Race Car Party Stamps

Personalize your stamps by using one of the great zazzle auto racing stamps. Please be sure to bring a complete invitation, including all inserts, to a local post office to determine exactly how much postage is required. If you decide not to customize, please do not mix stamps. It is better to add too much postage than a hodgepodge of mismatched stamps. You have spent so much time and money on every other detail, the difference in price is not worth giving a sloppy first impression.

Race Car Party Table Linens

You have many options to create a fun and sporty NASCAR look. Your choice will ultimately come down to a combination of what your room looks like and how daring you feel. Party Idea Pros first choice is to create a similar look to that in the photo on the BBJ Linen site. It truly is one of our all time favorite looks: Black and White striped linen with fun accent colors. It works great with the Arte Felguerez Formula 1 car sculptures — just the right combination of classy and fun. Rent white or black folding chairs.

For a safer look, either choose a single color or any combination of the above colors. Choose either a matching napkin or a black & white stripe napkin. Use a matching lamour chair ties on simple black or white folding chairs or coordinating chair covers all with black chair ties. If you want to save some money, most venues will supply complimentary white or cream linens; stick with white unless you prefer a more vintage look.

…

Likewise, if you are hosting an auto racing theme party at your house just about any color linen you have will be fine, in fact, place mats will also work great, and to tell you the truth, individual sheets of scrap booking paper work great and are adorable. Choose any solid colored paper or any of the patterns pictured below. If you are feeling creative and have lots of time, you can even create a layout highlighting your guest of honor. Alternatively, use your place mats as place cards by creating a page for each of your guests. Laminate it and tie with personalized ribbon for a complete favor anyone can enjoy.

Just a note on chair covers: chair covers may not be necessary if the chairs supplied are fairly neutral and in ok condition. In fact, I tend to not use chair covers at any of my personal parties. Having said that, if your budget permits, the overall look of this particular theme would be enhanced if chair pads are used to pick up one of your accent colors.

…

If you are having a fairly large party, don’t forget to include your place card table, your gift table, buffet tables, and any ceremonial tables when determining your linen count. Also, if you chose to use more ornate linens, do not use them for the cocktail hour; they will have a greater impact as your guests enter the dining room.
