PARTY INVITATIONS!

Creating a Whatsapp group and inviting people over for a house warming is one way of doing it but where is the fancy in that? I say — send over a pretty, chic invitation card to all your friends. There are a wide variety of printables that you can easily find online to suit your taste. But if you’re on a budget — just DIY! Some of these DIYs are incredibly simple to execute and look priceless + who doesn’t love a personal touch!

If you’re going for a theme party then make sure your invites reflect the same.

DIVISION OF SPACE

It is inevitable that a group of 15-20 people at a party would split into several small huddles. In that scenario, a smart move would be to divide the space in your house into small, beautifully lit and decorated seating areas. Make sure you use every part of your house for the same; be it your living room, the kitchen bar, your balcony or your terrace.

If you are a couch person then you could decorate your sofa with some stylish and colour coordinated cushions and pillows. Everyone loves that extra comfort of the pillows!

For a more casual setting, you could have a lot of throw cushions and mattresses.

AROMA & LIGHTS

Smell, they say, is the most powerful sense in humans. Easily forgotten yet the most important — The aroma. Make sure to lit up those wonderful scented candles you have been hoarding since forever for a special occasion. This is the occasion! Make that long-lasting, powerful first impression with a swooning scent of warmth spread across your home.

And if you’re on a budget and fragrant candles and oils aren’t happening anytime soon for you, there are always incense sticks! But this part, you absolutely cannot miss, my friend.

Also, don’t forget to mingle aroma with some good music to go along. Perhaps you can arrange a karaoke or a live band to perform at your place. Perhaps you may request a guitarist friend of yours to play, too. Anything works when it comes to good music. 

To impart a party like feel, lights are a big yes – yes! There are innumerable ways you can use lights to decorate your home — Randomly hanging them onto the wall, spiralling them over a hoola-hoop and hanging it as a centerpiece, globe lights in mason jars, or lacey or colourful round paper lamps that you may easily find in the local markets. They will add dollops of oomph to your place, make the party come alive and will add a feather to your home along with your cap.

Look out for Kriti Creations in malls across the city. They stock some great smelling (and cheap) aroma oils and diffusers.

THE FOOD DECOR

Most humans love to eat. Everything they do, at all times, revolves around eating food. Especially social gatherings like these. A corner dedicated to a remarkable arrangement for foods and drinks would certainly make a striking statement, don’t you think?

Whether it’s balloons, flowers or handmade colourful flags, you may take a pick of your absolute favourite!

Something out-of-the-box is always welcomed and much appreciated. The idea of the chalkboard and a street-cart food arrangement are seamlessly fabulous.

Also, dedicating a space for a photo booth is an amazing idea. Perhaps you can get a photographer friend (or hire one) to capture the wonderful memories of the day.

HOUSE WARMING GIFTS!

It shouldn’t come as a surprise that my flatmates and I have been fantasizing about all the housewarming gifts we’d be receiving (Yay!). These things can get really tricky even when it comes to deciding on a house warming return gift. Plants, framed words of wisdom or art, interesting kitchen items, lamps or a bottle of wine—all these make for some wonderful gifts.

If you’re wondering where you could go to get some pretty gifts or return gifts for these party, look no further than this.
