The Floral Notes are some of my favorite pieces. The colored prints just stand out so much. I wish I had them all!

April showers bring some nasty weather, judging from this past weekend, Henry !

Dianne, I don’t care for floral patterns, myself, I like the simplicity of monograms.

Totally true, Hannah! Where I live we haven’t been getting much rain this month, until this past weekend. Then the rain started making up for lost time! Normally I like rain but not when it turns to thunder and lightning.

One of the nice things about this season is that the flowers start to come out when the rain lets up. I’m checking out some of these floral notes designs and finding some great ones I haven’t seen before. I really like the Cherry Blossom notes, although the Damask Fashion notes are even prettier to me. Those might be my favorite of the floral styles.

In the realm of personalized cards, here is my advice: Keep it simple. “Going floral” is a bit much, whether it’s in clothing, furniture or stationery !

I don’t mind the occasional floral design, but as a general rule I’d agree with Hannah. Floral patterns all over my personalized notes are a bit too much for me. Still, I do have to admit it looks better on personalized notes than it does on furniture.

Flowers aren’t one of my favorite things, but I will admit that some of the floral notes have pretty cool designs. I especially think the monochrome ones like Sakura notes, Blossom notes, or Damask notes are stylish and cool. Are those available in eco-friendly versions? It would only make sense to have “green” versions of the floral designs after all.

I know it’s cheesy to say so, but like the blog title says, the products that GiftsIn24 offers are truly “one of a kind.” That’s why I keep coming back to this site time and again whenever I need more of the great products offered here.

Flowers became very popular in the Victorian era. Sending people messages based on language of flowers has grown in popularity and grows as the weather gets warmer. During the period there was “a standard list of flowers that had secret meanings. it was the perfect way of sending messages that few could interpret that were tied up in natures bow. A bouquet of lemon blossoms meant that someone was promising you ‘fidelity and faithfulness,” expressing love for you. The ironic thing about it is that over the centuries the meanings and age old traditions have translated into modern paganism. I am surprised by this discovery. I have always thought flowers were a part of natures treasure trove to be appreciated, shared and enjoyed. There are quite a few of your spring favorites that have been labeled with deeper meanings throughout history Agacia ; secret love, Apple Blossom; good fortunes, Carnations: pure love and devotion and the Daisy: innocence. Get the perfect flower to match your perfect Floral Note.

Floral Cards and Notes made of premium paper are sent with special thoughts. Individual voices and messages arrive on gossamer wings. Get the right message this spring with Classic Personalized Notes and Cards. Pink Scroll Delicate, Orange Daisy Delicate, Cherry Blossom, Sakura, Damask, California Classic Frame Monograms, Flourish, Galena, Caprice, Notable, Green Botanical and Napoli Notes.

I still need to see The Hunger Games. I’ve heard a lot of good things about it but I haven’t gotten to the theaters yet. If I don’t catch it soon I might have to wait until the DVD comes out.

The movie I’m really waiting for though is The Avengers. I’ve enjoyed most of the movies that have been leading up to this, especially the first Iron Man film and Captain America. Even Thor wasn’t bad I guess. I still haven’t seen the Incredible Hulk, but everyone tells me it’s pretty good (as long as you don’t watch the other Hulk movie that was made a few years before it).

It’s interesting that the previous blog talked about personalized notepads and books, while this one talks about notepads and films. I suppose if you like to write down your thoughts about books, it makes just as much sense to do so with the movies you see as well.

Jeff, The Hunger Games was a really good movie, you should see it in theaters while you can. I’m about to check out the books on recommendation from a friend – I’m told the first two are great but the third is a bit of a letdown. I guess I’ll know for sure soon enough.

One of the great things about The Hunger Games is how well it contrasts with the Twilight films in how it presents the female lead. Katniss is everything Bella is not: a strong character with her own personality and motivations. And above all, Katniss is interesting, which is more than I could say for any of the characters in Twilight.

Sorry, I don’t mean to sidetrack the discussion here, but a lot of people are making the comparison, and I think it’s a valid one since both series are in the public eye at the moment.

Anyway, leaving aside the movies for a bit, Henry has a point that keeping track of things with personalized notepads is very easy and convenient as well. I’ve started ordering a new style whenever I run low on notepads, just to mix things up with the variety. And I run through notepads pretty quickly with all the things I need to keep track of throughout the day.

Good movie. Maybe not as good as people have been saying, but it’s kind of a slow year for movies so far so I can see why it’s so popular.

Like I mentioned on the previous blog, I used to write about my reactions to the books I read, until I stopped because of all the time it was taking up (not to mention the paper and ink costs). I’ve been thinking I could start up again if I kept my summaries short, since I tended to go into a lot of detail just recapping what I read. If I do that and it works out, I could do the same thing for movies as well. I do love writing on my personalized notepads, and I did kind of used to enjoy writing down my thoughts like that. Maybe I’ll try it and see how it goes.

I wasn’t really a fan of the Hunger Games books so I have passed on going to see the movie. But I would agree that ordering some personalized pads is a great way to keep a list. I really enjoy the desk slab because you can get them with lines printed on them. This makes it very easy to put together a list.

I can’t make heads or tails of it either. I’m thinking there is a growing number of kids who haven’t seen it yet or some of them along with other fans are taking others to see it for the fist time after they saw it during the first few weeks.. Then there are people who are being referred by word of mouth, memo responses and popular opinion. Have you ever written anything inspiring about the film, do you have any thoughts or opinions film helped draw to the forefront.

Katniss Everdeen now has her own Wikipedia page. She is the main character in the book the Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. She dorsn’t have a Memo Pad named after her but if I was gonna pick a Memo Pad out of the crowd that matched her personality I’d choose the Jolly Memo Squares because they stand out from the rest. They are “pleasant gleeful, sheets to offer notices, friendly reminders, short happy thoughts and messages of every kind. they have a unique kind of style, just like Katniss’ name that is derived from an edible plant. Katniss is played by the actress Jennifer Lawrence in the movie. You’re probably jotting down as much Hunger Games trivia as you can. District 12 is a coal mining district. Hunger games is the first installment in a three part series, trilogy. Katniss becomes a symbol for a rebellion in the book and first installment. I’m afraid you’ll have to read on and take good notes as to where the plot is going and who it affects.

I don’t know about you but I haven’t curled up with a really good book lately. It is one thing most Americans make time for, more so than: gardening, cooking, swimming, camping, walking and exercising. It’s the one thing you can do without anyone else, without traveling and without changing your attire or dragging another person or group of people along for the ride. Reading is the one thing you always want to get your kids interested in early. Most people are introduced to books and stories by their parents. No matter how you slice it, jot it down on this Memo Pad, Agenda, or Apple Memo Square. Reading is one of the first things that got you to really think through and let inspire you. It created visions of other places, realities, scenarios and other times that made you believe in other people’s visions and thus enabled you to have visions of your own that you’d surely reach for. Whether it’s one great story or many, we have 86 Best Selling Notepads for you or your child to help keep track of. A sheet from one of our pads works great as a book marker, one book at a time.

Have you checked the New York Times Best Seller List lately?

Lover Reborn sits at the top, part 10 of the Black Dagger Brotherhood series. Guilty Wives by James Patterson is number two. It’s the story of friends on vacation in Monte Carlo who find themselves in jail. Betrayal is another installment by Danielle Steel with a Hollywood director looking to uncover an embezzler. Stay Close by Harlan Coben reconnects three frustrated people in Atlantic City. Elegy for Eddie by Jacqueline Winspear rounds out the top five with the discovery of a London fruit seller’s murder that yields national ramifications. Our Best Selling Personalized Notepads help you keep in tune with the times and on the edge of each page. Do you have your favorite Anthony Memo Squares, Apple Memo Squares, Desk Slabs or Carnival Tablets ready for the next list, next meeting, next session next moment alone……

I’m a pretty prolific reader, so much so that when my local library announced they were closing for remodeling this month I panicked and thought “oh no, what will I do when I finish the books I have out right now?”

I used to write down my thoughts about every book I read, starting with a brief summary of the book and moving into whether I liked it and why, but I eventually gave that up when I realized it was taking me hours to write these things down on my personalized notepads. That’s a LOT of paper and ink I was using. I tried doing it on the computer instead, but it still took awhile so I eventually just gave up writing my literary experiences.

Notepads are a great way to keep track of thoughts and order in your life. If you start with your thoughts quite a few things should flow there in.

I’m always using my various personalized notepads in almost every room of the house. I have one on my bedside table, one hanging on my refrigerator, one by the phone, even one in the bathroom. I even keep a personalized notepad in the car, which gets used as often as any of the others.

I do like to read, but I feel like I don’t get as much reading done as I would like. Sometimes it takes me a few months to get through a book because I only find time to read a few pages at a time every couple of days.

Personalized notepads have two great uses when it comes to books you’re currently reading and enjoying that I haven’t seen mentioned here yet.

I like to read books with complicated, interwoven plots and lots of characters each doing their own things and pursuing their own goals. That’s why A Game of Thrones is one of my favorite books, which I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone who likes to read (as long as they don’t mind not always getting a happy ending). The only problem is, when you have a lot of things going on at once it can sometimes be hard to keep track of who’s who, what they’re up to, who’s betraying who, and so on. That’s why I keep a notepad next to me while I read, so I can jot down important characters’ names along with a brief description of who they are and what they’re doing. It helps me keep all those characters straight.

And also, when you have to stop reading for a bit you can tear off the sheet you’ve just been writing on and use it as a bookmark!

Hobbies are our national past times. They’ve gone way beyond are fascination with baseball, hot dogs, apple pie and Chevrolet. We watch more television. We try to spend more time with family and friends or at the movies. We sometimes are so wrapped up in what’s happening on television or the media that what happens in our daily lives pales in comparison. You might want to jot down the other top ten hobbies from the list. If you don’t feel like they’re valid you can replace them. Use your Apple Memo Squares or Adams Agenda sets to get to the real deal. Whether you did spend more time reading, watching TV, going to the movies, enjoying family time, fishing, computing or whatever they are all national hobbies that rank high on everyone’s lists of favorites, where do they fit on your Family List or favorite Distinctive 7 Sets. While you’re pondering those choices here’s America’s list of top five TV Shows for last week, do they meet with your approval? American Idol April 21, Modern Family, American Idol April 22, Two and a Half Men and Voice in that order. Is everything you expected it would be?

Will we try to watch more Dancing With the Stars or American Idol. Will you read more about actual dances, where to take lessons and who to take lessons with and even what to wear while you are trying to put on your best performance or watch someone else trying to put on theirs. As Americans we generally don’t quibble about what’s at the top of the list? We generally don’t quibble over how we rank things. We realize something comes in at number one, two and three and often we encounter gracious losers and winners, one in the same. If you are in front of your TV and you want to tally your votes for any of the reality shows on the charts: The Voice, Dancing With The Stars or American Idol dole out sheets from anyone of our 89 Best Selling Notepads. They make great anonymous ballots. They are also great for listing and organizing ways to enjoy your free time. Sometimes we find if we are not scribbling or jotting down on our Family and Friends Tablets, Anthony Memo Squares, Family Arch Memos and Magnet Mates, what the best things we can do with our free time, important issues, dates to remember, names to remember and agendas to keep in order can become. Life is like that sometimes, one page in a memo pad after the other. What are a few of your favorite things?

“Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens. Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens. Brown paper packages tied up with strings.These are a few of my favorite things! ”

I can safely say I’ve never heard of Lover’s Day before. What does this so-called holiday bring to the table that Valentine’s Day or Sweetest Day doesn’t? It seems redundant to me.

Any excuse to give a romantic personalized note to that special someone is good, I suppose. Not that you should need a special occasion to give a wonderful gift to your significant other, or take them out to dinner, of course.

Lover’s Day is a new one on me. There’s no Wikipedia page for it so maybe it’s not that widespread yet.

A quick Google search seems to suggest it was created as a non-commercialized alternative to Valentine’s Day. I’m sure that won’t last long, especially since here we are talking about things you can buy for your special someone on Lover’s Day.

I guess if you’re going to go ahead and commercialize it, might as well buy the best, right? Besides, you can still give your personalized notes that individual, special touch that so many gifts are lacking by writing the most heartfelt message you can think of. I guess as far as Lover’s Day gifts go, that’s probably the best idea.

I think it’s something that a wedding planner or advertiser created in April when they saw so many people getting married and engaged in April. It was a natural dvelopment that a day to honor a surge of smitten couples would come to fruition. It surely initiates even those who are entertaining the idea in early spring and to take some initiative for an engagement party or setting the date for a forth coming wedding. It’s supposed to give ” shy and timid people” a little incentive ” to express their love,” take a leap.. If you don’t plan your wedding on the date you can seriously contemplate it and perhaps plan an engagement party, another intimate encounter if nothing else will do. We have a 110 Best Selling Personalized Napkins that will be just, right for whatever you’d like to celebrate. You’ll have to order the Domaine Chandon or Dom Perignon from someone else.

I don’t think Lover’s Day went over as it big as it should have. I mean it could be as big as Valentine’s Day for those hopeless romantics or those people looking for love in all the wrong places and maybe suddenly coming to the realization that they’ve been going about it the wrong way or maybe even a day to try again if you still feel you can make use of wings and they have not been singed or caught in too many closing doors. It’s crazy but the world often throws you lemons and your answer for that should be to make lemonade. It wouldn’t be quite the same answer or the best answer for everyone. The thing that you’ll focus on is not being limited by past actions, mistakes, bad experiences and bad karma. It is not wrong to want to be loved or need someone in your life, to share your life with someone or have someone share their life with you. You should be aware even before you send a passionate Personalized Card or Note, seasoned with a bit of satire or set off with a joke that you’re reaching out to the right person. Sometimes your not 100% sure unless you get a response.

Send the right mesage with our Classic Cards and Notes They’re made of premium paper that you can embelliesh with special thoughts,an individual voice and a “one of a kind” messages to fly on gossamer wings. ” Take a little time a little time to think things over.” Write a message that best expresses your hopes, your point, the grand connection you share. This spring take the classic approach with Classic Personalized Notes and Cards like Watermarks, Classic Monograms, Bordered, Classic Frame Monograms, California Classic Frame Monograms, Flourish, Damask, Caprice, Notable and Our Large Monogram Notes. Classic Cards and Notes are perfect ways to introduce yourself in personal or business relationships.

Spring in Full Swing

12th April 2012, by Henry Springs

You’d think that people would have had enough of silly love songs, but what about monogram napkins too? As spring returns and we find ourselves in the height of wedding, anniversary, birthday, graduation and prom season and Monograms do remain or our mind. As in reflections of the way entertaining used to be or in a lot of cases what they are elevated today. Monograms were huge for last year. I saw them on tiaras, glasses, cake toppers, cake knife servers and luggage tags.

This year, embellish the occasion with your favorite Monogrammed Napkins and Guest Towel Napkins. They can accompany your favorite drinks, appetizers and desserts for your reception or spring celebration made in heaven. You’ll see that the Foil Stamped Napkins and Guest Towels add a spark of color to your spring celebration, whether that is anniversaries, birthdays and/or graduations. Light up your buffets and table settings with a signature Monogram of your own. It creates a unique environment for guests. Celebrate food, folks, and the brightest moments of the year in Personalized Monogram.

My sister has bought personalized-party-napkins here for all of her parties and she says the same thing as Latrelle: Giftsin24 is the BEST producer of monogrammed and other forms of personalized-napkins.

I have ordered foil stamped napkins from Giftsin24.com for my work parties for the last several years now. We usually order the custom logo napkins. These work great with our company logo and give some flare to our party.

I agree Latrelle16 top notch quality of products! Since we’re being honest…I do wish that the website search feature worked a bit better- sometimes it takes a few tries to find what I was looking for. Other than that, I’ve been impressed with the stationery I’ve received.

Paulette Leto

ColeenN., I have to agree with that. Sometimes I will look for a specific product by name after seeing it mentioned in the blog, and other things will get pulled up. The search function could definitely use some work.

But the products themselves, from personalized stationery to monogrammed napkins or anything else I’ve looked for, have all been top notch. No problems there whatsoever.

I haven’t had problems with quality, but I have dealt with other personalized-napkins companies who delivered late: which was a big problem. Giftsin24 delivers BEFORE you expect them to !

It’s true, GiftsIn24 always delivers unbelievably quickly, and always for a great price too. In the past I’ve organized parties only to remember a week or so before that I had no more personalized napkins left. GiftsIn24 always comes to the rescue, getting my order shipped to me right away without breaking the bank. I’d never go anywhere else for personalized stationery, napkins, or anything else I can buy from this site.

Giftsin24 was slow in their shipments this week, though. I ordered on Monday and they didn’t ship my order until Thursday.

Things happen. I know I waited all week for a package that was sent from some place else and it didn’t come. The ironic thing about it another package showed up delivered by none other than Federal Express. Some times it’s not exactly when you make the order but when the shipper gets the information. if you make an order late on Monday and for some odd reason it’s not received by the shipping agent until Tuesday morning than there is your explanation. I am going to order some business cards today or tomorrow. I’ll have to get back to you later on concerning when they arrive. It’s not like we make promises we couldn’t keep. Hope everything else works out with the shipment. If you have anymore comments, just call in. Remember this forum is here for you.

I love the rain. But I love the aftermath even more. A rainbow, sun rays streaking through the clouds, even the birds now chirping again. It just makes me sit back and enjoy live that much more. I keep a notepad by me most of the day just in case I get any random inspiration to jot down a good saying or idea.. Maybe even a doodle drawing. If I ever see this happening I will write down the view for sure.

A quick 5-star review: My wedding is at the end of May. I bought 400 personalized wedding reception napkins from Giftsin24 last week. The were the napkins with the Elise monogram. I received them on Monday of this week and they are wonderful — great detail in the monogram with sharp, precise foil stamping. Thank you to everyone at Giftsin24.

Stress Awareness

10th April 2012, by Henry Springs

A lesser known fact about this month of April is that it’s “Stress Awareness Month”. Have you thought about new ways of relieving stress in your life? What do you do to break the tension? Perhaps give some personal advice on the Health Resources Network about the dangerous levels of stress that you and I face every day. Or just simply talk to some close friends about what you do to keep down your stress and where you’d like to see yourself in the next 6 months. Stay competitive to push new idea on each other and take the step to becoming stress free. If you haven’t got your favorite personalized stationery gift yet, it’s about time to! They are invaluable when it comes to jotting down important things you need to remember. Our Personalized Notes are a great way to inform someone near you to “eliminate their suffering”. You can try any of our 86 Best Selling Notepads, Memos or Tablets to accompany your new found joy in relieving stress for yourself and others. By taking the information and passing it along with a hello, a reminder, a date or a request you may be helping in more ways than you realize.

Of course you don’t need an excuse like “Stress Awareness Month” to send someone a nice reminder of how much you mean to them. Most people feel the same. Personalized Notes mentioning ”Stress Awareness” Month will ‘strike a note’ so to speak. It’s already twenty-years-old. If someone needs to find new alternatives or discover options for stress relief, your idea will surely get them to address and search out options. You may find someone in the midst of planning a wedding, birthday or barbecue, and a Personalized Note from you might come along at just the right time. Expressing concern and keeping channels of communications going is the only way some of us remain connected. Sometimes we call, sometimes we don’t. A Notable note can give folks incentive to respond, call or even meet you. What a difference a Personalized Note makes.

Ways to relieve stress… how about reading a friendly letter on personalized stationery? If this is Stress Awareness Month (which I’ve never heard of until now) then it seems like a good excuse to give some friendly, funny letters to my friends that they can read and reread when the stress starts getting them down.

Working out or rigorous light exercise is a great way of relieving stress but the funny thing about it is with so many things going on in your life a lot of people find it difficult to take time out for exercise or even time to think and reflect. All it takes is a little more time, time to complete a rhyme, time to stop and change your direction. Then again those people who never have time for exercising seldom have time to tap creativity that comes from changing their perspective, going backwards and forwards, changing from fast to slow, from hectic to a gently flowing stride, eventually from overworked to evenly managed. Our Personalized Tablets, Agendas, Memo Squares, Lists, Desk Slabs and more are small tools to help you lead a less stressful life. With a little assistance you too will come to realize how the power of scheduling, planning and keeping your eyes on the prize even if it is a small goal like exercise will be one of the most obtainable goals you could have. Even if the only goal for yourself is to make the most of an exercise routine or enjoy quality time with family and friends we have the perfect Notepad to lead you to where you want to go.

Take a little more time to increase the quality of your message and manage the moments of your life. Mandate the order of your words, agenda, thoughts all the other great things that make up the quality of your life. Personalized Notepads lend focus to your run of the mill every day life. Make time for everything. Write directions, lists, thoughts, ideas, messages across the board, old friends and new friends. Create lots of ways to make time for everything from exercise to a coffee. We offer 151 Personalized Notepads: Agendas, Memos, Squares, Tablets, Slabs, and Squares. Take them everywhere you go to help you keep focused on any agenda, focus on how you can improve your life.

I order the Bordered Cards here from Giftsin24.com. I previously ordered from another company that charged a lot more for them. But I took a chance on Giftsin24.com and was very satisfied with the quality. The cards are very thick and the borders are beautiful. The price at Giftsin24.com is very inexpensive compared to other companies for a great quality item.

For Classic Card designs, I think nothing beats the Cambridge Correspondence Card. It’s got that classic-looking flourish to the first letter and the whole thing just looks amazing. There are lots of other cool designs of course, but the Cambridge design really screams classic to me.

Today is a classic early spring day. The sun is shining in a cloudless blue sky and if you’re on your way to work you may be dreaming about what you’ll do when you have a free moment later in the day. You may be skimming through today’s paper or your favorite magazine on your way to work or during ten minutes of free time. A great time to have a personalized Notepad in hand to jot down points, names and classic ways to take advantage of the spring weather. I don’t think there is a classic way of approaching people or a way of that will solve every solution. Different circumstances require different approaches and different correspondence but there are always classic ways of sending, invitations, introducing yourself and saying I love you. When you want to take a moment
to truly make someone feel or the moment feel special you’ll send a Classic Card because it’s so simple and so easy.

Consider our Classic Cards and Notes, the choice is yours? Traditional Monogram, Estate, Glory Cards, Banner, Bordered, Colonial, Cambridge Correspondence and Bishop Studio Cards are simple, recognizable gestures of style to add heat to any spring romance. Use the Classics to Say I love you, I miss you or I’ve been thinking of you. Our Classic Cards and Notes engage people to build bridges, create new encounters and let old friends know you’ve been thinking of them. Let someone know they’re special. Send them warm thoughts and wishes, love, gratitude, and congratulations with a Classic Personalized Card or Note. Let our Classic Cards and Notes celebrate the most significant people in your life. Remember in the spring we plant seeds that can blossom into so many things that will be worth more later. Let our Classic Cards and Notes bring your life’s experiences to life.

I’ve ordered the Reno Cards and from what I can tell they are the same as the Vegas Cards. Based on the answer I received from the Instant Chat with customer service they changed the name to Reno Cards due to some slight changes in border colors offered in this set. But I agree that this is a great deal for the price.

5 Tips for a Successful Staycation

8th April 2012, by Tara Scalzo

Now that we’re in the midst of spring break, with summer break right around the corner, it’s time to start thinking of engaging activities to do with the kids. And with the price of gas being around $4.00 per gallon or higher, a lot of people are choosing to stay close to home. The word ‘Staycation’ is being used more and more often. In this economy, gone are the days of flying off to an exotic location for an elaborate vacation.

As a parent, there are a few ways to keep our kids minds and bodies active while on break to avoid hearing the 3 most dreaded words – “mom, I’m bored.”

1. Build a garden ~ Not only is this good exercise, but it’s a great way to teach your kids the joy of watching a tiny seed they plant turn into a bounty of fruits and vegetables. Nothing is better than eating something grown in your own backyard.

2. Take a bike ride ~ Explore areas of your neighborhood you can’t see in the car by taking a long bike ride on a nature trail. Pack a basket of full of food for an impromptu picnic when you decide to stop and rest. Sometimes a change of scenery, away from the TV and play station, my be inspiration they need.

3. Teach them to cook ~ If you enjoy cooking or baking, teach the kids the fulfillment that comes in the process of preparing delicious meals every one will enjoy. Not only is this rewarding for them, but great bonding time as well.

4. Explore city museums ~ If you live in the suburbs, a trip to the city is a real treat. Museums are a great way to spend the day exploring something new while being educational at the same time. Between the science museum, planetarium, art museum and the aquarium, there is enough to see and do for weeks on end.

5. Enroll them in a college course~ Most community colleges offer summer courses for kids 13 years and younger, in subjects ranging from art and film making to science and mathematics. This is not only the perfect opportunity keep their minds sharp but perhaps the chance to take a unique course that may not be offered at their regular school.

So with a little thought and preparation, Staycations can be a fun and rewarding experience for everyone!

All of these are great ideas. I particularly like the idea of enrolling them in courses offered at the local college. When I was 11 or 12, I took a couple week-long classes at the local community college over the summer. One involved working with clay, and the other class (which was much cooler I thought) was in magic, as in tricks taught by a real stage magician. Since the class was only a week long we didn’t get into anything super-advanced, but if you’ve ever seen a magician cut a rope in half and then put it back together, I learned how to do that.

The secret (stop reading here if you don’t want to know) is that you have another loop in the end of the rope, which you hide in your palm. When you make the loop in the middle of the rope where you’re going to cut, you secretly switch it out with the loop you’ve got hidden so that, when you cut the rope, you’re actually snipping an inch or two off the end, not cutting it right in the middle. Then (keeping the original loop hidden the whole time) you tie the two ends you’ve gut together in a knot, and flourish the rope as you prepare to remove the knot and reveal a completely restored rope. You can make some kind of joke about how the knot’s not where it’s supposed to be, then slide it to the middle of the rope (hopefully to gasps and applause) before removing it entirely and revealing a completely restored rope (minus the knot made up of the last inch or two you cut off).

So, moral of the story: you can find some pretty cool classes offered at the local college, and not all of them have to be boring academic stuff. It really is a great place to take your kids that’s not too far from home.

Bike rides are a great idea. I’ve started trying to make short trips on my bike instead of in my car. Not only does it save gas, but it’s good exercise too, and the weather has been pretty nice lately so it’s pretty enjoyable.

I’d like to sit outside and write some letters, but it’s been a bit windy lately. I’m afraid if I go out on my porch to write a letter, the wind might snatch my personalized stationery away and it will get ruined. So I’m looking forward to the weather calming down a bit more before I’m willing to write a letter outside.

Paulette,

I take short walks or long walks when I can. Early spring weather was just beautiful for a while just perfect for walking. I see kids some time who still skate board. I thought that was something that reached its hey day in the 70s. You know when kids skated around the block on roller skate and skate boards, sometimes in the streets. I’ve seen people travel with skate boards on trains as if they are going to events but in all actuality they’re just headed for parks or the beac front. I live in Illinois near Chicago. They don’t have any skateboarding competition here, out door or indoor. At least none I’ve never seen.

It’s funny I’m never contemplating these scenes when I need some reslly unique descriptions or settings. It would be nice if I did need them then I’d know a way of stimulating my creativity. I carry My Family Pads, Lists and Executive Tablets with me wherever I go. There are about 157 Personalized Notepads all together and you can make the most of them by picking your favorites as you choose. They’d definitely come in handy on bike rides when writing down things to remember, things that make an impression on you. You know like places, people and things. Whether or not you need to get something from the store the Personalized Notepads are alway there to give you an accurate account: Anthony Memos, Apple Memo Squares, Carnival Tablets and more.

‘Tis That Time Once Again

7th April 2012, by Tara Scalzo

Spring is that wonderful time of year when the weather gets warmer, nature begins to bloom all around us, and best of all – the end of the school year is right around the corner. After 9 long months, both kids and parents are ready to take a break from early mornings, nightly homework, PTA meetings and bad cafeteria food.

April is the perfect month to order special gifts for teachers and grads that will make an impression and finish off this much-anticipated time of year in style. Teachers will appreciate personalized notepads, cards, memo notes and stationery gift sets, to replenish their much-exhausted supply of paper. Plus it’s a great way for a student to show their favorite teachers how thankful they are for everything they’ve done throughout the year.

Nothing says ‘welcome to the adult world’ for the graduates in our lives like custom printed note cards, stationery sets and calling cards. They will take pride in sending out beautiful paper that not only reflects their personality, but also will set them apart from any other. Plus it’s a great way for them to keep in touch with classmates once college starts. Calling cards are an impressive way to make their mark with professors and other distinguished academic faculty they may meet.

No matter what you choose to gift, you can’t go wrong with personalized stationery.

Simple. Unique. Striking. Perfect.

Share and Enjoy:

” Remember yesterday, walking hand in hand Love letters in the sand, I remember you.” Through sleepless nights and endless days, I remember you.” Many of this years graduates are still running around, finishing the last few things on their agendas, preparing for the last go round. If they don’t have their Personalized Notepads to remind them of upcoming events, people to see, things to buy and moments not to cry it is certainly an item you can put on their Personalized Stationery Gift List. They have not made it to those points where they are reflecting on the people, lives and moments that they all will share and perhaps may never come again but they will soon contemplate that moment. When they do they probably will try to consider those defining moments. Moments no doubt that wil become to be known as the times of their lives. throughout life we evaluate where we are at, reflect on where we have been and look to the horizon for where we are going. Throughout life’s journey the people that we connect with, we call friends, those we work with, we’re related to and those who have affected our lives and vice versa. A gift of Personalized Stationery will go far in keeping everything in order.

Yes, graduation is creeping up on us again. It’s that time of year when college and highschool graduates will be reflecting on the last four years that may have become the times of their lives. Regardless of where all the people they have met and the connections they’ve made and of course how one link in a chain can lead to another you will probabably want your young graduate to focus on all the special moments and special things that ed to their unique experience of school and life that for some can be great memories and connections that built character during their high school or college experience.

“To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.” Regardless you’re always interconnecting and taking up space with other people no matter what they do.

That’s a pretty good idea I hadn’t thought of. After nine months of grading assignments, trying to keep students in line and well-behaved, teachers will be ready for a break for sure. And it seems like a thankless job, since many parents tend to blame teachers when their kids get bad grades, rather than the kids themselves. Undoubtedly the gift of a stationery gift set or a personalized notepad like the Apple Memo Square with Crystal Clear holder would do some good and remind teachers that they are indeed appreciated for the hard work they do in educating our children.

As usual, there are some great ideas here on this blog. Teachers and grads both could use some personalized stationery as gifts, and there are some wonderful gift sets available for the purpose. If I knew any recent graduates this year I might give them the Graduation Stationery Set 1, since that looks like a great gift. I never gave a gift to a favorite teacher, but if I were still a student I might do so since that seems like a great way to show appreciation for all that you’ve learned from them.

Personalized stationery pads make great gifts for graduates, even if you don’t get one of the special graduate-themed gift sets. I have a nephew who will be heading to college this fall, and I plan on giving him some personalized stationery to celebrate his high school graduation which is coming up soon. I just need to decide whether it will be one of the Graduate Stationery sets, or one of the other personalized stationery pads.
