Autumn nature party invitations

Make invitations using old magazines, cards, paper scraps, and card stock. Gather items from the nature such as fallen leaves, branches and twigs, and use craft glue to stick them onto the invitations. Alternatively, you can make pumpkin or leaf shaped invites using a stencil or a cookie cutter. Slip a cinnamon stick into each envelope to have your guests thinking about autumn food and aromas.

Fall party decorations  ideas

Seek inspiration from nature, and use colorful fall leaves, gourds, pumpkins, and Indian corn to create gorgeous centerpieces. Yellow and orange are the predominant autumn colors, so fragrant flower bouquets in these shades will make festive decorations. Use bales of hay for makeshift benches and cover them with seasonal colored cloths. Scent the party area with cinnamon candles, pumpkin spice, or scented pine cones to set the mood.

Food and drinks

What’s a party without good food? Make a vegetable platter with broccoli, brussels sprouts, carrots, and celery. Spread peanut butter on celery and sprinkle raisins to make fun ants on a log snack. For an outdoor entertainment, have everybody gather around fire and roast marshmallows. Of course, no autumn party is complete without pumpkin pies and miniature apples. Be sure there are plenty of warm drinks such as coffee, hot apple cider, and hot chocolate. For fall recipes on Stagetecture, try these!
