Ideas for a Candyland Prom

RE: Ideas for a Candyland Prom Post By Letty (Guest Post) (12/01/2008) I am having a candyland themed party for my daughter fifth birthday and am decorating each table with such areas that on would land on in the game like at lord licorice, gingerbread, ect.. and between the tables I am putting colored squares as if they are playing the game and the cake and present table will be the end of the game which will be the area of king candy. also am renting cotton candy machine, face painting and different size clear jars of loose candy such as gum drops licorice, jelly beans, gum ball machine. This is a kids party but, if you keep it exciting and colorful I think it will turn out great. Report Spam or Abuse RE: Ideas for a Candyland Prom Post By Susan R. (Guest Post) (10/28/2008) Just thought I would share these ideas....we are doing the candyland theme for my daughters birthday and we are using solid color round paper lanterns from oriental trading.com and wrapping them in clear celophane and hanging them for decorations. Also you might want to use some of those candycane yard decorations that are at Walmart for a $1.00 each. If you watch after the holidays you could get them for practially nothing. Keep this in mind for other decorations as well after Christmas sales are the best. Hope these help. I haven't done this yet but my friend told me to use two liter bottles and cut 5 - 6 inches from the bottom off, turn upside down and paint them in different colors and dust with sugar to make gumdrop props. Let me know if this helps.

People will follow the trail to the room where the dance will be held.

They made a big garland that looked like over-sized wrapped hard candies strung together. They used clear plastic salad containers (the ones with matching lids) and wrapped them in colored celophane (the kind used to wrap big gift baskets). The celophane was twisted on each end to look like a wrapped candy. Then all the "candies" were wired together. I think they also made starlight mints using white styrofoam plates, red construction paper "swirls" and clear celophane. The thing that made these decorations really cute was their over-sized, whimsical quality. Good luck with your prom!

Well, the student council is in charge of coming up with a theme for our annual "Sports Dance". A Sports Dance is when the coaches from all of the schools sports shaporone the dance. It's like a mini Prom so we get all dressed up for it. Well, this year, the theme is "CandyLand". So we have to plan everything for it in 2 months. So far we are trying to figure out decorations. We are putting candycanes, gumdrops, lolipops, and other candy decorations all over our gym, plus we are getting a chocolate fountain. So when the dance is over I'll tell you how it went, wether it was a success or not. You also might want to rethink the name. Some of the Seniors didn't like the name "CandyLand," so we voted on a different name. One of the ideas was "Sealed with a Kiss". Try it out and see what everyone thinks.

We are incorporating bubble gum machines as well. I think for a prom, you could use the bubble gum machines on the tables, with loolipops and stuff. Use the candyland game and the cards for other ideas. I think it would be really cute. Make sure all the colors coordinate! Have fun and good luck, If you get ideas, let me know so I can use them at the baby shower. :) Report Spam or Abuse RE: Ideas for a Candyland Prom Post By (Guest Post) (06/02/2005) colorful construction paper and swirl glue in the center and add glitter...it'll be lollipops and line the walls with them.... craft pole painted white lined with red piping=candy cane Report Spam or Abuse
