Personalized tiki bar sign with beach bar and tiki totem design

 

From cocktails to costumes, decor to desserts - say Aloha to these Hawaiian party ideas!

 

If you love a party with a tropical twist, take inspiration from Hawaii. Host a luau, complete with tropical decor, fruity cocktails, and hula hooping contests. Read on to discover the must-haves for your luau party, then grab your grass skirt and invite your ohana!

 

  1. Grill Some Tasty Kebabs

Make Hawaiian-inspired skewers using meat, fresh vegetables, and fruit such as pineapple. Charred to perfection on the grill, kebabs are easy to eat and absolutely mouthwatering! For dessert, grilled bananas topped with whipped cream, chocolate chips, and coconut sprinkles will go down a treat.

 

  1. Get Creative with Your Cocktails

No luau is complete without fruity, boozy cocktails - piña coladas, mai tais, and blue Hawaiians are a must! Serve them in fancy glasses with little paper umbrellas or in coconut shells for a taste of the exotic.

Flower garlands, monstera leaves, tiki torches, and paper lanterns will all bring Hawaiian vibes to your space. For a fabulous finishing touch, display a personalized tiki bar sign or tropical welcome sign to direct guests to the party!

 

  1. Dress for the Occasion

Encourage your guests to wear their most colorful outfits and give everyone a lei when they arrive. Guys should wear Hawaiian shirts (the louder the better!), board shorts, and flip flops. Ladies should opt for grass skirts, coconut bras (if they’re feeling brave!), and a flower in their hair. Why not give out prizes for the best-dressed guests?

 

  1. Let the Games Begin!

Challenge your guests to some Hawaiian themed party games, such as hula hooping contests, tug-of-war, blow darts, and limbo contests. And don’t forget to play island-style background music; reggae, ukulele music, and anything by the Beach Boys is ideal!

Whimsigothic: How to Achieve This Bewitching New Interiors Trend

Those who reach touch the stars quote on starry night sky background

 

Channel your inner witch with this spooky-kooky interiors trend! Brimming with luxe textures and celestial motifs, it’s the most magical way to style your home.

Whimsigothic is the spellbinding new interiors trend creating a buzz on TikTok. The look is inspired by a cauldron of aesthetics: A dash of 90s goth, a touch of quirky, and a sprinkling of spooky! If Stevie Nicks is your idol and you adore Tim Burton movies, you’ll fall under the spell of Whimsigothic. Here’s how to achieve the look.

 

Layer Up Textures

Texture is a key part of the Whimsigothic trend - particularly velvet. Pile velvet pillows on your couch, choosing designs that feature golden embroidery or tassels. Add an embroidered throw, embellish cabinets with crystal doorknobs, and place shimmering ceramics on bookcases for an interesting mix of textures.

 

Add Rich Colors

The Whimsigothic color palette is all about jewel tones such as teal, sapphire, and amethyst. Gold accents on textiles and accessories lift the moody hues and add a luxurious finish. Pop a teal velvet cushion on your favorite armchair and group gold-colored lanterns on your fireplace for a bewitchingly cozy reading nook.

 

Pick Magical Motifs

Stars, moons, and suns are characteristic of the Whimsigothic trend. Decorate with hanging stars, stash jewelry on a moon-shaped trinket dish, and snuggle under a blanket featuring a vintage sun motif. Finish with a few celestial wall signs, such as this starry sky design or this dreamy moon quote sign.

 

Accessorize – A Lot!

With Whimsigothic, more is definitely more! Fill your space with plush velvet and sheer fabrics; crystals and gilded statues; hanging plants and trailing foliage; lanterns and candles (lots of candles!). Don’t forget the power of fragrance – incense will instantly conjure the Whimsigothic vibe and magically transform the mood of your home.

Spring Cleaning Time! 3 Easy Ways to Spruce Up Your Home

Spring cleaning needn’t be a chore!
Achieve a fresh, clean home with our clever hacks.
 

As the weather gets warmer, it’s time to think about your annual spring clean. Cleaning your house from top to bottom may seem like a challenge, but it’s actually pretty easy – and satisfying! Just follow our top tips for sprucing up your home in a flash.

 

  1. Preparation is the Key to Success!

Gather all your spring cleaning supplies in advance, to save yourself time and frustration on the day. For a basic cleaning kit, you’ll need microfiber cloths, paper towels, an all-purpose cleaning spray, dusters, a vacuum, a mop, rubber gloves, and trash bags. Store your products in a caddy that you can easily carry from room to room.

 

Before you even lift a cloth, you should tidy up and declutter. This will give you a clean slate, helping you see where the dirt is lurking. Put away all the flotsam that’s lying around and box up for donation anything you no longer want/need.

 

  1. Clean Top to Bottom

When cleaning, you should start with the top floor of your house and work down. Likewise, you should clean light fixtures and ceiling fans before tables, floors, and baseboards. You don’t want dirt from above spoiling your freshly-cleaned surfaces!

 

When it comes to your kitchen and bathroom, there’s an easy way to save valuable scrubbing time. Leave cleaning products to soak into your sink, toilet, and tub; they’ll do the hard work while you tackle other rooms.

 

Dust furniture, shelves, lamps, electronics, and decor (including your lovely Fun Sign Factory wall signs!). Then, wipe down doors, mirrors, cabinets, and counters, and wash your windows. Finally, vacuum and mop your floors to make them sparkle!

 

  1. Spruce Up Your Space with Some New Decor

When your house is spick and span, it’s the perfect time to add new decor. We have a great collection of funny household quote signs, that will (hopefully!) encourage the family to keep things clean!
