Family Pride Stationery

While we can all acknowledge that the Internet is a great tool for connecting with people, our role at Giftsin24 is to help our customers make family talk more personal—and more fun. When communication is more fun, there will be more of it. Personalized Family Stationery is one way to make that happen.

Our custom stationery will keep the communication flowing. That’s because we have something perfect for everyone in the family. Even better, we work with you to add that special touch of customization to make each note card, paper list, custom notepad, and imprinted napkin your very own.

Today, children are using computers from a very early age. Most adults claim at least some time in front of a PC or mobile device every day. Even plenty of grandparents have joined the digital age. The primary form of communication is electronic, but stop to think how email messages and texting actually make you feel. Is there something missing?

A handwritten note is a joy to receive. Everyone will love the feel of our triple-thick cardstock and premier papers. They are simply a pleasure to write on, and make the best foundation for requesting a favor, or reminding someone of where they need to be.

Nearly all of our creative gifts can be customized with your family name or monogram. Many of our stationery sets have enough room for every family member’s name. For example, the Carnival Family Pride List is paired with our CrystalClear acrylic holder. Every family member’s name marches boldly along the notepad’s border. It makes a handy tool for keeping a grocery list going, or jotting down a few things to take to school the next day.

Encourage your children to keep in touch with their grandparents and long-distance friends with a set of personalized cards. Our perennial favorite, the Anthony Family Pride card, can be customized so that everyone can use it to write a thank you note, extend an invitation, or just say hello.

Pearl Iridescent Monogrammed Napkins Are The New Top Seller, Reports Giftsin24

AURORA, IL — After 40 years in the personalized stationery and monogramming industry, the folks at Giftsin24 have seen their fair share of trends — the newest of which they report is the Color Mist embossed napkin.

After the recent introduction of the pearl iridescent Color Mist monogrammed napkins in late 2010, the collection quickly became the company’s best selling personalized party napkins.

Giftsin24 created Color Mist Napkins with a revolutionary new technique of color embossing. The iridescent monogramming is available in nine pastel colors, four of which have a pearl gloss and five have a matte “tint” finish. Shimmery embossing colors of vanilla pearl, bloom pearl, seafoam pearl, moonbeam pearl, and bloom pearl bring a rich look to an otherwise plain napkin.

The napkin itself is available in 27 different traditional and exciting colors such as white, ivory, gray, gold, sage, burgundy, red, terracotta, orange, yellow, mimosa, pistachio, citrus, emerald, hunter, teal, navy, true blue, bright blue, Bermuda blue, pastel blue, purple, lilac, lavender, magenta, candy pink, and classic pink. While Giftsin24 offers suggestions for color pairing, party planners can choose any combination of napkin and embossing colors to enhance their event design.

“Our new Color Mist Napkins are truly beautiful and make an elegant statement of taste at events and special occasions,” said Dustin Baker of Giftsin24.com. “Our customers say their guests want to take them home as a keepsake!”

The exclusive Color Mist collection of personalized wedding napkins and party napkins are only available through Giftsin24.com.

The Story of Aunt Mim (Part Two)

The very next day after the party, I found myself staring at this pack of personalized stationery. It was the first time I’d ever gotten such a thing, even from my parents,  and while it seemed a hokey and old-fashioned way to do…well, anything, I found myself admiring it, especially the way my monograph was displayed so prominently.

Almost with a chuckle, I pulled out one of the (admittedly) very nice thank-you cards and began to write. It was a short, simple, to-the-point message (“thanks, Bob” I think it was) but I had to admit, it looked pretty nice. Even with bad handwriting and a cheap ball-point pen, it was a touch of class for a simple gesture. This was especially striking as, being a guy, I wasn’t used to writing thank you notes. Hand-writing them even less so.

I used up the whole lot of them in one morning (there were exactly enough, of course) and I had sent them out in the mail. But instead of a thank-you card, I’d made sure to write Aunty Mim a letter. The stationery she’d chosen was beautiful and I felt it was proper I express my gratitude with it. I used up a whole sheet; it wasn’t just a personalized note, it was a heartfelt expression of gratitude for her presence throughout my young life.

A day or so later, I began getting phone calls from my friends (actually most of the time, it was their mothers…we were teenage boys after all) who went on and on about how nice it was to receive a personalized thank you and how no one ever seemed to really do that anymore and how it was really very classy. I’ll admit, I felt more pride than embarrassment. I even started to get personalized thank you cards from friends whose graduation parties I’d gone to (even Bob)!

Aunt Mim, of course, had written me back, on her own personalized stationery. Amongst the little marks indicating where I’d either misspelled or committed a grammatical error (she’d been a schoolteacher, back in the day) were little suggestions on how to prepare myself for true adulthood.

…and always remember, young man, the letter ended, nothing stands out about a gentleman that his own personal touch. Little acts that speak to the character of the individual who performs them.

I smiled. I’d always remember. And heading off to university would help me do so.

Eco-friendly Stationery

The greening of education!

Heard the entire hullabaloo about pollution and its adversity? It’s a hot topic since a few years. Naturally, if the common man is experiencing the tribulations, he’s bound to get restless. But how much is it affecting? People just talk and then forget about the current issue on pollution. It isn’t their fault. There are not many ways to curb the problems since we are all at the mercy of the sci-fi encroachments. But, just by being conscious about the immediate repercussions around us will make no difference. We have to find ways to waste management before situation gets unmanageable.

‘Go Green’- save Mother Earth! If you have options to replace synthetics with biodegradable materials, implement. Implement, so that you set an example for your spawn that’s constantly imitating your actions. Introduce Eco-friendly stationery items to your children; contribute towards restoring balance in nature. Manufacturers from India and around the world come up with new, innovative, Eco-friendly stationery items. They are believed to be very artistic and beautiful. Many of them look simply trendy. Eco-centric stationery products certainly grab the attention of toddlers, grown up kids as well as adults.

The first time you introduce your pre-school child to the world of education – educate him to love and care for Mother Nature. Lay Eco-friendly pencils in his hands. These pencils are pretty much in demand today. They look marvelous and convey concern for the environment. Such writing instruments are usually made of surplus timber pieces or scrap wood, renewable plantation wood, reprocessed cardboard, recycled paper or recycled synthetics and non-toxic polymer with natural fillers. Moreover, lead is replaced with graphite, thus, making the pencils absolutely safe for the children to use. However, ‘green pencils’ made out of recycled paper are most appropriate to use. The process of manufacturing ‘greenciles’ can curb the concern of deforestation.

Writing can be fun! The makers of stationery very well know the dynamics of attracting the toddler and the young clan. So that children opt for environment-friendly pencils and leave behind the ordinary ones, the producers offer pencils that emit fragrance. They are popularly known as ‘smencils’. Sniffing fragrance of your choice teamed up with writing can be really interesting, amusing. Smencils are infused with Eco-centric fragrant liquids that further contribute in saving the planet. These scented pencils are usually made out of recycled newspapers and they sharpen just like the usual wood pencil.

The pen gourmet does not need to feel a run down. Scents are not limited to pencils only. Scented pens too, are in fashion. Scented pens are instilled with natural or artificial scents. However, the naturally scented pens are non-toxic, Eco-friendly. Scented pens are available in a variety of fragrances to charm the pen-users. Flowery scents, flavored aromas, fruity whiffs and so on. Innovations truly, have no end. ‘Aroma-writes scented pens’ depict flowery scents whenever you write. Now these varied scents produce soothing aromas that are good for your senses-they offer aromatherapy in a pen! Eco-friendly scented pens are indeed, one of the newest features available amongst writing instruments.

Happy Painting! The Eco-friendly stationery furore goes a long way. It’s not just about pens and pencils. ‘Back to school’ supply producers from around the world have Eco-centric options for art materials too. Eco-colors are very safe for toddlers and small kids. Plus, these colors do justice to our planet. Eco-friendly color pencils finger and face paints, organic paints, color crayons made of soybean and beeswax and walnut oil paints are few of the many assortment art supplies that can replace the conventional art tools. When you want to clean your paint brushes, think Eco-centric again. Because you still have an environ-friendly option – the extra mild citrus thinner that substitutes other corrosive options. Keep the planet green while you paint it with rainbow!

Paper- Safeguards Nature! Feel close to nature with handcrafted paper. The variety is innumerable, fascinating and so ethnic. In fact, manufacturing handmade paper is native to India, by and large. And now a day such crafted papers are gaining significance especially amongst people who have the knowledge about Eco-friendly stationery and also the lovers of art. Moreover, the entrepreneurs too are creating awareness about consumption of Eco-centric goods instead of products that destroy the balance in nature.

It is interesting to learn that paper can be made out of many other plant resources leaving behind the virgin trees. One of the methods of making handmade paper is cooking of jute and cotton waste, then beaten, refined, bleached and then hand-painted. Handmade papers are made out of numerous other raw materials such as kenaf -a fibrous plant related to cotton and okra, silk, flowers’ petals, husk, grass, bagasse (dried straw), wool, banana, banana fiber, hemp and rice. Think of the appearance when handmade paper can be made from such colorful raw materials! Handmade papers are gaining momentum because of its beautiful outcome after the production and this factor alone is drawing attention of a lot of Eco-fanatics around the world.

Nearly half the trees presently produced are used to make paper! How about exploiting elephant dung instead of cutting down virgin trees? There is no necessity of worrying about the dung supplies. Elephants defecate 16 times a day! Their diet is fibrous and their digestive system is not so great and they pooh about 500 pounds a day. The paper made out of elephant dung or muck is made of about 75% elephant feces and 25% recycled rice paddy, colored with non-toxic soil dyes instead of bleaches or chemical additives. The best part is, this paper does not stink at all plus it can be recycled and composted.

Innovative handcrafted papers can be used for craftwork at school, wrapping purposes. The notebooks and scrapbooks too can be handmade. The decorative Eco-friendly papers are often ornamented with peepul leaves; motifs of pressed flowers, etc. that simply bring out the magnetism that the handcrafted papers spill. Children can use this vintage papery for making crafts, origami, greeting cards, wraps and covers of books. Thus, their world of arts and crafts will be colorful and Eco-friendly.

Eco-centric papers, especially recycled ones are now a day commonly used for making notebooks, textbooks & binders. Manufacturers in India and around the world are also creating consciousness and distributing earth-friendly books.

Eco-friendly stationery, especially handmade paper faces one drawback. Since the production includes much more skill and artistry than the usual papermaking technique, the cost of the end result is a little higher than the regular ones. This pinches the pockets of the users and, handmade paper seems to be more of an expensive stationery item. But depletion of forests is a matter of concern and in midst of this critical phase, handmade paper and stationery prove to be blissful.

Ingenious ideas! Ever given a thought about Eco-friendly pen-cases? Pen cases are made of recycled car tyres to avoid using wood of virgin trees or PVC. These pen cases are ideal for school, home or office requirements. Attractive colored prints on the black surface make it look more pleasing. The car tyres that otherwise end up on landfills, are used here for handy pretty pouches large enough and smart enough to carry to school or to the office. Mouse mats too can be made out of recycled car tyres. A remark such as “I used to be a car tyre” on the pouch or the mouse-mat, further signifies environment-friendly implications.

Going back to the ancient times, glues were prepared at home- the famous flour and water solution. But as science evolved, natural substances were replaced with synthetic adhesives. However, it’s our earnest responsibility to get back the lost equilibrium in the nature by contributing as much as we can. If we can now restore synthetic adhesives with 100% vegan glues that do not contain animal or synthetic sources. Bio-adhesives bond as much as any other non-Eco-friendly adhesives do. Eco-erasers made of 100 % rubber have also replaced synthetic erasers.

Stapling the Eco-friendly way! An Eco-stapler is the newest of earth-friendly stationery supplies. A pocketsize wonder, this stapler clips up to 5 pages by cutting and folding action while you clip. It is helpful for fastening cheques to payment slips besides using at home, school and office. With Eco-stapler you never run out of staples because its staple-less and you save a lot of metal going waste.

Eco-electronics! The era has begun where natural substitutes took the place of artificial options. Water powered clocks and calculators can be used at home, school and office-they are non-messy for children’s study room or their desktop. These aqua-electronics do not require electricity or batteries, just tap water to function.

You can’t expect your child to study all through the day. Give them toys that are earth-friendly so that you imbibe the habit of using recyclable products in them forever. Toys that are made out of recyclable materials, and work on solar power are the best way to keep away from contaminating environment. For instance, sports balls are made of sustainable sourced latex that does not harm the ecosystem.

Eco-savvy trading! With forests dwindling and that we live under threat, every contribution helps. Renewable products are gaining momentum recently. However, the sector of recycling scrap and making handicrafts is scattered, unorganized in India and not many people know about the uses of Eco-friendly and recycled products. Moreover, the small-scale industries are the players, which lead to lack of complete publicity amongst the end-users.

Nevertheless, handcrafted articles are much in fashion today. Probably there’s a limit to facing an artificial atmosphere for a prolonged time. Lately, handmade articles are creating a huge impact on people, especially for their articulate designs, beauty and freshness. Plus, after so much chaos about cutting down of trees, people try contributing to restoring natural environment. Such a modest act has become more of a trend. So the producers can see a ray of light in regards to growing in this sector.

Why Birth Announcements Should Be Sent

Author: John Madlock

If having a baby is a completely new adventure for you, then the thoughts of whether or not birth announcements should be sent out has probably crossed your mind more than once. This significant note sent through the mail to your family and friends is one that marks a brand new life brought into the world – one that you are completely responsible for, so why wouldn’t you want to share your newfound pride and joy with those special people in your life? Believe me, they will be thrilled to receive such a personalized memento of your joyous occasion, and they’re probably anticipating its arrival already ! Not to worry, as sending out birth announcements is one of the easiest parts of parenthood, you just need to be set in the right direction!

Your birth announcement of choice should reflect both the personality and originality of your newest (and cutest) family member. Sure, you could try to create and print them out yourself on your computer in between the diapers, bottles and amazing amount of laundry that such a little person makes, but do you really have the time or energy to get the job done right? After all, a birth announcement is you showing off your child to the world- this is important!

Choosing your birth announcements should be fun, so be sure to work with a company that also believes this- you’ll have enough headaches in the coming years and this shouldn’t be one of them. Anyhow, parents-to-be can pick out the basics of their announcement ahead of time. For example, if you know the gender of the child before birth, you can pick out a color and design or pattern, leaving the “unknown technicalities” such as weight, length, date and time until after the long-awaited day arrives!

Which brings us to our next topic- the information that should be printed on your birth announcement! Of course, the new child’s full name (middle names are very important), parents names (and mother’s maiden name, if married, to help recipients with a bit of memory loss). The birth date and time, as well as the weight and length/height of the baby at birth are each essential pieces of information in which your addressee will be looking forward to receiving!

A good quality birth announcement company is able to fill your order within a week or so, but a great quality birth announcement company will have your order ready to ship within a few days! Besides complimentary “RUSH” service and attention to detail that you (and your new baby) deserve, your company of choice should offer a wide assortment of other coordinated and related products to make your life a bit easier. For example, the ability to order birth announcements with coordinating imprinted envelopes and matching thank-you cards should not be as difficult as going through labor!

Make the Party Extra-special With Customized Table- and Party-ware

Make the Party Extra-special With Customized Table- and Party-ware

Author: Shawn Thomas

Whether you are planning a small party with a few friends or a large dinner for a family reunion, few things can have more of an impact on how people view the party than having a coordinated theme. Instead of having a generic theme linking your next party together, however, consider using customized table-ware and party-ware to make the reason for the party its own theme.

Your guests will remember the party for quite some time to come, since it will seem like something that only a professional party planner might come up with even though you were able to do it yourself at a relatively small cost.

To start things off right, consider buying personalized invitations to your party so that your guests will be impressed right from the beginning. Using scroll anniversary invitations with delicate black and white scroll work can really make a good impression when celebrating a wedding anniversary, while golf retirement invitations can help put people in the mood for a relaxed party celebrating a golfer’s retirement. You can even find personalized Mardi Gras invitations and invites for other holidays and celebrations for those times when you are just having a fun get-together with friends to have fun on certain holidays.

Once your guests arrive, customized party-ware can quickly turn an ordinary gathering into an extraordinary one. Personalized coasters announcing the reason for the celebration can not only get attention but can also serve as a keepsake that everyone will want to take home. Holiday coasters with seasonal designs can even be created in no time if the party is planned during the holiday season. To take things one step further, you might even consider buying personalized tumblers that are printed with a custom message and design in colors befitting the celebration. This will help to ensure that every drink that your guests have reminds them of exactly how much was put into making sure that they enjoy the party.

Customization options for your party do not stop at coasters and tumblers, of course; you can easily complete the set of custom accessories by choosing personalized napkins with the event and date printed on them. Depending on your needs you can choose textured beverage napkins and guest towels, colorful party napkins, or even holiday greetings napkins that are all complete with the personalized details that you choose. Many personalized party supply stores will even give you the option of designing your own napkins with unique logos and text if their supplies do not quite meet your needs.

If your party is going to include a proper dinner, you might also consider using personalized placemats to really set your gathering apart. Placemats are usually available with designs ready for a number of occasions, including everything from autumn hues to bright floral patterns and a number of holiday designs. Neutral designs such as celebration stripes are also available, letting your personalized placemats have a splash of color without ties to any particular event or season. Coordinate the colors in the placemats that you choose with those used in the other personalized party decorations that you get and you will have a strong theme that still has the specific reason for the party at its core.

Take the time to see whether you can find several personalized items together in an ensemble package. This can save you both time and money as you will only have to place a single personalization order while receiving a discount for ordering a package. You will often be able to find several themed ensemble packages to choose from, giving you options for everything from a bountiful harvest ensemble featuring varied earth-tones to a ghost party ensemble to help you celebrate Halloween with a few cheerful ghouls and goblins. Each piece of the group packages will feature the personalization that you choose, making sure that they properly convey the message that you are trying to get across.

Your guests will definitely be talking about your party the next day after you take the time to personalize it, which is the greatest compliment that any party planner can receive. Even though having personalized table-ware and party-ware will not take much effort on your part, it will really set aside your celebration from others that your guests have been to and cause them to have a better time in the process. The professional-looking extra touches will really help them to get into a celebratory mood, and you will have the satisfaction of knowing that the little bit of time that you spent in planning the personalization will be appreciated by each and every person in attendance. Don’t be surprised if your guests come to you the next time that they plan on throwing a party, looking for advice on how to make it as much of a success as yours.

By creating a monogram design and placing it on your napkins, guests will be in awe of your excellent taste. It will make people feel like they’re at a five-star restaurant or an exquisite hotel. Of course, the monogram towels aren’t included.

Before you can actually purchase your own customized monogram napkins, you first have to design the monogram. It may seem like a lot of work, but it’s easier than it sounds. With the help of Microsoft Word or PowerPoint, you can create a graphical monogram to your liking.

It’ll turn out even better if you have access and the ability to use software such as Adobe Illustrator. You can also ask an artistically inclined friend to help you with your creative vision. And if all else fails, you can pick and choose from the wide selection of designs that a store is sure to have.

Once you have completed your design, all that’s left is to send it to someone who can add your monogram to napkins. This would involve seeking out a wedding accessories store or an equivalent of sorts. You can do this by looking around malls or asking any of your friends if they know of such places. The internet is also a good place to shop around if you can find a discount.

So, what kind of monogram napkins can you expect to find? Well, they are only limited by design, either your own or the place you’re buying them from. Napkins come in a variety of colors and shapes. If those standard white square napkins don’t match your theme, you can look for a blue napkin with a rectangular shape. The options are endless, so don’t be afraid to experiment with the right look.

Being personalized items, monogram napkins don’t come cheap. You’re looking at an average of $25 per 100 napkins. Yes, it’s a small price to pay for that extra feeling of elegance and class. It’s not too steep though, especially if you handled your money carefully. There is usually a price drop if you order more napkins.

Don’t leave out any details on the next social event you plan to host. If you want to impress your guests with minimal effort, try adding a personalized touch to your napkins. A simple monogram design can go a long way.
