Things You'll Need

• Spring flowers such as tulips or daffodils

Instructions

1. Send an evite to your friends inviting them to your party. Tell them to wear bright, spring colors. Guys can follow a more lax dress code.

2. Spring is all about vivid, lively colors and soft pastels. Grab some colorful flowers from a local florist, such as tulips, daffodils and irises. Places them in two vases with water on each side of the food table.

3. For the food table, cut up pineapples, strawberries, oranges and other fruit and put it onto a tray.

4. Prepare a fresh salad and two meat dishes that are easy to serve or pick up finger-food style. For dessert, purchase fruit tarts or peach cobbler from a local bakery. Or, prepare it yourself.

5. Serve punch, bottled water and/or white wine for those who drink alcohol.

6. As guests arrive, put on some music. Give them time to mingle and grab food and drinks from the food table. Then, let the games begin.

7. Play competition hangman, Pictionary or some other type of competitive guessing game. While this may seem juvenile, this is a great way to get guests interacting. There should be a prize for the winning team.

8. After the game, turn up the music and allow guests to continue to mingle, snack and socialize.
