With over 250 skus being refreshed during this update, we understand that it takes time to add these newly designed products to your websites.

Although we will be refreshing our classic designs, our Vintage, Chalkboard, Mod Party, and many lines will remain unchanged. This update only affects some of our oldest skus which were due for reengineering.

Spring Themed Favors

Hello Blossomers!

Still have customers looking for last minute Spring party favors? Look no further because we’ve got a whole category dedicated to Spring Themed events. Many inspiring and creative bloggers, such as Lindy from Dandy Lion, believe Spring is the season when people brighten up by getting out of their homes and into to the sun. Lindy shares ways to make a Spring event special, including personalizing favors and incorporating flowers in all focus pieces of your event.

If your customers would like to offer their guests bright and fresh Spring favors, suggest our popular Mason Jar Drinking Glasses with Flower Cut Lids. Guests can add a striped or chevron straw to these favors for cocktail hour or fill them up with fresh fruit.

Another popular item you can suggest to your customers are our “Please Be Seeded” Seed Packet Place Cards & our “Plant With Love” Seed Packet Favors. Both items include seeds guests can take home and plant to remember the newly bloomed love. The place cards can even double as party favors.

Customers looking to show off bright, colorful Spring flowers, offer our Flower Favor Boxes. These favor boxes can be filled with treats, mints, or even flower seeds. We offer seven different bright flower color options.

All these Spring Themed Favors can be personalized with stylish labels including icons specific to your customer’s event, color and pattern options, and their names or a special message.

Our Tip of the day is an easy, inexpensive project you can share with your customers in need of beautiful center pieces or customers looking for crafty décor for their homes. Pink Pistachio shows us how to transform ordinary glass bottles into bright vases for all your Spring blooms. Check out this Spring project and more on our Pinterest board Spring Themed Parties.

Mother’s Day Gift Ideas

Welcome back to The Blossomer!

Now that we are in the month of May, there is plenty to celebrate including Mother’s Day. According to Block Talk on HRBlock.com, $14.6 billion dollars are spent on Mother’s Day for about 85,400,000 Moms.  Thankfully, we’ve got favors that will help your customers show their Mothers how appreciative they are.

A great small gesture you can offer your customers is making their Mother’s favorite baked goods and presenting them in our Mini Cookie Jars. Add baked goods or candies to these jars and adorn with decorative embellishments such as ribbon or twine, which are both sold separately for an added touch of personality.

For customers looking to give their Mothers multiple, small gifts, suggest our Sweet Shoppe Candy Boxes. These boxes can be filled with sweet treats or pampering goodies, such as nail polishes, nail filers, or our Hand Cream.

For those customers looking to have these favors at their Mother’s Day event, they have the option of including a stylish personalized label sharing a special message or leaving them blank to add their own creative touch.

Our Tuesday Tip today is a gift idea that any Mother is sure to appreciate. We found a fresh Lemon Mint Sugar Scrub by Keri from ShakenTogetherLife.com. Her bright scrub will relax and rejuvenate and fits in 3 of our 4 oz Mason Jars.

Find Keri’s Lemon Mint Sugar Scrub & other creative mason jar projects on our Mason Jars Pinterest board.

Mod Party Kit Stationery Trends Magazine Feature ~ Spring 2014

Hello Blossomers!

We are so thrilled to have our items featured once again by our friends at Stationery Trends Magazine. Our Mod Party Collection is highlighted in a two page spread in Stationery Trends’ National Stationery Show issue, which will be distributed to everyone attending this year’s show in New York City. Specifically, our Pink Circus Party theme kit is featured in the article.



Our Head Designer, Heather Swanson, is interviewed in the article and talks about the struggle she had finding party favors and decorations that matched the jungle theme for her son’s birthday. She was inspired to create a collection full of different themes to make it easier on party planners to find coordinating supplies. Heather also gives insight to how the Mod Party Collection was developed and designed. When asked how she would recommend these kits be promoted and merchandised at retail, Heather advised, “We recommend clients keep Starter Kits in stock. These are pre-packed kits to get a party started and dress up a food or dessert table. They include cupcake wrappers and toppers, a welcome sign, striped straws, and tent cards. Most customers are happy with just the items in the kit, plus it’s offered at a discount rate over buying things individually. The customer who wants to get fancy can order (coordinated) personalized items.”

Thanks again to Stationery Trends Magazine for producing such a lovely feature on our Mod Party Collection.
