It’s getting hot out there and fast! Summer is finally here and the days are getting longer and sunnier. It’s time for us to embrace it with tons of parties, and what’s better than a good ‘ol seasonal themed party? Â I can’t think of anything more Summer than watermelon, so you may consider some watermelon party ideas for your next Summer bash.
Watermelon is definitely in when it comes to parties and for good reason. You can do so many creative and cute things with it. Whether you’re looking to eat your watermelon or use it as a hat, there’s definitely a couple things from this list you’re going to want to include in your party.

Grab some of those flowers that bloomed during the spring and use them in a watermelon centerpiece!

Keep your friends feeling appreciated, so they are ready to attend your next party, with some old fashioned party favor tags.
Serving Spoons
Because of the simple application, this is an easy DIY, even for those who aren’t that artistic!

Fruity pizza, anyone?
Cupcakes
Cupcakes are a great quick grab for guests hanging around the kitchen.

Because they make a cute accent, you can totally include these pops individually wrapped in that party favor gift basket.
Sweet Tea

Push Pops
I used to love push pops as a kid, however someone had to buy them for me, but now I can make them myself. : )
