You can use the same white tablecloth and twinkly lights for background when the centerpiece, food, napkins and drinks carry the theme. Check our recipes for party punch and party drinks like a Chocolate Martini and Fun Fizz Party Punch.

Party Punch and Party Drinks for Themed Parties

Use martini glasses for party punch or party drinks. Instead of painting them, use colored ribbon. Loop ribbon around the stem with a drop of hot glue. Add other decorations to fit the holiday. Remove ribbons for the next themed party and use the same glasses for party punch or party drinks.
