I need ideas for a centerpeice for a beach themed pool party?!
Answers:
You can get a pineapple and cut off the top, then, take out the insides, like coring it!. Keep the insides for fruit salad or to snack on, you can even serve some of it at the party!.
Anyway, once you have the insides of the pineapple taken out, KEEP the top, then get a piece of floral foam and wet it down and put it down inside of the pineapple!. Then put some flowers in the pineapple and into the foam!. You can even do JUST white carnations and then put a straw in down in it and then put the top back on halfway, if you have the white flowers only with the straw, it will look like a pina coloda! They're all white and made with coconut and pineapple! You can put the straw in and then just tilt the top of the pineapple back onto the pineapple itself!. Use toothpicks in the top and the into the top edges of the pineapple to hold the top into place!. I'm hope I'm not confusing you!. To hold the top in place at a tilt, on the bottom of the top part of the pineapple, put some toothpicks and then when you put it back onto the pineapple, insert those toothpicks that are in the top, into the pineapple as you're putting it back on!.
You can do that, which are just pineapple vases!. I hope I didn't confuse you with them, just take out the insides, put floral foam in and put flowers in!. If you use only white, and add a straw and even a little umbrella, it will look like a pina coloda!
OR
You can get some tall glasses and fill them with flowers, carnations, and bunch them up, but get them in all one color to make them look like drinks!. Get a margarita glass and put all green carnations in that one!. Make sure to cut all the flowers down to size!.
Get a beer mug and put water in the bottom, but then add yellow food coloring and then add white carnations to the glass to be the foam of the glass!.
Then you can get a cocktail glass and do a strawberry daiquiri, and do all dark pink carnations and then do another one with all white for a pina coloda!. You can add little umbrellas to these too!
If you don't want to do centerpieces that look like drinks, you can do:
Get a styromfoam ball in a medium size, you can get them in the sewing section of any crafts store!. If you can find floral foam in a round shape, use that instead that's even better and you definitely want that over the styrofoam! Then, get some flowers in white, red, blue, and yellow!. Make rows of these flowers around the ball, you're making it look like a beach ball, but with flowers! You can then find something to stand it on so it's not just laying on the table!. You can stand it on a glass, etc!.
OR
Get a vase, and make some BLUE jello and put in IN the vase!. Put the vase IN the refigerator and let it set up!. AT ONE hour, take some jelly fish, you know those candy fish, and put them down into the vase, don't worry about the holes you make putting them in, it will close up as it sets!. When you put the fish in, make sure you do NOT put them all the way down, you want them just halfway through!. Then, when it hardens, they'll look like they're swimming around the vase!
You can do this with ANY color of jello, just use less water and you can put anything down in the jello, even flowers! You can get yellow and put flowers in there!. You can put some sea shells down in them etc!.
You can also get a clear vase, put some sand and seashells at the bottom and then a white pillar candle in the vase!. It will look really pretty and very beachy!. The white pillar candle will be sitting on the sand and the shells!.
I hope some of these ideas help and that you have a great party!Www@FoodAQ@Com
