Hanukkah Party Planning, Ideas & Supplies >> We love the idea of setting a table with interesting blue dinnerware so much we posted it on Instagram(Image credit: One Kings Lane )
Hanukkah is just a a few weeks away so it is definitely time to start thinking about ordering your Chanukah cards, Hanukkah gifts, Hanukkah party supplies and party favors, and even your celebratory wine.
Hanukkah is early this year! In 2018 Hanukkah is celebrated Sunday December 2nd – December 10th
Sometime we get so caught up in tradition we forget to create new ones. If Halloween is your favorite holiday, consider sending Halloween photo cards to your friends and family. It is a great way to stay in touch and to share those special moments. Plus, if your photos are anything at all like these, they are way #toocute not to share. Continue Reading →
With the falling temperatures and changing of the leaves, it is time to get ready for the upcoming holiday frenzy! We know most of you do not start ordering your holiday cards until after Halloween, but you are beginning to explore your options. These days there are so many great holiday cards available, the question is where to begin, including what to do about your holiday card envelopes.
Here is our best advice.
First choose which pictures you would like to include in your holiday card design.
Next go to Tiny Prints or Minted and use their insert photo(s) option. This option is the best innovation in the world of holiday cards since the whole photo holiday card craze began because you will be able to tell immediately which cards work and which ones do not. This limits your options and makes choosing a design so much easier.
Next you will need to decide whether you want to spend the extra for custom shapes and upgraded paper. We say, go for it but then again we save all of your cards, year in and year out, so we place value on all the little details.
And finally, you will need to decide how you want your envelope to work. Yes, this is a fairly new twist to invitations and stationery and it is one we are obsessed with. As you know, we are all about first impressions. Invitations have always set the tone of a party and now even before your guest open your invitations, or in this case, holiday cards, you are using formerly unused space to send your messages of joy and peace and laughter, visually.
As we pulled onto our street after an afternoon at the movies – our last family activity over a very busy and fun-filled Thanksgiving weekend, all five of us let us a universal aah!
While we were gone, most of the homes on our street had put up their Christmas trees, hung their Christmas lights and had turned them on for the first time this holiday season. Tonight there was proof all around us that the weeks between Thanksgiving and New Years is without a doubt the Most Wonderful Time of the Year.
And for two days only starting today, Cyber Monday, you can wish family, friends, and colleagues the happiest season of all with festive holiday cards for a fraction of the cost.
Just use the promo code CB12 when you checkout to get this great deal.
If you have used Tiny Prints before, you know how incredibly awesome they are. If you have not, you are missing out on the best custom cards, invitations, and gifts. Their site is super easy to use and you can customize everything. You write your own text, upload pictures, and make everything uniquely you!
There will never be a better time to buy from Tiny Prints and this sale ends tomorrow at midnight Pacific Time, so check them out today.
The next few weeks might as well be officially dubbed “Buy Your Christmas Cards Week.” All of us dawdlers will realize the item “order cards” on our “to do” list must be moved to the top if we want to take delivery and get our cards mailed before the holidays – especially if we are planning to send out any Hanukkah cards (Hanukkah starts early this year – December 9th).
Our biggest problem is choosing which holiday card to send. We like them all (or at least many of the available cards). Sometimes we find it helpful to do what we call a “taste check”. In other words, we would love to know whether others are gravitating to the same card or style of card that we are considering.
So we have put together a list of Tiny Prints Top Ten Best Sellers. First thing we can't help but notice is that all 10 are photo cards. From our own personal experience, these are the cards we love to receive. In fact, I keep each and every photo card I receive. I love looking back during the holidays, reminiscing and oohing and aahing about how cute the kids are and how much they have grown over the years.
