When planning a Hen Night for you and a group of your best friends, what little things can be done to keep the night fun? The devil is in the details and when organising a Hen Night, dont be afraid to use some accessories to promote the affair. Hen night accessories can range from the sublime to the really naughty and can jazz up any party. Remember, this is the final wild hurrah before married life, so make it count!

Sometimes the most fun and easiest way to accessories is to match. Donning some matching t-shirts for the girls in your group, or some custom accessories to show the world what youre up to is always a fun way to identify your group. Just about anything from pictures of the blushing bride to cartoon mischief on the front of those shirts should let people know what youre celebrating.

Spice it up! One suggestion we recommend is to think up a motif for you and your girlfriends. On www.cocky-hen.com you will find heaps of ideas for Hens Night, such as a devil motif. Simply put on some horns to show people youre out to be little devils, and perhaps you can have some fun with the eye makeup at the same time. As well, theres nothing wrong with wearing some fun black wings to emphasise the image.

If this doesnt fit your image, then think about some naughty gifts. Everything from lacy lingerie to oddly-shaped massagers can be included and thats not all.

Where are you going to have the party? Simply adding handouts, such as streamers, hats or buttons can boost the atmosphere. Perhaps even something as really naughty as bottle trainers designed in precarious shapes (to help the bride-to-be with her form) can jazz up the atmosphere and get people in the right frame of mind.

Also, why not make small changes to some existing games? If youre at a pub, convince the publican to exchange that dart board for some appendage-themed entertainment. Its only for an evening and the majority of bars are happy to help.

How do you kick off your Hens Night and make it memorable for you and your girls? There are several cheeky suggestions for getting everyone loosened up and ready to party and this article is going to lay out what fun things you can do to see your night is carried out right, with the best hen party ideas out there!

First off, youll need some ice breakers to jazz up the atmosphere. Alcohol does the job nicely, but beyond that, some no-nonsense party games along with your favourite wine and chocolates can get tongues wagging and smiles growing. Perhaps a game of Ive never ever. Give each guest a name tag or badge (some great badge hints can be found at www.cocky-hen.com.) and a list of crazy acts. Ask each girl if theyve never ever and fill in the blank. Its a fantastic way to get to know your party guests and to liven up the atmosphere.

Next on the agenda, food is an important ingredient to provide your ladies with the energy theyll be needing for partying later. Cheese and chocolate is always a favourite, and what can be considered more indulgent than having an exotic wine and chocolate tasting party? After this, offer a variety of small dishes that the girls can mix and match and ensure that they are fun! This is not the occasion to be stressing about calories. Choose some food that will make you feel good and go from there.

After this, it wouldnt hurt to do the bride-to-be up a little. Choose a motif and run with it: maybe the horny little devil or the naughty nurse. Give the hen in question a cap and outfit that plays out her role really well and let the present opening commence!

A word on presents. All of your practical gifts will be handed out during the wedding, so it is important to make your gifts as embarrassing and cheeky as you can during the Hens Night party. Everything from gag massagers to risky lingerie is all fair game for a not so decent gift. For added fun coordinate with the other hens concerning what theme youre going with.

Some good gift ideas include, but should not be limited to, handcuffs, lingerie, massage oils, scented lubricants, candles and all sorts of other items that can make the night after the wedding as interesting as the night before.

The Hen Night doesnt have to be boring or uncomfortable for anyone, provided the mood is right and the guests are playful. Dont be afraid to experiment with what you want. Remember, have fun, be daring and never forget the goal of the night is to have fun!

The heat of summer might be nice for kids to splash in the pool, but it can wreak havoc on your garden roses if you don`t know how to keep them nice and fresh. Looking after your flowers means they`ll be around year after year and you`ll be able to enjoy fresh cut flowers indoors or blooming ones outside.

1. Fertilize. Using the right fertilizer is key, look for one formulated for roses. Also, be sure not to fertilize after August 15th or your roses will bloom too late in the season and be killed by the early frosts.

2. Prune. Do your pruning early in the season to allow for more blooms throughout the summer months. Snipping old flower heads and leaving five leaves below is the best way to do this. Pruning will cause the bush to grow quickly over the summer months.

3. Water. In the heat of summer, your roses will need more water than usual. A heavy watering in the morning is excellent and a light misting at night will help keep those flowers dewy fresh. Never water during the day, when droplets can concentrate the sunlight and cause the leaves and flowers to burn.

4. Soil. Having the right soil will allow the water to reach the roots of your bushes and will draw the roots down. This is why a heavy watering is good, it establishes a deep root system which means the roses will be drawing water even when the top layer of soil is dry. Look for soft, loamy soil mixed with a bit of sand for drainage.

5. Planting. To ensure that your new roses have the best chance at surviving summer, dig a 12 inch hole and fill it with compost and bonemeal. It`s a good idea to loosen the soil at the bottom of the hole, as well, to encourage deep roots.

6. Light. The majority of roses love sunlight and are quite happy with direct sunlight for 6 or so hours a day. However, it`s important to note that there are some hybrids that need shade, so check with your nursery to be sure you are planting your roses in the right place.

7. Spacing. Roses need room to breathe, so don`t crowd them into your flower bed. Allow for plenty of room for air to circulate around them and they will stay cooler and fresher during even the hottest parts of the day.

8. Spray. Unfortunately, all that warm weather is great for pests, too, so you`ll probably need to spray your roses with a repellant of some sort (home made or commercial) to keep these hungry critters at bay.

9. Mulch. Pile a little mulch around the base of your roses to hold in water and keep the roots cool. This is a very simple task that can be done throughout the summer as the mulch is dispersed.

10. Hose. Using the right hose is important. You want one that is flexible enough you can snake it between plants and water the roots.

Roses aren`t as finicky as many people think, especially these days, but they do need some special care for those hot summer months. Taking the care needed to keep the plants fresh and cool will result in healthier roses and fresher blooms throughout the summer, so you can enjoy your flowers all year long. Healthy roses during the summer can provide a myriad of opportunities. It really isn't that difficult to look after roses if you follow the ten tips given above.
