Throw a non-traditional baby shower

March 15, 2011 by Candy Wrapper Store

Baby showers can be stressful on all parties involved. Watching the expecting mother open gift after gift can get kinda dull, and as the mom-to-be you may not be so keen on being watched closely as you judge presents for a couple hours. Consider a low-key baby shower instead!

One popular choice is throwing a co-ed shindig. Serve drinks and hors d'oeuvres and you've got a nice little party to celebrate your pregnancy. Encourage your friends to skip the $800 strollers and ask for something simple like diapers, or even just the promise of a future babysitting session. An afternoon full of corny baby games with loved ones will keep everyone happy and preserve the celebratory sentiment of the occasion.

It can get a little uncomfortable having all eyes constantly fixed on you and your belly. Baby shower favors are a great way to let your friends know how much their presence is appreciated. It's a humble gesture that will go over really well.

Creative and thoughtful thank you gifts

March 2, 2011 by Candy Wrapper Store

In today's fast-paced society, one tradition that has sadly fallen by the wayside is the giving of thank you gifts. Whether it's a neighbor shoveling your driveway, a teacher writing you a recommendation or just simple employee appreciation, make them feel extra-special by sending along a little token of your thanks. Here are a few ideas for some unique and affordable thank you gifts that will help you properly express your gratitude.

There are, of course, plenty of gift baskets you can buy that will do the trick, but a personal touch will show that you've really put thought into your gift (and save you money!) Personalized candy wrappers with "thank you" written on them are an effective and cute way to make your present a memorable one. Throw a few of these into a box of homemade cookies and you've got yourself a package anyone would be happy to receive.

Of course, don't forget to include a note! A simple "thank you for your help" will go a long way towards making your recipient feel appreciated.

Throw a princess baby shower for your loved one’s impending arrival

February 25, 2011 by Candy Wrapper Store

Thank heaven for little girls! Although having a son is a wonderful thing, there's something special about our daughters. It goes without saying that they can melt our hearts even when they're running amuck throughout the day and causing a commotion all evening.

If you currently have a close friend or family member who is expecting a girl, why not throw her a princess-inspired baby shower? By the time her little one is old enough to walk and talk, it's likely she'll be obsessed with frilly get-ups and pretty pink dresses anyway.

First, pick out some extra sweet baby shower invitations. Remember, if the affair isn't a surprise, you may want to get the expectant mama's input on what she loves best.

Additionally, don't forget to stock up on amazing party extras. Candy wrapper favors that feature the mom-to-be's image on them will be especially appreciated. Give guests one each and the woman of honor a few more – after all, she's currently eating for two, and you'll want to keep her sweet tooth satiated.

Mariah Carey, Nick Cannon expecting twins

February 4, 2011 by Candy Wrapper Store

Superstar couple Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon may be shopping for two birth announcements, as the pair has revealed they are expecting both a boy and a girl in April, according to the New York Daily News.

After months of speculation about whether or not Carey was expecting, the couple confirmed pregnancy rumors in October but chose to keep the gender of their impending bundle a secret. Then, in December, they confirmed they are having twins.

"There were fan contests on Twitter about what gender they are and rumors about them being two boys or two girls – but nobody guessed this!" Carey told Life & Style magazine.

People magazine reports that the Grammy-winning singer is already working on decorating and designing the twins' nurseries in Los Angeles and New York, and that the parents-to-be have picked out a few names.

There's little doubt that the couple will be the guests of honor at a Hollywood-style baby shower before their children are born as well.

Whatever theme is chosen for the party, guests should expect custom party favors. Candy bars wrapped with twin-themed wrappers, personalized lollipops or other edible treats are great additions to any celebration and are appreciated by guests.

Unique birth announcement ideas

February 2, 2011 by Candy Wrapper Store

Welcoming a new baby into the world is reason to celebrate!

While spreading the word about a new addition to your family is sometimes done via email or text messages these days, there are many unique ways to send a birth announcement.

Traditional birth announcements are often cards that are sent to friends and family both near and far. These cards can now be customized with pictures or themes for almost any preference such as sports and animals, or blue designs for boys, and flowers, ladybugs and pink polka dots and stripes for girls.

Since these traditional cards often end up tacked to the refrigerators of your friends and family, why not send a personalized birth announcement magnet instead? These unique items can also feature a precious picture of your new bundle of joy.

Instead of giving out cigars to friends and co-workers to announce the birth of your baby, opt for candy bars or lifesavers wrapped in personalized candy wrappers or personalized lollipops. These items look and taste great (and unlike cigars, they won't offend anyone)!
