Tennis
Theme Party Ideas !!!
Compared to
other sports, there are not many tennis theme party supplies available.
Because of limited goods, you have to be creative when throwing your
tennis party or awards banquet. Here are a few ideas!
Greeting Cards, Invitations
& Thank You Notes
With clip art and computers you are manned with
all the tools you need to make great invitations. If you want to
jazz up your invitation add the
Tennis Angle Pin
to the cover. While giving an added 3-d look, the angle pin is a
nice keepsake.
Not so good with a computer? Just peel and stick these
3-D Fabric Tennis Stickers
to colored paper. It will make an award winning invitation or than. Of course we have a great
variety of
Tennis Theme Blank Note Cards
that you can personalize for your party.
Tennis Stationery makes great paper to write your announcements or
party invitations. There is even matching tennis envelopes.
Does it get any easier?
Tennis Table Cloth
A tennis court table cloth is a
fun way to decorate for your tennis party. Buy a green vinyl table cloth
and some 2" white sport tape. Stick the white
tape on the green table cover to look like a tennis court
It's that simple, but very effective. You could also use our roll of
Tennis Ball Stickers to put around the edges
and have a tennis ball border.
 If
you use the Tennis Ball Stickers for the table cover, you will
have extra stickers. Place
the extra tennis ball sticker on green cups. Write
your guest names on the tennis ball stickers before you attach them
and your guests will always find their cup!
Having a Wimbledon party? Go to your local hardware store and buy
some artificial lawn edge. Cut the artificial lawn to make a table
runner in the center of the table. Decorate the table with
tennis theme bowls,
Plates and Napkins. The "green lawn" adds a fun
but realistic effect to you table. Netting is also a fun item to drape
on your tables or along the side. If you don't feel like going to
your hardware store, you can use our
Vinyl or Plastic Grass Table Cover.
Ping pong tables are a fast way to create a tennis look. They
already have a green background with a net. You can recreate the
tennis court by adding white tape for the court lines.
Centerpiece:
Tennis balls make
a great addition to any centerpiece. Use a hand held corkscrew
and screw a hole in the ball. Go to your dollar store and get
plastic chop sticks or strong barbecue skewers. Put the tennis
ball on the stick and place them in a flower arrangement. It will
make a fun tennis centerpiece. Use
Glass Racquet Swizzle Sticks for smaller arrangements.
Do you have old tennis trophies in
your attic? Dust them off and place them in the center of a flower
arrangement. Usually, you can unscrew the top, tennis part, of the
trophy off the base. It's easy and inexpensive!
Try floating tennis
balls in a pretty glass container with floating candles using colored
water.
Party Favors
Miniature
Trophies
make great party favors. Put the trophies next to the place
settings at your luncheon or awards banquet. For an added effect,
put a
Tennis
Ball Antenna Topper or
Tennis Ball Lip Balm on top of the trophy. Guest can have a great
favor to take home.
Use
Tennis Candy Molds to make chocolates favors. Just melt a
bag of Wilton colored chocolates in the microware and pour them into the
molds. Want to be more creative? The molds can also be used to make
individual soap.
Fun Party Ideas
To make
place holders, cut tennis
balls in half and cut slit in the top. Put weighted paper with
names or pictures in the slit and place
on tables.
If you have access to any old wooden racquets they make great
decorations for any tennis party.
Use can also our
Tennis Player Cake Topper Figurines to decorate your table or centerpiece.
Balloons
Balloons add color
and atmosphere to any tennis affair.
Latex Balloons are your
standard blow up balloons. They can usually be filled with air or helium.
The helium often loose their float after a day.
Mylar Balloons
are made for helium and hold their loft for several days.
To fill helium in balloons, bring
them to most drug stores, grocery stores, or party
stores that have a helium tank. They will fill them and place a
ribbon around them for you to carry the balloons. The cost is
very reasonable but varies from store to store. Give yourself
plenty of time as it takes several minutes to blow up each balloon.
When making a bouquet of balloons, use an odd number and space them out so they're
slightly different heights. Tie ribbon on the end of several balloons
and curl the ribbon using scissors or a knife.
Weigh down balloon bouquets with soda cans or canned food wrapped in
Tennis Theme Wrapping Paper. You can also allow balloons to just float up to
the ceiling with long ribbons.
We hope this advice helps make your tennis event a great success. A
little creativity goes a long way and you don't have to spend a fortune.
Good Luck!
