Peacock Party Ideas

 

 

 

A peacock birthday party theme will make your kids birthday party extra special.  Use these fun ideas sent in by our readers to help plan your peacock party. 

 

 

 

Peacock Party Invitation Ideas
Buy vibrant note cards in bright blue, aqua, green and/or purple and attach a real (or paper) peacock feather to the outside of the invitation. 

Send out note cards with a bright paisley pattern on the front.  Or make your own by pasting paisley scrapbook paper to the front of blank note cards.  Write party information on the inside. 

 

 

 

Peacock Party Decoration Ideas
Decorate the peacock party with bright blue, green, aqua and/or purple.  Find the exact colors you want to use and then you can mix and match patterns as long as they are in those colors.  For a dramatic look use vivid solid color tablecloths (aqua or bright blue) and use solid color plates (green).  Fold solid color purple napkins in a fan pattern and place them behind the plate to look like a peacock tail.   You could also use a bright paisley print to mimic the peacock feathers. 

Set out snacks and food in brightly colored bowls in bright blue, aqua, green and purple.  Peacock feathers can make a beautiful centerpiece simply by placing them in a tall vase.  Fill in around the peacock feathers with large feathers in bright colors. 

Drape brightly colored tulle or crepe paper from the ceiling outward towards the walls of the party room and then let it drape down the walls.  Bright colored helium balloons tied on the back of each chair at a party table or in bunches is a great (and inexpensive) way to add lots of bold color to the Peacock party.

Peacock Party Games

 

Peacock Egg Hunt
Before the Peacock party buy lots of plastic eggs in purple, green and blue - peacock eggs!  Fill them with candy, small prizes or write numbers on some of them and let the party guests exchange them for bigger prizes that correspond with the number on the egg.  Hide the peacock eggs all over the birthday area.  Buy white paper sacks that the guests can decorate during the party and then use to hold the eggs they collect during the peacock egg hunt.

Peacock Party Foods
In glass pitchers or dispensers add food coloring to sprite and/or water (or use Kool-aid) to make drinks that match your party color scheme.  You can also freeze blue or green colored Kool-aid in ice cube trays and add them to drinks.

Use teardrop cookie cutters and cut out shapes in sandwiches, brownies, cookies, rice krispies or fruit and arrange them on a platter in the shape of a peacock tail.

Decorate cupcakes with different colored frosting in bright blue, purple and green and arrange on a platter to look just like a peacock tail.

Sprinkled marshmallows are a fun way to add color to a party food table.  Place a large marshmallow on a skewer and dip a little bit of water - then roll the marshmallow in a dish of colored sprinkles.  Then place the skewers in a tall vase and place on the party food table.
