Swimming Pool Chemicals
Pool parties are a glam sham way of celebrating anything. Be it a birthday, wedding rehearsal, baby shower or the Oscars, pool parties are the way to go! Nonetheless, depending on the nature of the party there are certain types of pool party decorations, that you can have. Check out the article below for some really cool ideas for decoration of pool parties!
Remember the episode of Sex and The City where Samantha (played by Kim Cattrall) throws a gorgeous pool party at the Hampton’s? It was just amazing. One of my friends recently decided to throw a pool party herself (inspired by Samantha, of course), once her brand new swimming pool was ready to use. Hence, we started brainstorming about the decoration aspect. Here are our findings.
Pool Party Decorations Type 1 – Kids Pool Party Decorations
This one is first in the list, as the pool party that we were planning was for her (my friend’s) 5 year old. Pool parties for kids can be a messy affair. At such parties the decoration has to be of a simple and protective nature. For example, knowing that seldom do kids stay out of the pool, keep a lot of colorful floaters in the pool. You could keep two floaters per child. The lounge chairs on the pool deck can also be colorful. Select bright colors like blue, red, green, yellow and purple. They add a cheerful and childlike ambience to the party. You can have a lot of balloons around. You can also have cute balloon animals all around, using some balloon twisting instructions.
Pool Party Decorations Type 2 – Game Time Decorations
Pool Volley Ball is a popular game. So why not add it to the party. You can add a net, mid way in your pool and throw a few balls in there. Let the people enjoy. You can have other games like, table tennis and ice hockey on the deck as well. You could have colorful posters around the pool. This kind of a decoration will be appropriate for young adults and adults. Children attending such a party can have fun splashing water around in the kiddy pool!
Pool Party Decorations Type 3 – Hampton Style Decorations
Since I have already mentioned Samantha’s Party in the beginning of the article, it would be cruel to ignore it here. You could have a Hampton style pool party with the white chic deck and lounge chairs. You could have floral decoration and a champagne fountain. At such a pool party, I doubt anyone would be entering the pool, but just in case someone does, you could have white linen towels set on each lounge chair, easy access, right? Such a party is a very upscale affair, so, your hired help also add to the general décor of the party, make sure that they are dressed appropriately, as well.
Pool Party Decorations Type 4 – Hawaiian Style Decorations
This is my personal favorite type. You can keep a Hawaiian dress code and serve the drinks in coconut shells. Make a hay – shed type roof for the pool and keep a lot of palms around it. Linens can have leafy or floral prints. The lounge chairs can be brown or green in color. Most importantly, you need to have Hawaiian music playing in the background. ‘You could also have Hawaiian Dancers and garlands for the guests. Sounds good to you?
Most important of all, no matter what the occasion or party idea, the host needs to, at all points of time, be very conscious of the safety of the guests. Often in a party mood people do forget the importance of safety, but being the host, you need to be absolutely certain that you have a trained lifeguard around. He doesn’t really need to be guarding the pool at all times, nonetheless, in case of an emergency, he needs to be close by.
So this is where I sign off! Have a blast, I mean, ‘splash’ at your super cool pool party!!
