Thread: What will your 2012 party theme be?

Tweet

Between the great party, new props that exceeded expectations and a record-breaking number of trick-or-treaters, Halloween 2011 was magical . I've enjoyed the last few days with the house back to normal and I'm looking forward to Christmas, however, I can't help but start to imagine what Halloween 2012 will look like! I've already decided that my 2012 party theme will be Nightmare Before Christmas, and it will be a combined celebration with my 30th birthday party. I'm sure many of you have already thought about your next theme, if not chosen it already! So, what will your 2012 party theme be?

I don't know if we'll have a party next year or not. We haven't really thought about that. But I've definitely given the theme of my decor some thought. And I think I want to go with a more simple vintage look next year. I'd also like to play around with lighting outside for our cemetary. Instead of doing a lot of string lights...maybe play around with different colored spot lights. We'll see though....I'll change my mind a million times no doubt

Celebrating your 30th b-day with Halloween next year sounds like an awesome idea!!! And I love your theme! One of my favorite movies EVA!!!

Hi Halloween Scream!

My theme next year will be Zombies!

Its really hard for me to picture my decor though... I don't think I will be living where I currently do so I have no idea what the house that we will hopefully be renting will look like... its frustrating!

I love the vintage idea! And I can definitely say that our yard stepped up several levels when we ditched the string lights (not that there's anything wrong with them, my mom has about 20 sets she puts out and they look great) and went with colored spots. Here's a quick picture:


Keep us posted with what you decide!

Not sure how next year will go, I can tell you if we do it ( I know we will decide to closer to the time) it will be smaller. the Theme will be - It's the End of the World as We Know It - That will also fit with changing the whole halloween party around!

See...that's what I'm talking about!! That looks fantastic and definitely how I was picturing the lighting. Plus...it'll be much easier to pack up and put away. Pulling down a plethora of string lights can be a daunting task to say the least

Natascha: love your idea for your theme. Can't wait to see how it progresses!
