Suncatchers for windows make perfect stocking stuffers or decorations. Hang Snowflake Suncatchers in a sunny window, and watch in amazement as rainbows dance around the room. You could even use our Axicon Suncatcher and Crystal Suncatcher as Christmas tree ornaments that can be repurposed as everyday decorations when the holidays are over.

3. Holographic Stickers & Magnets

Whether you’re looking for cool New Year's Eve party favors or a little something special to slip into Christmas cards, you can’t go wrong with stickers and magnets!

In addition to our stock stickers, we can print custom stickers and custom magnets that you can give out as Christmas party favors at your company’s holiday party. Not only do we offer professional printing services, but we’re also holography experts. Create stunning holographic stickers and holographic magnets that pop with iridescent colors.

4. Rainbow Window Film

Like suncatchers, Rainbow Window Film can be used to decorate your windows for the party. This magical film takes the same concept (turning sunlight into rainbows) but makes it bigger! You can cover your entire windows with it to create an enchanting wonderland that’ll make for an unforgettable holiday celebration.

These Christmas party favors also make wonderful gifts for anyone who appreciates the beauty of rainbows. Bundle our Rainbow Window Film with a few of our Rainbow Decals so they have a complete rainbow-making kit!

5. Suncatcher Silhouettes

Suncatcher Silhouettes make fantastic Christmas or New Year's Eve party favors because they are small, easy to hand out, and simple for guests to use at home. Each decal can be placed on a sunny window to create rainbow light effects and a shadow outline based on its shape.

Designs like stars, hearts, flowers, butterflies, and fairies give hosts options that can fit different party themes, guest ages, or gift bags. Because they are made in-house in Los Angeles from leftover suncatcher material, they also offer a lower-waste alternative to disposable party favors.

6. Rainbow F/X Lights
