DIY The Party
Create a pirate party in #DIYTheParty with Mistress Nora of Madness.
Pirates had been in story books from my childhood but when Pirates of the Caribbean series came out the Boom from the cannons could be heard around the world. Pirates were everywhere. Halloween and Renaissance fairs were full of them but Now you can go to Bars or just walk downtown and see people enjoying this look. I think a Party based on Pirates should be on every "Speak like a Pirate Day" September 19th. What could be more fun than having Drinks with the skulls of your enemies laying around.
Celebrate Easter in #DIYTheParty with Daniela from CurlyMade.
Easter in my family usually translates into gathering the family for a great meal, but for the kids, it's even more than that, it's bunny themed everything, chocolate egg treats and having fun playing around.

Create a fun and festive house-warming party in #DIYTheParty with Sheila.
I decided to choose a theme of a house-warming party because I'm moving house in the next few weeks. I chose the wine crate stool to make extra seating for my guests; the fabric nesting buckets are to put my plants and my balls of yarn into (I'm a bit of a yarn addict and these buckets look nicer than plastic carrier bags!!!); I'd like to try the abstract wood rug beside my new back door; the haggis oatcakes were a no-brainer because I live in Scotland and love haggis and oatcakes!; the teriyaki chicken is because you can get sick of only eating haggis!; and the nachos and beans are for the same reason - they all look like great snacks to give to guests; the wine and the punch need no explanation and the eco coasters are to stand the wine glasses on to protect my furniture. With bunting hung to decorate the place - all in all it adds up to a great party.
Recreate an Alice In Wonderland inspired tea party in #DIYThePart with MagicalGirlMaya.
I love all things Alice in Wonderland, and as this will be the theme of my niece’s 7th birthday this week, I was incredibly inspired to pick out a bunch of really great projects for it. There’s something about the whimsy of throwing a tea party that really just speaks to me. Obviously, my tea party includes cocktails and it’s suitable for seven year olds. If you don’t have to worry about that, then enjoy your booze and your tiny cakes!
Create a vegan friendly Easter party in #DIYTheParty with VeganSprinkles.
As a vegan, Easter can be a tricky holiday to celebrate. It is traditionally associated with eggs, ham, and milk chocolate which doesn't resonate well with people eating plant-based diets. That is no reason to miss out. With a little planning, and these fabulous tutorials, vegans can party along just like everyone else!
