All About Me/ My favorites - This is all about you and the things you love, and your favorite things from food, ot music, etc.

The Year you were born - based around all that was popular the year you were born.

Astrological - This is based on your Astrological sign and the colors associated with that sign.

Remember when - Pick an era! 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s. etc.

We're Kids again! - This party is just like the parties you had when you were a kid with pin the tail on the donkey, musical chairs, etc.

Monochromatic - Pick a color and decorate in the tones and shades of that color, from light to dark and all the tones in between. So if you choose blue, you would start with light blue, and work your way to dark blue.

Birthstone - This theme revolves around the color of your birthstone! From decorations to the tablecloths, napkins, etc. It would be all about your birthstone color!

If you're interested in any of theset themes and want me to elaborate on how to decorate, etc, just give me a yell! I hope some of these ideas help!

I hope whatever theme you come up with and choose, you have a great party and a very Happy Birthday!!

Answer 4

Hollywood theme: Everyone dress up for a red carpet event. Rent a small hall or room. Have everyone wear white/black and you steal the show in red. Make it a dance. Buy a couple celebrity stand ups for pictures with your guests. Buy hollywood decorations at shindgiz, partycheap, hollywood megastore, etc. Have a DJ.



Movie party at home. Have a movie themed party. They sell decorations for this at oriental trading. com and you can also find some movie stuff on the hollywood sites I mentioned above. Watch a cool movie, have popcorn and all kids of candy and junk food. Make or buy pizza and have sundaes. Have a sleep over with the girls if you want. Have a dance if your have room.

Luau, beach Hawaii: Orientaltrading has the coolest decorations and favors for this theme and the cutest tropical invitation in the bottle. Give your guests leis as they come in. Play Limbo, Hula hoop, and have a few grass skirts and everyone (including the guys) have to give hulaing a try. Again if you have room to do this at home or you can rent a small room.  Tropical pinata.  Twister.  Hawaii games:  http://www.alohafriendsluau.com/games.ht...

Candy theme: Pink tablecloths, pink and white balloons. Make candy bouquets for the tables with short wide mouth vase from the dollar store. Fill 1/3 with peppermint disks. Buy colorful lollipops and put in the vase. Make another one t he same but use candy sticks instead like cherry, lime, etc. You can attach bows to each one with a favor card that says your initial, 16 or thanks for coming to my sweet 16 and then after the party give them out as favors. Get personalized M and Ms to put in small favor bags. Get personalized hershey bar wrappers and little personalized stickers that go on the bottom of hershey's kisses or even hard candy. Buy plate size styrofoam 3 inch thick rounds and wrap in clear cellophane for a big hard candy decorations. you could put a wood dowel in one to make it a sucker. Play twister. For favors those candy necklaces, bracelets ands ring pops and candy lipsticks.  They sell inflatable lollipops at Windy City Novelities. Buy a sweet 16 plastic sucker mold.  We got 1 for 2.50 on Ebay.  We bought 3 bags of colored chocolate at the craft store and 1.50 each and made 27 lolliopops out of that.  A bag of 100 lolly bags and ties is 1.99.  It was so easy to make. Shindigz sells personalized clear candy jars.  Also have cotton candy.  

Neon theme. Bright colors, neon lights and glow in the dark items.  They sell lights that go in balloons and all kinds of neon and glow in the dark items at windy city novelitis, oriental trading and U.S. Toy Company.  Shop.glogames.com.  Glowsource.com

For any theme you choose check out scene setters: www.fun4parties.com.

These are huge plastic murals ke your theme looks so real. We have used these and love them and so cheap. You buy backgrounds and can add things to them.

Party decorations:

shindigz, oriental trading, U.S. Toy Company, partycheap, and many, many more.

Have a Hills party like the MTV show. Decorate with Hollywood backgrounds from fun4parties.com.  Tell the girls on the invite to wear Hills type dresses and guys preppy style:  give the girls rockstar sunglasses like they wear on the hills from windycity novelities.  Have a fashion show.  Get stores to donate a few items, have your friends model.  

The decorations match your theme and you can have the favors match your theme if you want. For example, if you have a rock and roll theme, you might consider temporary tattoos, bandanas, mardi gras beads, personalized guitar picks.  For a candy theme you could give candy bracelets, necklaces, candy lipstick, sweet 16 lollipops etc.  

So, once you decide on a theme, repost and ask for suggestions on decorations and favors and we can research that and give you specifics.
