How to Make a Space-Age Party Theme

1. To get the neon effects, you will use Gatorade to freeze in ice cube

   trays. Some of their flavors have an especially neon look to them. You

   can add a bit of food coloring to make the colors even brighter but

   don't over due or you'll get a regular color not the neon shades of

   Gatorade.

2. Once frozen remove from tray and put into clear glasses. Pour any clear

   soda over ice cubes. Serve with glow-in-the-dark straws. It's a fun and

   festive look to add to any party and goes especially well with a space

   -age theme party like Star Wars. Add to this theme buy making Jell-O

   gigglers with bright blue and yellow flavor packets. Strawberry-Kiwi is

   another pinkish flavor that will match your punch theme. Foil wrap your

   other foods to look like space food.

3. For party favors, give out glow-in-the-dark necklaces and bracelets and

   balls. Many novelty items are available at your party supply store or

   online at http://www.windycitynovelties.com.

4. Finish off your neon design with brightly colored streamers for party

   decorations. The party store has glow-in-the-dark wall stickers of

   stars, planets and comets. Add these to your walls or party cloth

   backdrop cloth for a final touch. Add glow-in-the-dark balloons from

   your local party supply store or online at on of the many party supply

   sites like http://www.balloonthrills.com/effects.html
