More on the topic of themes

One of the things that I take into consideration when choosing any theme, is what are my decorating choices. I'll usually decide on 2or 3 themes that i would like, let's say vegas, mardi gras, and hollywood, I then start researching party supply stores to see what they have to offer. Seeing how many different options I have for supplies ie: centerpieces, wall decorations, favors, odd and end pieces to pull it all together, helps me make choosing much easier.

Deciding on a Theme

This is the fun part but also a little stressful. Of course we want to pick something that we would enjoy, but more importantly will your guests. First you need to look at your guest list, what is the age range of adults, will there be kids there. This should help narrow down your list somewhat, especially for you wild ones out there. If you are having a mix of kids and adults make sure it's something that can cater to both like a luau.
Speaking of Luau's , which would be great in the summer time, the time of year your event is can also help you decide what type of theme works best.

Simply Wrapd


OK, I'm still getting this whole blog thing going but I thought I would give you guys some background as to why I started my business Simply Wrapd.
Yes like most moms I was looking for a work at home job, and was doing a lot of research online on different options, but I was always interested in party planning, party favors,etc. I eventually happened across this really great site called Wrapcandy, they offer software to design candy wrappers, boxes, bags, all sorts of cool stuff, so i gave it a shot and loved it.
Now being that I have kids, I know what it was like to have your child request a certain themed party, and not being able to find any party favors to go with it, or even have something that was just a little bit more unique than the rest. But now that i started Simply Wrapd I can design anything that I want, and I wanted to share that with everyone else out there who knows what that frustration is all about.To give you an idea of what some of the stuff looks like here is a picture.
