Fall has officially hit, meaning bonfires, hoodies, apple cider, and holidays are inbound! It’s my favorite time of year and I honestly couldn’t be more excited for all of the festivities in store for these next few months.
Holidays mean that get togethers with family and friends are practically inevitable, and almost every family and group of friends likes to celebrate and spend time together hanging around, chatting about life, and eating delicious home-cooked food. Heck, even get togethers with classmates or coworkers usually end up in dinner parties, too. This time of year brings everyone together, no matter what capacity you know each other in.
As you begin to prepare for hosting such dinners, though, you’re probably thinking of ways to make it a bit more inviting, unique, and fun. Try picking up a few small candy boxes for your guests in their seats with their favorite treats. Here are a few ideas on getting started with the upcoming holidays and events.
You can decorate small boxes with pumpkins, bats, spiders, cobwebs, and other Halloween icons. Don’t forget all the black and orange (and even dark purples) needed to make sure people know it’s Halloween, because those are the only colors you’ll be seeing for the next month.
A lot of folks like to get together with their family and friends around this weekend in November because the food is always incredible, the vibes in the air are intoxicating, and more holiday festivities lie on the horizon. Football is big around this time of year, meaning a lot of people may be going to a home game or simply watching the slate of NFL games on TV. Decorate your candy boxes with some turkeys, fall harvest decor, and more to celebrate the autumn and harvest season.
These are the most festive holidays of the three, considering color has no limits, everyone goes all out with their holiday trees, and gift wrapping is incredibly popular for boxes. Because of this, we suggest picking out a unique wrapping paper and encasing your guests’ boxes with whatever suits your style. Including a cute little name tag as if it were a holiday gift is an even nicer little touch.
The whole point of these boxes is to personalize each to your the interests of your guests and the theme of the evening, whether it’s seasonal, a holiday, or a special event. Have fun in whatever it is you end up making. That’s the whole point!
