As part of the 80th Academy Awards ceremony celebrations on Sunday, the non-celebrity types out there may want to hold their own, perhaps less elaborate, Oscars party.

According to website sheknows.com, although non-A-list bashes may not involve the thousand dollar champagne, free cosmetic surgery or crying award winners, there are a number of fun party ideas to be had.

By taking pictures with a digital camera as guests arrive, each attendee can be presented with polaroids or a digital photo at the end of the night.

Decorating the room with movie posters and other associated film memorabilia is also a good tip from the portal, adding that designing stars with guests names on to resemble the Hollywood walk of fame might also be good fun.

While the ceremony is screened, guests could be invited to vote the best and worst-dressed celebrities of the night, it continued.

GBK Productions Oscar Gift Suite is giving award nominees the chance to take advantage of a number of free gifts and treatments in honour of the event.

Stars will be recipients of a digital photo frame and a laptop among other freebies.
