Mardi Gras Bead
Bash |
 |

Why reinvent the wheel
with your Mardi Gras bash? Stick with the one thing we all
think of when we think Mardi Gras - BEADS! Set up your party
like you're on Bourbon Street and your party will
be a blast and one your guests won't stop talking about!

Cooking Directions

1. Send Your Mardi Gras Invitation
-
Personalize Your Party!

with a graphic of people throwing beads from a balcony on Bourbon Street.

Go
all out and send your invitation in a padded envelope or box filled with
Beads!

5.
Entertain Your Guests
It's up to you how you determine who gets the best
beads at your party. Here are some more PG ideas:
-
A Mardi Gras trivia
contest. (The
History of Mardi Gras should
help with questions)
-
A bead scavenger
hunt (this works well for kids), with beads hidden around the house.
-
A Mardi Gras
costume contest (tell your guests to dress up on the invitation!) is great
fun.
-
Contest winners should be crowned King and
Queen of Mardi Gras with
Blinking Crown Beads
and
Blinking Mask Beads.

6. Hand Out Favors to Say "Thanks for coming!"
-
Pass out fun Mardi Gras themed favors to all of your guests. You hand out favors
at the end of the party, but these favors are so fun that I would pass them
out at the start for all to enjoy! They may not be beads, but they
scream Mardi Gras!
