Party Favors On A Budget
By Natalie Glass
Did you know you can give away celebrity-style party
favors on a budget? Rumor has it that Paris Hilton liked
to give out cell phones at her birthday parties. You
can give your guests cell phones for as low as $10;
see www.hop-on.com
and www.ebay.com
for more details.
Cigar kits are another favorite addition to lavish
adult party favor bags. While cigar kits can cost upwards
of $100, you can find a low-cost alternative by looking
for the cigar box, which can be bought on Amazon for
under $20.
Adding A Touch Of Class With Miniature Bottles
Bottles of expensive champagne were doled out at many
a Hollywood shindig, but for your party, miniature bottles
of fine liqueurs (purchased for $2-$3 each) will add
a touch of class. If you have a sophisticated, conservative
crowd, then consider books from second-hand stores for
a memorable adult party favor.
Some of the most popular birthday party favors are
edible. At www.beau-coup.com,
these tasty party favors include personalized Hershey’s
chocolate bars, custom fortune cookies, personalized
cookies, two-tier mini cakes, sparkling cider mini bottles,
and brownie pops and mints in decorative tins.
Making Your Own Edible Party Treats
As you’re probably well aware, you don’t have to buy
your treats at Beau Coup or a bakery. With a good recipe,
the right tools and decorative packaging, you can assemble
your own edible birthday party treats yourself! You
can buy Wilton mini cake pans at www.amazon.com
for $15.50 and snag a recipe off www.countryliving.com
and away you go!
Another increasingly popular idea is to put your favorite
drink mix into a package and send it home with your
guests, whether it is cocktails for an adult party or
hot cocoa and lemonade for kids’ parties.
Gourmet cupcake mixes, muffin mixes and brownie mixes
can also be done up in this fashion. Remember, the packaging
matters for these gifts, so be sure to use personalized
favors to make your statement.

Many offices decide to throw theme parties now because
it makes decorating and party favors so much easier
to select. Many adults have fun dressing up in costume
or participating in themed activities.

It is the party favors. Great favors and invitations
