The best advice we ever heard from Ted on Queer Eye was to get inexpensive wine glasses from Ikea instead of paper or plastic cups. It doesn't cost that much more -- in fact, over time it's actually less expensive -- and it's about a million times nicer to sip from glass than plastic. Not to mention the carbon footprint you're reducing by skipping the red keg cups.

A quick spin around Ikea reveals additional party supplies that are as affordable as disposable items, but give your party a more festive, grown up feel. From plates to cutlery to our favorite paper napkins, some of Ikea's best buys in the gallery.

Have you ever been at a party when some dude says, "Hey baby, wanna get in the hot tub?" You can normally turn him down with the standard excuse -- "Sorry, I didn't bring a bathing suit." You're off the hook, unless you plan on getting nekkid with him, in which case you're probably not looking for an excuse.

Well, that might not be the case anymore. Disposable swimwear is now available for just ten bucks a pop, so what's to keep creepy jacuzzi guys from pulling one out and luring you into his skanky steamy whirlpool? You know, other than your morals ...



All joking aside, this is actually a pretty cool product. If you have a beach house or pool, you'd be pretty smart to keep a few of these around for guests. Each suit lasts one to four wears (I would hate to be wearing it when it stops working, though), and the styles aren't too bad. Your guests don't have to worry about who wore a borrowed suit last, or whether it was washed sufficiently, and you look like a fabulous host! Or, a creepy hot tub guy ... whatever.
