With March Madness beginning in the next week, basketball is on everyone's mind! You can throw your own March Madness party or even a basketball themed birthday party with a little help from our blog.
A fun way to invite party-goers to a birthday party is to design the invitations to look like tickets to a game.
Two variations of March Madness invitations. You can design your invite to don the color of your favorite team on the jersey invite above.
Basketball Burgers: Make your own mini sliders with basketball branded cheese.
Basketball themed plates, cups and napkins.
No sports party is complete without buffalo chicken dip.
Here's how to make your own:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
2. Combine one 8 oz. package of cream cheese, 1/2 cup of Frank's Red Hot Buffalo sauce, 1/2 cup of ranch, 2 cups shredded cooked chicken and 1/2 cup of shredded cheese in a 1-quart baking dish
3. Bake 20 min. Stir and serve with crackers
Get creative with something as simple as cheese and crackers. Draw lines of a basketball on your round pieces of cheese with food coloring pen and top on round crackers.
Serve ranch with carrots or other veggies with a sign that says, "Dunk it!"
Serve apple turnovers with a sign that says, "Turnovers" to keep with the basketball theme.
Serve M&M's that are your favorite team's colors in a dish for your March Madness snack table.
Create balloon pillars to outline your front door of your party!
Create a march Madness party table by using a lot of orange colors to stick with the basketball theme. Using food sold at sporting events works as well. For example: Pizza, hot dogs, wings, burgers and fries.
