Pirate Party Time, Gather Round ye mangy sea dogs,

Sorry about calling ye mangy sea dogs, I just couldn't help meself. The Pirate Party does it to me every time mates. It's so much fun.

But really now, who would of thought a rag tag band of rum drinkin, treasure stealing, non bathing, seagoing scallywags would ever reach legendary status.

Just goes to show you the awsome power of JOHNNY DEPP . He's quite the handsome SWASHBUCKLER indeed. Pirates of the Caribbean have done as much for buccaneers as cavemen have done for the wheel! ARRR!

Cool Pirate Invitation

Use brown paper bags for your invitations. Tear into pieces big enough to write your information on. Soak briefly in tea to add some stains. If your a fire bug, like me, carefully burn the edges a little for an even more aged look.

Be sure to check out our pirate dictionary [link at bottom of page] and write like a pirate! A neat way to send the invitations is to put them in a 16 ounce water bottle. Put a small amount of sand in the bottle. Attach address lable to the bottle. You can send these right in the mail. The cost will be about $.60.

Pirate Costume

• Baggy pants or shorts in summer months in black or kaki color.
• Horizontal striped shirts, black and white, red and white, and brown and white all work well.
• Thick leather belts around the waist or tie fabric [red or black] in a sash so that it hangs down a few inches.
• Black eye patches.
• Pirate head bandanas
• Hat Party in a Box Pirate Hats. [see link below]
• Plastic pirate swords.

Decorations

• As with most Birthday Parties Balloons lead the way. Black and red of course.
• Treasure Chest-- Turn any toy chest into a treasure chest. Wrap chest in gold crepe paper. Use a blanket or pillow to fill bottom of treasure chest and fill the top with treasure, [plastic jewels, chocolate coins, compasses, ect.]
• Pirate Flags-- Cut a rectangle 10 inches by 16 inches out of black fabric. Use stick on felt skull and crossbones. Attach to bamboo pole.
• Hang a couple of skeletons. If you don't have any real ones, the halloween kind will have to do!
• Theme plates, cups, ect. available online at orientaltrading.com and many other sites.

Speaking of handsome young swashbucklers. This be Captain GEE in the fancy pirate hat. Cap'n GEE has lots of loot for him and his ship mates to decorate these fine pirate hats. GEE and his crew are certain to scare off any passing scallywags or sea dogs! You too can have these awesome hats for you're cap'n and crew. We only put a few decorations on this hat so you can see the hat.
