There
are lots of great dates to throw a killer party, and the addition
of party favors can add some fun to the celebrations. Here are
some party favor ideas for some holidays that are a little bit
out of the traditional.
St.
Patrick’s Day: It hasn’t received National Holiday
recognition yet, but there is a great tradition of celebrating
St. Patrick’s Day in North America. It’s been almost
three months since anyone last threw a holiday party, so this
might account for some of the festivity that surrounds the day.
Arm bands in green and white with a shamrock on them make for
a great wearable party favor for the Irish holiday, and of course
you can fit shamrock designs in anywhere you like. Shamrock
boxes filled with candies, shamrock candles, even small shamrock
figures will add some extra luck to your St. Patrick’s
Day party.
Cinco
de Mayo: Cinco de Mayo is making its way north in terms of party
celebrations. Americans have begun to adopt the holiday more
for the flashiness of the event than anything else (It originated
in Mexico as a celebration of the country’s defeat of the
French in 1862). For Cinco de Mayo party favors, it’s all
about adding that Latin flavor. Maracas are a great inclusion,
colorfully decorated and fun to use. Try to find or make your
own sombreros as candy holders.
Sports
Events: Major sporting events make for a great excuse to throw
a party, and the addition of chocolate
party favors is a fun and often humorous way to liven up
the room. Super Bowl party-throwers should look into mini-helmets
and footballs as a fun way to liven up the conversation. The
World Series offers similar party favor accessories, look into
mini team mugs and, of course, baseballs are cheaper by the
dozen. The ubiquitous bobbleheads are also widely available
and not too expensive, they can make for a great conversation
piece and fun party favors.
Whatever
the occasion, even if they are not considered to be national
holidays yet, throwing a party is a great way to let off some
steam and relax with your friends. Party favors always liven
up an event and give people something to remember the party
by.
