Party Supplies – All Things Pineapple

Take your pineapples to the beach! Create a Pineapple themed beach vacation for a summer trip to remember! (or Lake or River - we are not fussy!) Photo by Pineapple Supply Co. on Unsplash Pineapples belong on all your beach vacation accoutrements: towels, hats, bags, cover ups, bathing suits, flip flops, cups, you name it! We will explore all kinds of ways a vacation at a beach house can be made even sunnier with the fabulous pineapple as your theme.

A Perfect Beach House Imagine your front yard as warm sand with gentle lapping waves and shady palm trees. Put a couple of lounge chairs and umbrellas up and your beach vacation is ready. My perfect beach house has a wide open kitchen and living spaces looking out onto the ocean, a huge lanai deck with lots of eating and lounge areas, plus a grill and fire place or fire pit. Then just a step or two down to the sand then the water. (Oh, can you picture that fabulous outdoor shower off to the side for your transition from beach to house? Me too.) Inside this fantasy beach house, there are tons of bedrooms full of comfy beds for you and your whole family and/or guests. Also plenty of bathrooms with deep bathtubs and showers. Windows everywhere so you can see the ocean, palm trees, puffy clouds and the stars a night. Maybe you end up sleeping on the lanai one night because you want to be filled with starlight.

A family reunion or wedding or special celebration of any kind can be made more fun when you do that something extra for everyone joining in the fun. Since I'm currently fantasizing about beach houses and this is a website about all things pineapple, I'm going to use the golden fruit as an example on how to do this. Start with a place to stay and how long you'll be there. If your stay is about a week, that makes theming it up even better. Pick your theme - PINEAPPLE! Then make a list of all the things you can get to put that theme in action. Find That Beach House! Did you know you can search AirBnb by type of house? Farms, Mansions, Treehouses, Cabins, Islands, Yurts, and more! (My personal favorite is A-Frame.) And of course BEACH. Get that mouse clicking on the zillions of options, use the map feature to find a location that suits you best then find that beach house! Big or small, whatever suits, just make sure you are excited about this particular destination. Send out the invites and confirm the number of guests. If it's a big group with multiple families or groups of friends, you could tag team with others to pull all these pineapple themed ideas together and spread any expense. Also, getting everyone on board a theme could be fun if they all do their own spin on it. Maybe you are renting three places side by side so each place could have it's own version of the chosen theme. Then you can mix and match over the course of the trip. Make A List Of Items For The Pineapple Theme This can be as simple as bringing pineapple cups, napkins and cutlery to having personalized wine glasses with pineapples and each person's name. So many things can be pineappleized! (Yes, I did just make up a word.) cupsnapkinscutlerywine glassespaper platesdecorationsbeach towelstote bagstoiletry bagsflip flopsbeach toysumbrellashatsbathing suitscoverupst-shirtsbeach chairs Divide and conquer on who might bring what items and make sure there is enough lead time to personalize if that is what you want to do. If it's just straight up Pineapples, then that's even easier. Let's look at a few examples of items you can get. You can get a lot of things on this list from a store like Party City.
