Interested in hosting a Fall Pinterest Party for your mom friends? This is the ultimate fall get-together guide: recipes, crafts, desserts & drinks! Plus ideas for the kids as well.
Did you know that throwing a Pinterest Party is an actual thing?
Like, not something I just made up as an excuse to be on Pinterest, but a real, actual thing people do?
If you didn’t, then I’ll be the first to say, welcome to the dark side, friend.
There is absolutely no going back from this. 🙂
A Pinterest Party is essentially the ultimate girl’s get-together.
- There are crafts
- cocktails
- delicious, next-level treats
- and there are decidedly no toddlers around to spill said cocktails on said crafts and/or delicious treats (unless you want to include them – I’ve got you covered!)
So if I’ve got you hooked and you’re thinking to yourself: Yes, I want to go to there, then listen closely, because I’ve got the Ultimate Fall Pinterest Party guide for you today – AKA – everything you need to know so you can throw the most amazing pumpkin-spice-everything girl’s day, Q&A included!
Pinterest Party Q & A
FAQs
I swear I didn’t make this up! I’ve been to a few and hosted a few myself!
A Pinterest Party is essentially a themed get-together, in this case, Fall-themed. Everyone brings a dish they found on Pinterest (potluck style) and the materials to do a craft (also found on Pinterest).
An evite, group text, or Facebook invite all work! You want each guest to be able to share what they’re going to bring.
This is also a great way for each mom to share what craft she’ll be bringing.
I love a good themed party and a seasonal party is even easier to plan. For this type of party, the idea is to pick something super “Pinterest-y” that maybe you wouldn’t normally make. Really go for it!
How to Host the Ultimate Fall Pinterest Party
Following the Q&A above, you’ll want to:
- Choose your guest list
- Send out invites or create a Facebook event
- In the invite description, explain the theme and ask each guest to comment with what craft they will bring
Pinterest Party Craft
You can do this one of two ways:
- The host picks the craft and provides the materials for everyone.
- Everyone picks their own craft to do and brings their own materials with them.
Here are 2 fall craft ideas to inspire you (one for the moms, one if kids are invited!)

Great idea
Thanks, Erica!
I’ve never tried a Pinterest party, going to have to try and host one. I love Pinterest!
Me too! Definitely give it a try! They are really fun!
I love this idea!!! As the queen of pinterest failure recipes LOL, this would be a daring venture! This idea is in the back of my brain, thanks so much! What a great reason to get together!!!
Right? If anything, it’s fun just to get together with friends! Haha I have had my fair share of Pinterest Fails as well!
I want to have a Fall Pinterest party now! Sounds like a blast!
I hope you do! They are super fun!
This looks so fun! I wish I had more mommy friends I could do this with lol.
I feel you! This could totally be done with just 1 other person, too!
These are such great tips, Marla! I haven’t even thought of that before but now super excited to give it a go one day. It will sound super sad but since hubby and I have relocated we have been living far away from friends and family. So it has been tough to stay in touch and get together the way we all used to (we have the most amazing group of friends!). We hope to move back if the door opens up or move somewhere when we can feel like home, and where I can host such parties 🙂

Totally trying that hummus! Fun post!

I’ve always loved the idea of a Pinterest Party. I have to plan to join on this season because I need some ideas for the home.
Yes! I get so many good ideas for our house on Pinterest.

Haha yes! The Pinterest Party is definitely a momparty.
This is so much fun and just perfect! Definitely trying those scrubs. I love homemade scrubs.
Same here! They leave your skin feeling so silky. Lavender & Rosemary is another favorite combo of mine.
