With October 31 creeping up on us quickly, it's never too early to plan your eco-chic Halloween happenings. Whether your party is just for mummies and other adults or you are also including little ghouls and boys, making a few simple changes can turn your gathering from a regular party to an eco-chic screaming success! Let our Green Event Guru show you the ins and outs of planning a spooky and sustainable soiree.
Hello my eco-party people. We’re quickly approaching those three months filled with holiday party after party. The first major holiday milestone is Halloween (October 31st) You have school parties for the kids, office parties for you, neighborhood get-togethers and pre-candy gathering merry making to buy supplies for.
If you are serving food, make sure to keep it locally and/or sustainably grown. For little monster parties, turn oranges into little pumpkins for a healthy delicious treat and dip frozen bananas into white yogurt coating & garnish with chocolate chips for eyes. For adult parties, consider something a bit more gruesome looking but still yummy like locally raised smoked ribs or a roasted whole pig.
To complete your sustainable table, check out EcoPartyTime’s black, white, green, & orange party supplies which include tablecloths, napkins, cups, utensils and straws, & rustic and bagasse plates.
I always like to check out local breweries to see what devilishly delicious brews they have come up with for October. Favorite fall flavors always include cinnamon, pumpkin, & coffee. Supporting a local microbrewery keeps your party dollars in the community which strengthens the community as a whole.
When it comes to favors for party guest or even the little ghouls and goblins which will be coming to the door, don’t forget to visit EcoPartyTime for sustainable bags & treats. Their black, orange and green middy bag selection is perfect for homemade cookies or spiced nuts. Tie the goodies tight with green, orange or black Divine Twine.
For your trick or treaters, check out the felt goody bags and eco-chic kiddy costume options offered. There’s green sustainable costumes for your pirate, dinosaur, fairy, and princess. Get all natural makeup for your Elsa’s, rock stars, and fairies from Kleenaturals.
