Graduation Party Decorations for Outdoors

If your party will be held mostly outside then hang some mementos from your graduate's life outside ... on a clothesline or fence for example.

Sports jerseys & uniforms, dance costumes, figure skating outfits, prom dresses, graduation gown & mortarboard, and college apparel can be hung outside as a tribute to your grad.

We don't recommend hanging these too early though ... in case it rains or gets windy.  Hanging them the day of the party is best.

Yard signs are a fun way to greet your guests and guide them to your party location.  Put them on your front lawn, on the corner of your street, or even at the entranceway of your subdivision!

If you're holding your party in your back yard, you can even use a yard sign to guide people around the back of your house or through your gate rather than having them come through your house.

Some yard signs are weather-resistant so you can put them out ahead of time.  If the elements are an issue for you then look for this feature.

Yard signs can be personalized or not.  Personalized signs are one more way to honor your graduate.  And they're especially helpful if there's more than one graduation party going on in your neighborhood at the same time.  We know of one guest who went to a party only to realize about half an hour after they arrived they were at the wrong party! 

Shindigz has several different Yard Signs to choose from including weather-resistant, inflatable, and laminated cardboard signs.  Click here to see their selection and to order.

Balloons are an economical way to decorate outside.  You can create balloon bouquets for outside tables and you can line your driveway and walkways.  Balloons on your lawn can be kept in place with large nails or tent pegs.

Keep in mind that after a while air and helium leaks out of balloons, so don't hang them or put them outside too early.  Latex balloons lose air and helium much faster than Mylar.  Latex balloons will usually last only a day while Mylar balloons will last for several days.

Stick to your color theme, use balloons in your grad's high school or college colors, or use graduation-themed balloons.  But be sure to order them ahead of time, especially if you want a lot.  The selection of graduation balloons is incredible, so go in to the store and select them ahead of time.  Most stores require prepayment for large orders.

For online shopping, Shindigz has lots of fun graduation balloons including Mylar balloons in the shape of the year and latex balloons decorated with mortar boards. They also have helium tanks, balloon closures and balloon weights.  Click here to check out their selection and to order.
