Make Your Summer Party Special
Have you ever wondered how you can turn a typical backyard
party into something memorable – a party that will stand out as being unique
and one-of-a-kind? We have you covered! Consider the idea described below.
Many retailers look for unique ways to get customers in
their doors – especially during ‘off seasons’. During the summer months most
families are focused on things like vacations and on getting ready for the next
school year. Sales can be down for things like furniture and appliances. With
that in mind some merchants offer sales – some even have “Christmas In July”
sales.
You can probably see where this is going; why not have a
Christmas In July party? The kids will love it!
Give Some Gifts
You can ask each parent to bring a kid’s gift to be
exchanged or they can bring gifts for their own kids. The important thing is to
have at least one gift for each kid. Of course, if the budget allows, you can
purchase gifts for each child that will be attending. To make this option
affordable you may want to consider some of the items available at your local
dollar store.
Since the weather is warm, it is likely that you will have
the party outdoors. This makes gifts for the outdoors a perfect solution. Look
for items that will give the kids something to do. For instance, you could buy
bottles of bubbles, water guns, jump ropes, inflatable pool toys, and other
inexpensive outdoor items for the kids.
Let’s face it – everyone likes gifts, no matter how old they
may be. You can also give gifts to the adults at your party. Keep it simple. Consider
things like homemade salsa or fudge. If you’re not into the homemade thing you
could give candles, key rings, or other inexpensive items.
Decorations
It just wouldn’t be a Christmas party without some
decorations. Of course, you probably don’t want to drag out all your Christmas
stuff, but you could add a few strands of lights around your outdoor trees,
shrubs and deck railings. You can find strands of solar lights that can be used
year-round to add ambiance to your outdoor living space.
Simple wreaths can be hung and decorated. And if you’re lucky
enough to have an evergreen tree in your yard you can make simple decorations
from construction, artificial flowers, and other items.
Food
Every party needs to include some food. While you might opt
to go with a traditional backyard barbeque meal that includes items cooked on the
grill, you could also add a great dessert that adds a look of Christmas. For
example, you could have Red Velvet cake or a cake with white frosting that is
topped off with fresh strawberries.
The idea is to have a party that is lots of fun for
everyone. Use your imagination and get creative. And please, share your ideas

Merry Christmas!!!
