How to Decorate for a Beatles Party

Sixties-style decorations work well for a Beatles theme party.

Themed parties are becoming increasingly more common by incorporating different trends in culture or media, such as music. If you want to have a Beatles theme party, it's easier to decorate than you may have imagined. For a Beatles-style party, you can find most of the supplies at a local party supply store as well as at secondhand stores selling Beatles items.

Things You'll Need

• Beatles memorabilia
• '60s party decorations
• Wall decor

Instructions

1. Display Beatles memorabilia. Use records, figurines, posters, artwork or other Beatles merchandise as part of the party's decor. Find these items at secondhand stores and online shops if you don't currently own them.

2. Choose 1960s-style party decorations for the tables. This includes plates, cups, tablecloths, napkins and other items in bright colors and using patterns such as tie-dye, peace signs and other psychedelic items.

3. Decide on a specific Beatles theme for the party such as "Yellow Submarine," "strawberry Fields" or "Abbey Road" and decorate accordingly. For instance, a "Yellow Submarine" Beatles party may have the album and posters displayed for that album as well as figurines or models of yellow submarines and other Beatles-related decorations.

4. Decorate the walls with colorful beaded curtains, brightly-colored posters and other decor that fits in with the decade in which the Beatles were popular.
