KMart Outdoor Makeover Flamingo Soirée~Day 4

written by Rebecca E. Parsons

This is day 4 of a four part series showcasing my outdoor makeover, courtesy of KMart, and a Flamingo Soirée, inspired by Party Bluprints dot Com, to celebrate my new outdoor space.

THE SOIRéE

Finally, I am able to focus my attention on hosting a Flamingo Soirée for friends and family. With my KMart Outdoor Makeover complete, my invitations sent, my party paper decor set, menu planned and executed…I can now put into effect all the tips and tricks I learned from  the Outdoor Entertaining Party Blueprint from Party Bluprints, sit in my new outdoor space and enjoy the soiree!!!

Dawn of Party Bluprints writes, OUTDOOR PARTIES can be easy and enjoyable when you are prepared and have a great plan.

Let’s get this party started!

    I am going to have to try Rebecca’s s’mores one of these days… pink perfection!

    The lanai looks even better at night- the lights are beautiful.

    It looks like your party and the decor turned out really fun and festive. I’m not personally a big fan of pink, so I’ve never really thought to do a flamingo themed party, but your ideas were really cute and creative. I saw that your menu had a flamingo cocktail on it- what kind of drink did you make for that? Also, you said that the outdoor furniture is new from Kmart; is it comfortable and easy to clean?
