Rainbows.
 

Oh hai!

I am turning the grand old age of 26 in a months time and instead of being a grown up I have decided the only way to celebrate is to have an 'adventure time' themed birthday party. As we (my friend and I) cant find many decorations for such a specific theme we are heavily subsidising it with rainbow theme!

What I am stuck on mostly is rainbow food/beverages, the only thing we have come up with is smarties and skittles vodka and a rainbow birthday cake. Not entirely sure that will sustain everyone. Does anyone have any ideas?The more imaginative the better!

Also any kind of decoration ideas would be wicked. We have already made rainbows out of paper plates (will attach a photo when my phone stops being stupid) and were making rainbow pom poms, but any other ideas would be awesome.


Thanks!

P.S. Were students, so nothing too expensive ;] x

You could do jelly in various colours?

*puts thinking hat on*

Yes!Now the question is.....layer the jelly or seperate jellies?!x

I think that if you layer the jelly it will be more difficult or will run into the other colours..... therfore I vote for separate! This is also good for fussy eaters who may not like all the flavours.

Rainbow fruit skewers?

You could make paper chains?

Could put party glitter or confetti on the table counters etc, here anyways is often bunch if colors in the same pack. Or can make your own out of colored paper. Also could make diff colored party hats with colored paper and decorate everyones head :p Wow thats a lot of rainbow foods on the link!

ideas that i have:

- but different colour food colourings in ice cube trays so that any clear drink with ice can become rainbow coloured.

- get some hummus and other bull **** and then chop sticks of food and arrange rainbowly.. so like.. cherry tomatoes, carrot, yellow pepper, cucumber, purple sprouting broccoli. etc etc.

- bowls of smarties/m&ms

- these (you could use different colours in one instead of all one colour)

- get a load of balloons.

- tricolour pasta.

- paper chains .. you know the ones you make with strips of papper into circles and linked.

- fill a jar with different colour crayons for decoration. (and leave out paper so that you can get drunk pictures from friends.

Oooo, rainbows. Adventure Time scares me so rainbows seems more awesome.

I like Charlie's list, especially the last idea. Do that and put up pictures of the drawings. :)

I really like the crayons/paper idea charlie.

The tissue paper flowers are what were making....need moar tissue paper.

Good ideas!x

I'm going to put some thought into this and if I get anything I shall be back...

In other news, skittles vodka <3

Jello of all colors!

I have nothing to add but I very much enjoy all the suggestions and now I want a rainbow party too!

Hope you have a good party Liv :)

Get different colour drinks like all the colours of Mickey Finn/Sourz etc. :)

Expensive nic :( I invited you by the way Y U NO REPLY?!x

You NEED to have candy. From the Candy Kingdom, obviously. So some peppermints, cinnamon buns, etc. If it was me I'd make a small snail (make it out of paper) and put it on a shelf. I'd know it was there but hardly anyone else would notice it.

I could totally make rainbow cinnamon buns! OH MY GLOB! There will be much candy, were trying to recreate the candy kingdom sort of. Haha yes totally need the snail.x

If you get loads of balloons I wont come anywhere near you :P

Me toooo!

It's like, gay themed! :tongue2:

Rainbows <3

GLITTER!

Glitter makes everything better and it's just fabulous.

Oh yeah, half of RYL are scared of balloons! Bad times :( Is it the potential for popping that unnerves you too?

IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY SOON. Just saying. I hope Liv doesn't mind me suggesting you steal her idea :-/

There will be some balloons tiff, but not many.xx

Wow what a wonderful idea for a party! I hope you take lots of photographs Liv so we can see the colourful event. Are you going to get face paints? You could paint rainbows on everybody's faces!

sooo many ideas!

^I started making a pintrest board the other day, thank you for the links....I love all their ideas but some are out of my price/crafty range heh :)

I love the idea of face paints emma, I think if I put some out people might us them and you can get really cheap facepaints!

I will take pictures! :D x

There a pound shop near me that does rainbow door hangy things. Can't think how to describe them but like loads of strips of coloured plastic on a string. Anyway they look good.

Also rainbow food can be savoury too as the colouring won't taste anything. So make rainbow quiche or pie or something.

You could have rainbow coloured vodka slushies/jelly shots aswell.

Bacon Pancakes.
