2011 has come and gone. It’s time to get ready for a new year. A New year means a fresh start. A chance to make some new resolutions and change things up.

No matter if 2011 was a good or bad year you have a chance to make 2012 whatever you want it to be.  Have you made a 2012 New Year’s Resolution? Do you plan on keeping it this year?

I have been thinking a lot about New Year’s resolutions and It’s important to make a resolution that you can keep. For me something like giving up chocolate would be impossible, so I tend to stay away from that.

Try to make resolutions you can keep for example:

1. Plan to eat healthier

2. Exercise more

3. Work on being the best person you can be

For me these are more realistic resolutions. And why do you have to just choose one. I try and make a few. It helps if you write them down on a personalized notepad tablet or list. Keep your resolutions listed by your desk or at home in your kitchen. Somewhere you will see them and be reminded of them.

Use that new personalized stationery you got this season. Make it a resolution to communicate and write to your friends and family more. Send a handwritten note just because.

Or, make a resolution to learn something new. If that is your resolution you have come to the right place. Our Giftsin24.com personalized stationery blog has a wide variety of topics and information about personalized stationery. Get tips and tricks on how to write cards and notes and get great stationery deals!

It’s New Years Day, time to start making those New Year’s Resolutions !

Have you been watching  holiday movies on TV this year?

Have you seen any sort of theme? I have noticed while watching the hallmark channel and movies like the Grinch that stole Christmas all of these movies have a similar holiday theme. It’s a simple reminder that is sometimes hard to keep in mind, but an important message.

The holidays are about family, getting together and spending time with one another.

Whether you are religious or not everyone from Giftsin24.com wants to wish you and your family a nice holiday.

We hope you are able to spend the day at home and with the ones you love. Wishing kindness in your hearts, food on your plate and a roof over your head.

Yes, gifts are nice, but more importantly let’s enjoy our friends and family, the non materialistic things in our life this year.

Many people do hope for more than presents at Christmas and New Year’s gatherings. We want to somehow return to a time in our childhood, when life was simpler and made more sense, before the troubles of adult life arrived. We feel sure that behind all the fun and decorations, there must somehow be a message, something more, some key to life, hope and happiness.

So can we look beyond the way Christmas is celebrated today, and find any real meaning, any message for our lives today?

From our family to yours. We  hope you had a very Merry Christmas and have a happy New Year!

Remember to order your thank you cards. Choose from our great selection of personalized embossed and monogrammed thank you notes. Tell your family how thankful you are today!

What a nice Holiday I had! I really enjoyed that Christmas fell on the weekend this year. I was fortunate enough to be able to spend the holidays with my family on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. The weather was beautiful and warm; we didn’t get any snow, so that made traveling quick and easy.

Christmas Eve morning was spent with my Dad, step-mom and youngest brother. We had brunch at their house and played a few holiday games. In the evening we traveled to my husband’s cousin’s house for Christmas carols and a nice dinner. Late Christmas Eve night we arrived home to enjoy some time alone and with our dogs.

Christmas day we got up early and went over to my in-laws house. My mother in law made a delicious new pecan French toast recipe. We opened our traditional party poppers and exchanged a few gifts. After cleaning up my husband and I headed over to my mom’s house were we saw my brothers and my cousins. We had a nice traditional Christmas ham dinner. The men moved to the couch to watch the Chicago Bears Play football and the women played a trivia game.

Everyone loved their personalized notes and notepad gifts. And everyone noticed the personalized gift enclosure cads. This year I went with the monogrammed gift enclosures on ivory paper. They were beautiful and we got lots of compliments. I even have a few personalized cards left over that we plan on using this New Year on our gift favors.

Wishing you a Happy New Year 2012 !
