FEB 2020 newsletter

Happy February Everyone!

Our redesigned, rebranded website will be launching very soon, which will be much more user friendly – we are excited about this as we’ve been working on it behind the scenes for a while. Please let us know what you think – we know change is not always welcome but sometimes it is necessary – it should be easier to find products on the new site and access inspiration and information easily.

Seasonal / Marketing Ideas
Mother’s Day is the next big celebration on Sunday 22nd March. We have a huge range of gifts for mums, grandmas, foster and adoptive mums, step-mums and just- like – a -mums. Bestsellers include all of our Pandora and Nomination style charms with our necklaces and bracelets.
Print up our smaller or larger “ticket” range as vouchers or try our luxury spinner keyring or popular multi-charm keyring. What about our door hanger for some privacy for mum on her special day?
Our new “Cut above (the rest)” range is launched this month – starting in A5 with Mum (above) and Mummy (previous page). These will be sold flat for wall mounting or scored to be free standing and make really unique statement pieces.
Our wallet cards with Mum Nan or heart cut outs are unusual as ‘show off’ cards or why not try using some contemporary shapes, like the hexagons or buntingfor family wall art – a different way to showcase the generations in a fun and stylish way

FAQs 
Do you sell any double-sided items?
Yes we do (in white finish!) We have a range of smaller items in 0.5mm double-sided items (up to business and size) and any sizes in 1.1mm ones, and it’s a range that we are always expanding on.
Our current bestselling double-sided item is our business / wallet card in both 0.5 and 1.1mm and we also sell seconds of 0.5mm at a reduced price.
Jewellery is always popular in double-sided 1.1 metal. This gives a really striking finish to necklaces and earrings as you can print both sides but also works for cuff bracelets or pendants – where you can print secret romantic or inspirational messages on the inside or reverse.
We also sell a number of double-sided products like our hearts which make lovely keyrings and decorations.
At Christmas time our bestselling bauble comes in double-sided and means you can offer decorations that can be viewed from both sides.
Why not purchase our Double sided white Starter pack for an overview of our available items – remember if you buy before the end of March you’ll get an extra 10% off!
And as always, remember we can cut shapes on our machines to your spec – meaning you can create a bespoke double-sided product for your clients.
