Decorations
-
Green and yellow are the predominant colors when decorating with purchased items for a John Deere party. Choose to be creative and decorate in a farm theme. Set up hay bales, dried corn stalks, pumpkins, and corn cobs if available. Cover a wall with a large roll of paper and paint a barn on it. Have the guests add to the picture by using crayons or markers to draw animals and other farm items. Use John Deere toys as table decorations or to tie balloon bundles to. Traditional John Deere tractor toys are heavy and can hold down a large bundle of balloons.
Plastic farm animal toys can be scattered on the tables to accent the farm machinery. Small decorative bundles of hay and a red checkered table cloth add to the table decoration theme. Place food and treats in metal or galvanized buckets with a mini shovel for a scoop. Tie a red or John Deere bandanna on the handle to bring color to the decoration.
Party Favors
-
When party guests arrive, instead of party hats give each a bandanna to tie around their necks like a farmer. John Deere bandanna's can be purchased or made out of John Deere themed fabric. Party favor bags can be purchased to match the John Deere theme, or made low cost by using a brown paper bag. Use green or yellow colored bags and decorate them with John Deere stickers and green and yellow ribbon. Take pictures of the guests by creating a corn stalk and hay bale photo area. Print the pictures during the party and give them to each guest when they leave. Offer cowboy hats and bandannas to accent the pictures.
Food Choices
-
Farm animal cookies make a nice treat, or can be included in the party favor bags. Food for a John Deere party should be based on a farm picnic. Serve fried chicken, baked beans, potato salad, corn on the cob, watermelon and fresh lemonade. Decorate the table with bunches of sunflowers or wild flowers.
