Oscar Party Ideas Starring M&M’S®!

Oscar Party Ideas Starring M&M’S®!

Have you noticed that it's award season on T.V.? We've been trying to keep up, there are soooo many.  It's another fun way to spend time as a family by making ceremony watching a little extra fun. I put together some simple and fun ideas to make your Oscar viewing party a hit whether for a crowd or just your family. To make it even more memorable, keep your eyes open while watching because M&M’S® is commemorating the biggest night in Hollywood by debuting a commercial on national TV that shows M&M’S characters invading the movies! I can't wait to see! This post is sponsored by M&M’S®, all opinions are my own.

Totally cute and easy Oscar party ideas!

 

I had the idea of setting a party scene with a movie theater theme along with hints of glam to highlight the upscale event. You know, actors in their finest attire.  Some absolutely movie watching classics are popcorn, candy and soda!  I used these three things as the main focus. Since M&M’S and movies go together perfectly, they are a colorful way to invite a pop of fun to any party.  Tasty to eat and pretty to look at. Total win.

Here are some of my simple ideas for Oscar Parties:

Cute matching baggies with baker's twine really float my boat.  Serve up your favorite M&Ms in individual matching baggies for easy grabbing.

When it comes to picking your favorite M&M's, that should be easy. There's classic Milk Chocolate and then Peanut of course. If you are looking for something fun that's made a big come back this year, they even have Crispy. These have become a quick favorite. They have a perfect crispy filling for an added bit of fun.

Tie up your baggies and they are perfect to add to your presentation. See how cute they look?

It's virtually flavor-less, so it's perfect for making the presentation pop. Just don't add too much because it can make your popcorn soggy.   Add your favorite M&Ms and you have yourself an Oscar worthy treat in just a few minutes!

For added touches, I shopped at my local hobby store. Look for the carnival party section to find all types of neat ideas from tickets to cute popcorn holders.  I loved the addition of real tickets to my Oscar party table.

For a final spark of glam, I created some simple photo props and decorations.  Print these mustaches & lips here.

I cut them out, used a glue stick and gold and red glitter to decorate them. Then, I glued them to paper straws. Let dry and use them for photo props and decorations.
