Corporate Party Bags and Gifts

PARTY BAGS AND HAMPERS FOR BUSINESS

Corporate entertainment budgets are been reduced significantly and businesses are become increasingly reluctant to spend money on gifts. That is why it is so important to make sure you get the most out of gifts if you do decide to distribute them. Corporate gift hampers  and “party bags” with a selection of branded items have been very popular in the past.

There are any number of very reliable and efficient companies that will look after the whole process from start to finish but if money is tight you may prefer to assemble the gifts inhouse. If you do, then make sure you not only plan the contents of the gift but that you also pay particular attention to the way the gift is presented.

At partyproductsdirect we started business specialising in party bags for childrens parties but over the past year or so we have seen a significant incrase in the number of companies looking for advice on how to assemble corporate gift hampers. They are a bit like party bags for grown ups.

Our advice is always the same. Pay more attention to presentation than to the actual gifts. Yes you will want to give a gift that reflects well on your company but it is hard to beat the wow factor of profesional looking gift wrap. In our experience the wrap to use is cellophanne. This is generally used for childrens party bags or wrapping flowers but that does not mean that you can’t also use it.

Hen Parties – Dressing Up

Friday, April 16th, 2010

HEN PARTIES – DRESSING UP

Hen parties are a traditional ritual for women about to get married. How the tradition came about I am not sure but for the night to go well it needs to be well organised

So the drink is flowing and the meal has gone well. The older relatives are starting to say goodbye. This is now the perfect opportunity to start getting into the hen night attire you purchased. Bunny ears, angel wings, tiaras, etc are all appropriate for a hen night. Dressing up for the hen night is all part of the ritual. It is a bit of fun and makes the statement that the Bride To Be and hens are ready to party. It removes any formality from the evening and certainly gets noticed by those around the party.

If the Bride To Be is happy with the prospect of getting dressed up in all the hen party gear then you will need to select a theme for the party. When considering the options you should be mindful of the spread of ages in the group. A “Wonder Woman ” theme is probably not going to suit some of the older relatives.

So when it comes to selecting a theme what are the options.

COVERT HENS
What I mean by this is a low key approach to the dressing up process. This is really the most conservative and least offensive option. A simple pair of devil horns or a sash is all that will be required. This is the most likely choice if the Bride is shy and does not want a great deal of attention when the hens are out celebrating.

WESTERN
In terms of preparation this theme is not a great deal more difficult than the “covert” hen party. A simple cheque shirt and cowboy hat is all that is required although I have seen the addition of a whip and “lasso” add some real spice to proceedings. Cowboy boots and hot pants can also bring the party to a new level but make sure that you will be allowed into the venue you are planning to visit.

SEX AND THE CITY
This theme allows those interested into getting dressed up to show just what they can do. Personally I think it is a great option as the hens can get dressed up in killer outfits but still avoid some of the traditional hen party gear (If they want to)

There are loads more options when it comes to dressing up but as party supply specialists we think it is hard to get better than the traditional hen night L -Plates, bunny ears and sashes. As the organiser you may want to consider purchasing all the gear in bulk and making up party bags for the hens. That will allow you more time on the evening itself as you do not want to have the hassle of handing out hen party gear on the big night out.

In previous posts I have discussed the use of party bags at hen parties so what not checkout the archive of posts, you are sure to find some useful information

Cellophane Party Bags _Something Different

CELLOPHANE PARTY BAGS

Cellophane party bags are relatively new but if you are hosting a child's birthday party they are certainly worth considering

Cellophane Party Bags

Would you like the guests to leave your childs birthday party with a smile on there face. Think of the satisfaction of hearing from parents that the party bags were the best they had seen. How good would you feel if people asked you for tips on how to put together such a unique party bag?

That will happen if you put a little thought and planning into the preparation of the party bags and in particular make use of cellophane party bags. Cellophane and organza party bags are relatively new additions to the vast array of party supplies available online and I must say they are a super addition.

For example at halloween there are some novel hand shaped party bags. These can be filled with goodies and treats or even used as decorations. In our blog you will find plenty of ideas for halloween so have a look over the next few months.

The cellophane party bags make a huge diference to the look of the going home present. You can fill it with the same party bag toys you had planned to put into a standard plastic party bag but it will look so much better. It’s all about presentation.

If you do decide to use cellophane party bags then they look best when tied with curling ribbon. It really adds to the look of the bag. Another option is to attach a helium balloon.

The great thing about cellophane party bags is that they do not cost a fortune. A packet of 8 cello party bags will only cost about an extra 40p, well worth it if you are trying to create a special party bag.

Cello Party Bags – For Retailers

CELLO PARTY BAGS

Cello Party Bags can not only be used at childrens parties but retailers should also consider using them when wrapping items purchased in their shop

Cello Party Bags

Everyday the news is carrying stories about the recession and how difficult business is. Even for larger retailers such as Next business is down.

At partyproductsdirect we specialise in party bags of all shapes and sizes. Included in our range is a selection of cello party bags and gift wrap. As retailers we understand just how important service is. That is why I am recommending cello wrapping and bags to other retailers. If you are selling gift items then going the “extra mile” on the gift wrap will help ensure your customers leave with a good impression not only of the gift they purchased but with the way it was wrapped and presented.

As retailers we all know how important presentation is but a lot of us just don’t seem to be able to put it into practice. Why not change the way you do business by taking one small cost effective step. Order some cello party bags and ribbon and put a little extra effort into the wrapping and presentation of your merchandise.

CELLOPHANE GIFT BAGS – TRANSFORM A PRESENT

Cellophane party bags can transform a gift into something that stands out from the crowd. For party bags of all types visit partyproductsdirect.co.uk

Cellophane Party Bags

For busy parents and indeed everyone in general the ready availability of cellophane gift bags is a real benefit. Years ago when it came to wrapping gifts there where very limited options, all in various shades of brown wrapping paper. Now thankfully you can make any gift really stand out by using cellophane gift bags and wrapping.

When you are attending any party, even if it is just an informal gathering, the focus should be on the host or in certain cases the guest of honour. You want to make them feel special and important and one way of doing that is by not only giving a gift but by putting a little extra thought into it’s presentation.

Cellophane gift bags are just perfect for turning a standard gift wrapped box into something exciting that will certainly be remembered and appreciated by the recipient. How many times have you hosted a childs birthday party and at the end of it scratched your head wondering who brought what gift. You started the day with the intention of keeping all the gifts well organised, to be opened later, but somehow the kids always beat you to it. It then becomes nearly impossible to write thank you notes.

The presents that you will always remember are the ones whoes wrapping was that little bit different and elaborate. So, just think about that when you are wrapping a present. You may think it does not matter but the recipient does notice. This does not just apply for childrens parties but for weddings, christenings and 21st parties as well.

If your gift is something small like a piece of jewellry then a cellophane gift bag is perfect. All you have to do is pop the gift into the bag, add a few extra bits and pieces such as confetti and tie it at the top with a nice ribbon.  This takes five minutes to do but yet the gift will stand out from the rest.

Cellophane gift bags come in all shapes, sizes and colours and are readily available online. The one thing you can be sure of is that your present will stand out from the rest.

For larger presents you may need to purchase a roll of cellophane giftwrap or if you live near a florist you could ask if they would sell the length you are looking for. Anytime I have asked they have been more than willing and have not even charged.

Wrapping a present in cellophane makes it that bit more interesting and the aspect I like best is that the wrapping does not have to be all neat and tidy.  Cellophane gift wrap does not lend itself to been neatly cellotaped at the corners. It works best when a big bunch of surplus cellophane wrap is tied at the top with a long piece of curling ribbon or a balloon. It looks impressive and professional but does not take any longer to prepare than normal paper gift wrap.

The whole point of giving a gift is to make the recipient feel special on their day of celebration, the focus should be on them and there is no better way of doing that than by presenting your gift in a thoughtful, unique and attractive manner and that is where cellophane gift wrap is just perfect.

CELLO PRE FILLED PARTY BAGS

Newspapers these days are constantly bombarding us with advice on what we should do and have in our houses. It seems that there is no end to the “essentials” that we should not do without. As a busy mother of three, running an online business, it all seems a little much.

Party bags come in many shapes, sizes and designs and at partyproductsdirect you can be sure you will get the best.

Party Bags

Because I run a party business I am probably a little more aware of the merchandise that is available. I will not pretend that they are essential but having a ready supply of cello party bags is a great idea. They will not start a car with a flat battery, or help fix a broken window, but they are a “life saver” in the event of a “party emergency”.

Have you every forgotten about an invitation to a childs birthday party or been invited unexpectedly to an impromtu party. I certainly have, and been more than happy to draw on my stash of spare cello party bags. They can wrap anything from a handful of sweets to a bottle of wine and not only are they a great time saver but the gift will look great when presented in a cello party bag.

Just as an example, my kids were playing in a rugby tournament a few weeks ago and happened to win it. Everyone was delighted and one of the other parents invited us for dinner. Back in the house, in a bit of a panic I grabbed a few ginger bread men and sweets, put them into a cello party bag and tied it at the top with a piece of curling ribbon. They looked great and the neighbours kids were delighted.

Unexpected invitations do not come your way every weekend but don’t forget cello party bags can also be used at standard party occassions such as Holy Communion, birthdays, halloween and even weddings.

When it comes to weddings I am not suggesting for one moment that you can fire a few bits and pieces into a cello party bag, place on the table and assume everything is wonderful. If you are getting married and want to give the guests a small gift then put some thought into the packaging. The way a gift is presented says a lot about the host. By putting effort and thought into the wedding favours you show the guests just how much you value their company and appreciate their friendship.

The organsation of wedding party favours is a subject in itself and one that deserves more detailed attention and I will return to the topic in later posts.

For other party occassions such as Halloween and birthday parties the presentation of party favours in cello party bags will be appreiated by the guests. One parent I know organised a lucky dip for the party bags. The kids loved delving into a box full of cello party bags. I think the russling noise was half the fun.

Anything a little different or unusual will be appreiated by your guests. The novelty factor will always get a reaction. It is very easy to stick with traditional themed party bags but for a little extra effort you can get amazing results.
