Tacky And Trashy Party

We had a trailer trash birthday party for my husbands 33rd birthday.  We just moved into a really suburban neighborhood, so you can imagine the looks we are still getting from the neighbors. 

INVITATIONS:I took clip art that I found online of redneck origin, a bent beer can, an old truck and invited everyone to come dressed in white trash attire and to bring some beer and grub. 

DECORATIONS: I hung a clothes line up from our fence to a tree in the yard and filled it with lovely clothing articles that I picked up at the second hand store, including: a huge bra, some cut off shorts, beer labelled t-shirts, some grandpa undies(you know the ones), socks with stains and wholes..you get the picture  I put aluminum foil in the windows, and ripped sections to make it look old and used.  I hung some old beach towels and sheets in some of the other windows.   I made a beer windchime, which doubled as an asstray...very useful.  My friend is a mechanic, so we borrowed hubcaps and hung them at various heights along our fence. 

Then of course there was lawn décor an old sink, that we filled with ice and beer, santa and his reindeer decorations that lit up at night, empty laundry detergent bottles, shoes, a stroller turned on its side, a bunch of beer bottles/cans of course   oh and the bathtub we are renovating so we had one laying around literally.  Inside, I covered all the furniture with old sheets, and used cut open garbage bags as a table cloth for the coffee table. 

FOOD: We had pork and beans with crunched up taco chips, canned cheese, hotdogs, hamburgers, a variety of dips, tator tots, and squirrel stew(not really), jello shooters, and of course beer 

CAKE: I found a hilarious toilet cake that was an angel food cake with white icing, filled with yellow jello and chocolate slowpokes.  I made the upper part of the toilet with paper and cardboard that read.."after 33, it all goes to crap"  The cake was a hit, tasted good and the kids loved it. 

GAMES:For games we had frozen t-shirts.  I soaked and folded shirts and froze them in the deep freeze overnight, then I handed them out to unsuspecting guests who had to try to get the shirt on first.    We also had a carve the spam contest.  I bought the no-name stuff yuck nobody was eating it anyways and it was way cheaper.  The deal was they had to make a hood ornament in 2 minutes.   

We also had a hook the underwear game.  I nailed some bigger nails onto the fence and they took turns trying to get as many undies out of 5 onto the nails on the fence.  

For prizes we had whoopie cushions, toilet brush sets, redneck plastic teeth from the local dollar store.  It was a family bbq and everyone had a great time.  I can't wait for the next one.
