Default Halloween party koozies

Every year we decorate halloween koozies to use for the party and let the guest take them home as party favors. The last two years we bought the foam koozies and decorated them with paint, glitter, plastic spiders, etc., using clever halloween sayings or quotes from horror movies. By the end of the evening the paint had worn off, or whatever was hot glued on had fallen off. This year we bought the collapsible koozies, printed up pictures and sayings from the printer, and put them on iron-on transfer paper. Then we got the iron out and went to town ironing on all the pictures that we had printed up. I must say that they look like they were professionally done at a fraction of the cost. I found the collapsible koozies online and at a very reasonable price, just .60 a piece. Here's the link: Blank Collapsible Koozie/Can Holder - NO MINIMUMS! You can also order the iron-on transfers from HP.com. I bought three packs, but they gave me one for free, and took only two days to receive by mail. Attached are some pics of some of the koozies we did.

I like those, you could even personalize them.

Those are very cute. I especially like the one " don't scare me.I poop easily."
I think I need that in a tee shirt. LOL
( no, I don't poop easily.) But it is funny.
That is a great idea deannbanana ! And they do look very professional! Your guest will love them this year !

Those are very cool. And are a unique gift. Maybe it's my perverted side, but I like the "Save a broom, ride a witch." Too funny!

Oh...I have alot more where that one came from I just didn't picture them. In all, we have made about 60 koozies. Don't know if that will be enough for all the guests, but it will have to do. Here are some other sayings we added on the koozies: Witches Gone Wild, Wanna see my monster, Screw the candy just give me beer, Bite me. This link will take you to where I got alot of my ideas http://http://www.cafepress.com/teewit4grownups/3664713

Those are great and what a good idea to have them as party favors too! Very creative.

What a great idea! I wonder if you could buy pre-printed iron-ons and then do them. My printer is down, and for some reason it won't print in color anyway, but I'd love to do this. I'll have to look for pre-made transfers.

Yours turned out really great and I bet there gonna be a big hit at your party. Thanks for sharing and the pics!

I did find some pre-printed iron-ons but they all came in larger sizes, for t-shirts. I haven't been able to find any that were smaller to be printed on koozies. Oriental trading has some pre-printed halloween koozies for 8.99 a dozen or you can get them personalized for 19.99. Here's the linkOriental Trading Company
