Colour Scheme?

This is by far the easiest part of your decorating. By using Black and Green Napkins, Table covers and Cutlery you’re already half way there. Shop our full range of Green party items here and you’ll find every Black party item here

Let’s talk backdrops!

This cheap and effective idea will have the kids amazed when really all you’ve used is plates. That’s right – Plates, the kind you can eat off. We recommend using these Plastic plates as they have a sharper (not rounded) edge which will give a cleaner square block look.
Grab yourself 10 Packs of Plates (3x Black and 7x Green) and pack of White Tac (which if you didn’t know is just Blue Tac but White which helps prevent staining on walls)

We currently only have 1 shade of Green in the plates, however a $5 can of spray paint from your local Bunnings will give you a second or even a third shade of green to work with. Use this handy printable guide on where to put your plates. All in all you’ve spent roughly $30, a bit of craft time and created something that will cover a 1.4 meter squared area – perfect for behind the food table or to take group photos in front of.

Now Food! The most important part of every party.

We’ve all been to kids parties where they serve your standard lollies, chips, Fairy bread (an Aussie classic and still a favourite), sausage rolls and party pies. But what if, by changing the names of these party foods, you change the whole game!

Cut EVERYTHING in to squares. No more triangle fairy bread! Use our range of single coloured sprinkles to stick within your Black and Green colour scheme. Brownies can now be called Dirt! Green Jelly could be Slime, Blue Jelly are easily turned into Water Blocks, Wrap Red Liccorice together and create TNT, Name your Pretzels Swords, Twisties are the new Carrots and if your wanting something healthy name your Strawberries, Redstone - SO MUCH REDSTONE!

We've compiled a lot more ideas on our Pinterest board so head over and take a look, you'll be even more inspired and relieved on just how easy this can be! You may know nothing about Minecraft but with these simple decorating tips even your kids will think you’re an advanced player and throwing a Minecraft party just got a whole lot easier with the new TNT range at Shindigs!! Just remember the main thing when planning your Minecraft party is to think outside the box!
