Did fall sneak up on everyone, or is that just us? Halloween is right around the corner, which means it’s time to start thinking of your costume and unique Halloween party ideas! From personalized party accessories to quick snack recipes, we’ve got you covered with these tips. Whatever your Halloween plans may be, we’ll help you make sure it’s a scary good time.
Candy Buffet
Too old for trick or treating? We don’t think so, but if your Halloween plans involve entertaining at home, our first unique Halloween party idea is to have a candy buffet! This is a great way to keep the tradition alive without going door to door. For this idea, simply take the concept of a regular buffet but skip straight to dessert! We know this sounds ultra-indulgent, but Halloween is all about more is more when it comes to junk food. Make sure to go all-out with the decor for maximum festivity, and don’t forget the cute napkins!
You can customize napkins from scratch with our FYP Customizer. Upload your own art or photography to make this personalized party accessory a memorable detail at your candy buffet. Of course if you need inspiration, feel free to browse our custom photo napkin gallery. Personalized napkins are a unique Halloween party idea that will set your event apart.

DIY Marshmallow Snacks
Everybody loves marshmallows! The easiest (and prettiest!) snacks can start with a simple marshmallow. Best of all, this showstopper snack comes together in minutes, so it is the perfect Halloween dish to make when you are short on time. Dress up your marshmallows by dipping or drizzling with chocolate, coating them in sprinkles, or incorporating seasonal Halloween-themed puffs!
Tie your snack together by arranging them on a skewer or our personalized stir sticks PS: These are totally a great addition to your Halloween Candy Buffet. Have we convinced you yet?
