Posted by Stumps Spirit on September 18, 2009

Cowboy-Boot-ArchFor a fall dance, such as Homecoming, a Western theme can be a lot of fun, as it incorporates earth-tones, barns, and other fun fall festivities. Stumps Spirit has plenty of Western themed decorations to help you create a fantastic Western themed Homecoming dance!

Create an awesome entrance to your Western themed dance with our Cowboy Boot Arch (pictured at right). The arch is fantastic for creating photo settings too. It stands 9′ 11″ high x 12′ 8″ wide x 2′ and features bright balloons attached to cowboy boot standees.

To totally transform your Homecoming venue with our Night in the Old West Kit. The kit features an awesome set of Western themed decorations to turn your dance into an Old West Scene, such as an Old West Bank and Trust, an Old West Jail, an Old West Hotel, an Old West Livery, and a Wild West Entrance. Set up each of the western themed standees in the Night in the Old West Kit to create the scene! The kit makes a fantastic focal point for your event and provides a great setting for dancing, mixing, and taking pictures.

For a base for your theme kit decorations, cover the floors in sand colored flat paper. For a path, use woodgrain or brick flat paper over the top of the sand colored flat paper. Our Western Sunset Backdrop. The backdrop features a stunning desert sunset picture printed on your choice of cardboard, vinyl, or mural paper and is available in several sizes to fit your venue!

Accent your theme décor with other Western decorations, such as our Sherrif’s Star Standee. It is edged with twinkle lights and makes a great accent to your dance floor or picture area. Our rustic split-rail fences are an awesome, decorative way to create crowd control. Add some of our giant cornshocks for a great fall feel. Don’t forget barbed wire garland and plenty of bandannas!

Our Artisan Banner is a fantastic way to announce the dance or to welcome students. The banner is printed on heavy-duty, weather-resistant vinyl and features your custom wording on a rustic Old-West background. Plus, all of our banners are available in several sizes for you to choose what suits your Homecoming.

If you’re having Homecoming favors, our Western Custom Creation Celestial Mint Tin is a fantastic choice for a western theme Homecoming dance. The star-shaped mint tins hold ½ oz of peppermints and are printed with your custom wording and a western horseshoe image on the lid. Students will love them!

Host a Hawaiian Paradise Homecoming for Luau Dance Fun

Posted by Stumps Spirit on September 2, 2009

Hawaiian-Paradise-Homecoming-DecorationsA Hawiian Luau theme is a great way to add some summer style to your Homecoming dance or other school event. Stumps Spirit has several great luau theme kits and tons of luau decorating accents to help you create a festive luau dance.

The Hawaiian Paradise Kit (shown at right) is a fantastic choice for creating a beach-side scene at your event. To get the effect, set up our Hawaiian Paradise Scene, which includes a set of palm trees, a personalized hut, a beach standee, and surfboard standees. The whole scene stands 6’10” tall and 14’ wide. Spice the scene up with a Hawaiian Volcano. The cardboard volcano standee stands 3’1” tall and 2’10” wide and makes another great focal point.

For a stunning background for your scene, try a Seaside Sunset Background Illustration. You can choose to have the photo printed on cardboard, vinyl, or mural paper in one of several sizes to fit your venue.

Our Palm Tree Horizon Background is another wonderful backdrop option. The 8’ x 32’ backdrop creates the impression of a far-off palm forest.

Welcome students to the dance with a Pineapple Personalized Banner. The banner is printed on heavy-duty, weather-resistant vinyl with a bright pineapple and lei pattern and your custom wording. Plus, the banner is available in several sizes. Use a series of these great banners for advertising and designating important places (photos, coat check, etc) at the dance too.

No luau theme dance is complete without palm trees. Set up one of our several types of palm trees—or a combination of styles—around your luau dance for a truly tropical look. Our Pearl Palm Trees are a lovely choice!

Don’t forget tropical luau decorating basics such as fishnet, leis, water patterened gossamer, raffia, and coconut votive candles!

We have awesome favors for a luau theme dance too. Our Tropical Custom Creation Mint Tin is a fun and functional dance favor that is printed on the lid with a beach scene and your custom wording.

The Tropical Custom Creation Pure Allure Frame has a lovely beach scene, your custom wording, and a space for students to put their favorite picture from the dance!
