Inauguration Day Parties - Sherri Foxman on Good Company

Our very own Sherri Foxman (aka the Party Girl) recently appeared on a local morning show "Good Company" to talk about Inauguration Day Parties.

Even though it was early in the morning, Sherri and the staff had a great time! Here is a clip from the show!

Here are a few pictures Julie took during the taping!

Gee, thanks! We’re blushing…

We love hearing from our customers about their parties…especially when it includes good news about how much they loved our personalized party supplies!
 
A client in California just sent us this e-mail and included some pictures that we thought were too fun not to share! 

“Not only were these life-sized cut-outs and the personalized water-bottle labels a huge hit at our party, but Party411 really made sure we got everything we needed to give our event that special touch.  Not only will I use Party411 again, but several of my friends and family will for their events."

Decorate your table with foil wrapped chocolates

Many people ask the party planners here at Party411.com what are hi impact ways to decorate that don’t cost an arm and a leg. We usually run down a list of options, (balloon bouquets, crepe paper streamers) and the one that no one expects to hear is foil wrapped chocolates. They really are a fantastic way to decorate. We use foil wrapped candies in our parties all of the time. Usually it’s “edible confetti” of sorts that we sprinkle on our tables. Here is a picture from an Ohio State Bar Mitzvah (see the footballs?)

You can get just about anything in a foil wrapped chocolate; footballs, basketballs, eyeballs, dice, hearts, stars, even tropical fish. They are usually about $11 a pound, but it can go a long way.

I set out little footballs when we have people over for Sunday football games. And I am having a pirate themed birthday party for my brother next month where I will use chocolate gold coins as decoration and a favor.

See how cute gold chocolate coins look?

You can always use fun-sized candy pieces in lieu of novelty chocolate…

It doesn’t always have to be wrapped candy either (but don’t expect your guests to eat it!) For a ski themed party we once used marshmallows…

So consider this the official Party411.com recommendation for candy as party decoration. Have fun with it!
