Want to answer more questions in the Miscellaneous category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Random Weirdos?
Thats similar to what one of my friends are doing..so i am gonna steal some of her ideas =)!
wahtever party it is i think it is a given to have pizza. pizza always works. besides that, you can have cupcakes (stores have them specailly made for christmas, new years, etc. boxed or bought!) .
for games and activites, dance is a must-have. its a lot of fun so just have music going whether or not you expect everyone to dance. another good activity would be watching holiday themed movies, secret santa, decoriting photo frames && taking pictures ... hmm thats all i got for now!
decorations : have balloons (color theme appropriate with party theme) , christmas (trees), hannakah...etc., just fun stuff!
hope this helps a little..have tons of fun!

Hi There,
Is your place suitable? Whatever the size, consider the fixtures and fittings. Can you afford to let the carpets get mashed up, and how is your landlord going to react if someone puts the fridge through the window?
Who you gonna call? Controlling numbers is no easy task. Invitation only is good, although most party people packed that in when they were ten. Otherwise, go for word of mouth, but keep it to a trusted circle of friends and ask them to consult you before inviting anyone else.
One week before
Sort the sounds: You're not going to raise the roof with a personal tape player and a pair of Walkman speakers, so if your own sound system sucks then beg or borrow stuff from friends. If you know a DJ, beg or borrow them too. Either way, have someone in charge of the music all night, otherwise you run the risk of people rifling through your collection and laughing heartily at your Wombles records.
Protect your party: Consider hiring some muscle for the night. We're not talking about a professional bouncer, but free beer for the beefiest guy you know should secure a sufficiently intimidating party presence.
Suck up to the neighbours: Disarm potential grief by popping round in advance with a bottle of wine or a box of chocs. Even if they do wind up bashing on your door in their dressing gowns, you can be sure they'll have thought twice about it, which is a moral victory at least.
On the day
Prepare the house: Remove all valuables, breakables and eatables, and store them in a safe place. Establish whether this party is going to take over the whole house, or just a section, and cordon off accordingly.
If it's a biggie: Strip the place down, especially the kitchen, and even consider putting the corkscrew on a leash. If it moves, assume it'll be nicked.
Sort the drinks: But don't go mad, as people will bring their own. Getting in the soft drinks is always a good call, however, especially if the caners work up a thirst.
On the night
Start the party half an hour early: Don't wait for the first person to arrive. They'll arrive late anyway, and if the party's not already thumping, they'll leave as soon as you turn your back to plug in the stereo.
Do a sweep for litter: Every hour or so, just enough to stop the party turning into a pig sty.
Enjoy yourself: And if it does go a little pear-shaped, and overrun by hoolies, just pick up the phone and call the police. Why not? It's your house, after all.
Hope this helped
