Hunting Party Time - Decorating Ideas



Since November is deer hunting season, I thought I'd share a few decorating ideas for a Hunting/ Duck Dynasty themed party. I did a similar post a couple months ago on hunting themed party food. If you missed it, click here to view. 

Hunting themed decorations were a little bit tricky for me. I used green and brown streamers, tablecloths and napkins, but I had to create a banner of my own.
  

Hunting Party Banner:

I started with green and brown construction paper and cut 8 inch squares.

I used decorative scissors for the edges. Next, I cut 6 inch squares out of camo scrapbook paper and glued them to the construction paper squares. 

Next, I made circles that fit nicely inside those 6 inch squares out of the construction paper. 



Finally, I used stencils to cut the letters out of the construction paper also. I punched holes in the two top corners and joined the different letters with orange ribbon. 




Camo Lettering:

When decorating for a hunting party, be sure to buy LOTS of camo duck tape. Here, I overlaid cork letters in duck tape to make camo letters to spell the graduates name.

 Camo Graduation Cap:

I found a disposable paper graduation cap and also overlaid it with camo duck tape. This made for a nice addition to our dessert display. 


Other Random Ideas:


  • Use a hunting lunch box to hold the greeting cards. 
  • Use duck dynasty tissue paper to accent the tables
  • Use fall leaf sequins and feathers like confetti to decorate the tables.
  • Chances are, if you're doing a hunting party for someone, they probably have some hunting decor or figurines that you can use to decorate as well.

Do you have any hunters in your family?
