There are three types of party accessories. You've got the stuff people wear, the decorations at the party and the take-home gifts. Each one is a valuable part of the party, without the dcor its just like you've invited friends over for dinner, which is nice but often not what you'd intended. Similarly without the accessories for guests to wear they may not feel part of the atmosphere, just feel like observers in a festive environment. Lastly, the take home gifts give the party goers something to remember the event by, be it a trinket or some candies.

Accessories for your guests come in many shapes and sizes. There are silly hats, noisemakers, masks and jewelry amongst other things. Depending on the type of party you're having you may want a specific type of accessory. You can add instant Hawaiian atmosphere by greeting guests at the door with Leis or hand out beaded necklaces and masks at a Mardi Gras party.

Dcor is what makes the party and there are all kinds of decoration, garlands, streamers, balloons, confetti and did I already say balloons? Anyway the dcor gives the place a festive atmosphere and brightens people's moods on entering a room. You want to choose the right type of accessory to decorate your party, garland for Christmas and confetti on New Year's.

Party favors as said will give your guests something material to help them remember the party, for as long as you desire. If you wish you can give them candies which will last about a day or so and you can say you ended the party with something sweet. Or you can handout items that hang from the car's rear view mirror, so every time they get in the car they'll remember where they got that pair of fuzzy dice.
