Graduation Party Decorations
Setting the stage for a graduation party can be easy with some fundamental graduation party decorating tips. Choose your colors as a starting point and you'll create an inviting atmosphere. Most color themes are built around one or two main colors. If you select only one color for your decorating, try to add little touches of another color or a lighter or darker shade of the same color. If you select only one color, adding little splashes of white, black, gold or silver will not detract from your main color choice, and the effect will be considerably more dramatic.
No matter what color scheme you decide to go with, here are a few graduation party decorating basics that will recreate the Pomp and Circumstance right in your own home!
Outdoor Graduation Party Decorations
* Direct your friends and family in the right direction by placing our plastic-coated
Personalized Graduation Yard Sign at a nearby corner.
* Surround your front door with our fun
Graduation Door Decorations. No one will be left wondering where this graduation party is!
* Hang either our Congrats Grad Sign or a
Personalized Graduation Banner on your walls, doors, and windows to honor your special graduate.
Indoor Graduation Party Decorating Basics
* Never underestimate the power of graduation decorations with
Balloons, as they can transform any room into a cozy and festive space in minutes at a very low cost. Use a combination of latex and mylar balloons in various shapes and colors for a remarkable look!
* Our
Giant Latex Balloons are another fun way to emphasize the year the big accomplishment was achieved!
* Add some humor with our Grad Guys Standee. Not only is it a cute and festive graduation decoration, but it's great fun for photos!
* For a very personal touch that will remain a keepsake for your grad, send us a picture and we can create a wonderful
Life-Sized Standee.
* Suspend a
Balloon Bag from your ceiling and drop a whopping 100 balloons for a dramatic climax to your party!
* If you have not had the pleasure of decorating with
Gossamer in the past, you are in for a delightful surprise. It is a wonderful, lightweight "fabric" that creates fabulous decorating touches at a very reasonable price. It drapes, hangs and holds its shape beautifully. The effect is stunning and dreamlike! The gossamer comes in a multitude of colors, patterns, and widths to fit any party decoration need. If you are decorating a large area, or want to make any area look more intimate and festive, use gossamer to drape, swag, or cover just about anything. Ceilings, walls, doorframes, edges of table skirting, or tabletops all look terrific when accented with gossamer.
Create a tent-like appearance by gathering the gossamer at a central point in the ceiling and draping it to the walls. Many unsightly gymnasiums and banquet halls have been transformed into fantasy locations using our gossamer. Many graduation parties are held in a backyard tent at the home of the graduate. Our gossamer is perfect for hiding the supports, corner posts and steel frame that often show inside the tent.
Twist or braid two colors together for a stunning look.
Wrap gossamer graduation decorations around columns, stair rails, or balloon arches in your theme colors.
One of the hottest trends today is to cover banquet or reception chairs with chair bows...and it is quite costly! With gossamer (at a budget price), you can drape a piece of 19" gossamer across the top of each chair back, and then tie a gossamer streamer bow around the back of the chair. The bows can be cut to any length, and even look lovely with tails trailing on the floor.
Make bows out of gossamer streamers to hang anywhere and everywhere...chairs, doorways, stair rails, packages, or table-ends. The bows hold their shape beautifully at a fraction of the cost of wired ribbon.
* Create stunning ceilings that instantly transform your room by draping 2" or 4" wide Streamers in your theme colors from the ceiling's center to the room's sides. Streamers can also be used to accent tabletops and gifts, and to make bows. They look terrific hanging from doorframes, cascading vertically down walls or hanging horizontally across ceilings if a tent-like look is not your preference. Streamers can be twisted after they are anchored to a ceiling, wall or table for a more dimensional look. Two different colored streamers can be placed back-to-back, and twisted for a unique look.
* Visit our Sports and Spirit Items stores to view many items that can be added to your decor. Custom imprinted Balls, Cheer Phones, Pom Poms, Pennants, Stadium Cups, Imprinted Sport Towels...all add a fantastic look to any room at a reasonable price. They serve a dual purpose, as they can be given as party favors when the party is over! Don't hesitate to add real-life sports props to any setting!
