    Use these easy and useful hacks to make your next house party easy and memorable!

    Chill White Wine Without Harming Its Flavor

    Add some color and chill your wine with the fruit of the vine itself!

    Pour Cheap Vodka Through A Brita Filter To Instantly Improve Its Taste

    Most vodkas are filtered through charcoal multiple times in order to remove bad tasting elements. A Brita filter acts in the same way. Run your terrible vodka through a couple times and wow your guests with its improved taste.

    Tie A Bottle Opener To Your Tub For Easy Access

    Don't let the bottle opener walk away for the millionth party. This simple trick will ensure all guests can open their bottles with ease.

    Use Condiments To Mark Who Gets What

    Having anything with ketchup, or buns? Even a fancier plate can be cleverly decaled by edible condiments to ensure guests all get a plate with the right kind/amount of food.

    Chocolate Bowl

    Perfect for ice cream, yogurt, strawberries, or…hell, anything! Use an edible bowl made from chocolate to take any snack to the next level. Pour melted chocolate onto a balloon and freeze it, then pop the balloon to reveal your new bowl!

    Pour Champagne Over Cotton Candy To Steal The Show

    The "melting" effect of fizzy champagne, coupled by the red color change and addictive sweet taste will take your party to the next level.

    Cut Ice Cream To Easily Divvy Servings

    Cut a quart or pint of ice cream in half and peel off the label before slicing individual servings. Leave half of the container in tact and cover the open side with parchment or plastic wrap for future use.

    String A Set Of Red Solo Cup Lights

    Cut or drill out holes in your solo cups and fit them over Christmas lights to create a perfect party atmosphere!

    Easy Cheesy Bread

    Who doesn't love cheesy bread!? Well, now you can get a whole heaping helping of the stuff in just a few minutes! Cut a loaf of bread in a checkerboard pattern and put slices of cheese in the cuts. Add green onions and poppy seeds, wrap in foil, and then cook.

    Color Liquor With Food Coloring To Hide It From Moochy Guests

    Make Your Own Sharpie Food Bar

    Cover your serving table with parchment paper to make a spill proof cover you can also label for your guests.

    Cut Open & Clean Out A Pepper As An Edible Ranch Dispenser

    Pick out a few different colors of bell peppers for a festive effect, and buy one or two hot peppers to grate over the top to heat things up!

    Freeze A Large Ice Block To Cool Punch For Hours

    A large ice block cools punch quickly and keeps it cold for hours without melting, meaning your chilled refreshment will also not be watered down later on.

    Follow Red Solo Cup Lines For A Proper Pour

    Coincidentally, the markings on your favorite party cup are great for measuring standard size drinks for most beverages. Simply follow the infographic above for any standard wines, beers, or liquors.

    Fold A Bag On the Inside For A Disposable Chip Bowl

    Forget big tedious dishes and simply fold the upper edges of a chip bag on the inside to make an appropriately labeled chip bowl. Fold the underside in to keep the bag upright, and to push the chips up for easy access.

    Trace You Cake Design With A Toothpick

    Doing this beforehand ensures you make no mistakes when you actually start applying icing to the cake, as it were.

    Freeze Water Balloons To Festively Chill Your Bottles

    Add a splash of color to your bottle service with frozen water balloons for a long-lasting no mess solution!

    Ice Down Bottles In Your Washing Machine

    Worry no longer about the watery mess of a cooler the morning after! Simply ice down your washing machine and any melting water will drain away.

    Serve Cheese With This Personalized Plate!

    Paint a serving tray black and follow up with some chalk for an elegant and reusable tray.

    Wedge Electric Votives In Your Balloons For Awesome Backyard Lighting

    Battery powered votives are cheap, reusable, and battery powered, so why not stuff them inside your party balloons to create an amazing glowing effect that also lights your backyard or front stoop.

    Orange You Glad

    Peeling an orange can be a bit messy sometimes, but it doesn't have to be with the help of a knife and three well-placed cuts. Cut off the top and bottom of the orange so you can see the segments, and then slide your knife in a central line between segments. Then just open the peel and all your orange slices are there!

    Put Glow Sticks In A Beverage Jug After Midnight

    Throw a glow stick in your beer tub after hours to keep the party flowing!

    Cut Open & Clean Out A Pepper As An Edible Ranch Dispenser

    Pick out a few different colors of bell peppers for a festive effect, and buy one or two hot peppers to grate over the top to heat things up!

    Tonic Water And Black Lights Make For Awesomeness

    Hosting a black light party? Make some gin and tonics, or simply add a dash of tonic to any drink for a next level glowing effect.
