for you.
This Clapperboard can easily be made with foam core, chalkboard paint and chalk. I’d use it on the food buffet or if I was having a sit down dinner, I’d create one for each place setting and use it as a placemat alternative.
Did you know…
A clapperboard is a device used in filmmaking and video production to assist in the synchronizing of picture and sound, and to designate and mark particular scenes and takes recorded during a production. The sharp “clap” noise that the clapperboard makes can be identified easily on the audio track, and the shutting of the clapstick can be identified easily on the separate visual track. The two tracks can then be precisely synchronised by matching the sound and movement.
A cute and easy way to dress up a beverage glass for your big shindig. Check the hair accessory aisle for the bows which will save you from crafting your own.
Who knew a Ken Doll could be turned into an Oscar statue? Glue a piece of florist foam between the hands and insert flowers. Fresh flowers will last through the night.
A little computer time and you can create fun labels for your bottled beverages.
Every 3+ hours awards show calls for popcorn and why not give it a chic look by creating cones made from decorative cellophane and propping them in champagne glasses. The silver tray adds a touch more glam!
Dollar Store plastic glasses and bowls take on a glamorous feel when you spray paint them (on the outside) with gold paint. Use them to serve individual serving of candy and treats.
I don’t know if my husband will play along with this one but I’m going to give it a try. Throughout the show, jot down the names of actors that take the prize of categories you create.
Category ideas:
Best Acceptance Speech
Best Hair
Best Men’s Shoes
Best Looking Couple
Best Bling
Most Thankful
Best Potential Couple
If you’re having an Oscar party this weekend, have fun & cheers!
