Farm Party Decoration Ideas

The beauty of creating farm-themed party decorations is that you can use basic household items to create a rustic, casual look. Transform items you already own or that grow in your garden, such as pumpkins and flowers, into charming farm-inspired decorations. Save money by allowing birthday party guests to take the decor pieces home as favors. Does this Spark an idea?

Country-Inspired Wagon

When planning a farm-themed birthday party for a child, incorporate a red wagon into the decor plans. Choose a vintage red wagon for extra charm and fill it with hay. If the party is taking place in autumn, decorate several white and orange pumpkins with farm animal-inspired faces using markers. You can also use craft paint to enhance the pumpkins prior to decorating them; for instance, use pink paint for a pig face or black and white paint for a cow face. Arrange the decorated pumpkins on top of the hay in the wagon. Set the wagon anywhere within the party space.

Bandanna Table Textiles

Decorate the birthday party dinner or dessert table with farm wear-inspired touches. Sew several vibrantly hued paisley-printed bandanna together to create a whimsical runner, and lay it down the center of the table. Use all red bandannas for a traditional look, or create a colorful style using blue, green, orange and yellow bandannas as well. Place paper plates on woven bamboo plate holders for a country-inspired look. Set a glass ball jar by each plate setting for guests' drinks. Roll new bandannas as cloth napkins as secure them with cow, pig or horse-shaped napkin holders. Use a vintage vase filled with sunflowers or yellow daisies as a centerpiece.

Stuffed Animal Centerpiece

As a simple and eye-catching party table centerpiece, transform a farm-inspired stuffed animal into creative table decor. Choose a charming cow, pig, chicken or sheep plush toy and set it in the middle of the table. Buy a helium balloon featuring a farm-inspired design, a long ribbon string and a "happy birthday" message. Tie the end of the balloon's ribbon around the plush toy so it stays anchored to the party table. The centerpiece is especially sweet for a young child's birthday bash.
