3. Make an Angel centerpiece. An Angel candle, Angel figurine or Angel collectible and a little imagination can decorate your party table(s). Here are some ideas for creating a one of a kind Angel centerpiece.

For a Christmas party entrance way or buffet table have 3 different height Angel candles place on a candle plate or platter you already have. Decorate the candle plate with Christmas silk greenery and a Christmas print bow around the candles. For a large party with guest tables, have one small candle on a small plate with a little silk Christmas greenery and a smaller bow. For a Birthday party buffet or cake table have a birthstone Angel figurine sitting on a cloud of cotton. For a tea party table have a miniature Angel printed tea set on top of a small sturdy box covered with Angel printed cloth to look like a table cloth. For a baby shower buffet or cake table have an Angel figurine holding a baby in her arms on a cloud of cotton. For a wedding shower buffet or cake table have an all white fiber optic Angel collectible surrounded by party favors.

Make an Angel shape cake. Bake a small cake round and a large cake round. The small cake round is the head. From the large cake round cut a triangle piece in center. The triangle piece is the Angel's gown and the 2 side pieces turned sideways become the Angel's wings. Ice and decorate.

Instead of ice cream or packaged candy with brand names, you can very easily make Angel shape candy. You can buy inexpensive candy molds and candy melts at a craft store. All that is required for the candy melts is a microwave oven. Wrap the Angel candy in clear plastic wrap or foil or you can buy inexpensive candy wrappers at a craft store. Candy melts come in many colors such as red and green for Christmas, traditional chocolate for a birthday party, pink and blue for a baby shower and white for a wedding shower.

Have Angel party favors. Here are some ideas for Angel theme party favors.

For a Christmas party Angel ornaments
For a Birthday party or tea party an Angel pin, bracelet or necklace.
For a baby shower Cherub Angel refrigerator magnets.
For a wedding shower kitchen towel Angels.

For entertainment, play a Angelic game.

For a Christmas party have all the guest dress up as Angels. With Angel pens, all the guests vote for the best Angel costume and the guest with the most votes wins an Angel gift. For a Birthday party or a tea party have a draw the best Angel with Angel pens contest. The birthday girl or party hostess picks the winner, excluding herself of course, and the winner receives an Angel gift. For a baby shower or wedding shower have 1 Angel party favor that is different from all the rest. Wrap all the Angel party favors in tissue paper (baby colors for a baby shower or white for a wedding shower) and have the guests sit in a circle. While a short piece of Angelic music plays, the guests pass the party favors around the circle. When the music stops everyone opens their party favor and the one who holds the unique party favor in her hand wins an Angel gift.

Here are some more Angel theme party ideas:

For a Christmas party play Christmas songs that mention Angels in them and have the guest name that Christmas tune. For a birthday party, instead of cake candles, have a large Angel candle next to the cake to blow out and make a wish. The candle is also one of the birthday presents. For a tea party, complete an Angel craft for lots of Angelic fun. For a baby shower purchase inexpensive iron-on Angel decorations (cloth or embroidered) and packaged baby wash clothes. Iron the Angel decoration onto the baby wash clothes and use for napkins instead of paper napkins. These can later be washed and used by the new Mom. For a wedding shower purchase inexpensive iron-on Angel decorations (cloth or embroidered) and inexpensive white cloth table napkins. Iron the Angel decoration onto the table napkins. These can later be washed out used for another Angel theme party.

Select one or two colors for the Angel party theme and have matching plates, napkins, table cloths, balloons, etc. Here are some color combination ideas:

For a Christmas party red and gold, green and silver, white and midnight blue. For a birthday party the birthstone color for that month. For a garden tea party pastel yellow and green. For a baby shower pink and blue or pastel yellow and green. For a wedding shower white with the brides flower color choice.

For party decorations hang inexpensive, light weight Angel ornaments from twirled streamers. These Angel party decorations should match your color theme for the party.

An Angel theme party using these tips and tricks is sure to have your guest talking favorably about your party for years to come. Why some of your guests might give you the highest compliment a party hostess can get by copying you and having an Angel theme party of their own!
