New Designs - Queen's Jubilee and Olympic Games

Here is a sneak preview of our new designs, fresh from our very talented designer's studio.

They were made with the major events of this year in mind - the Queen's Diamond Jubilee, and the 2012 London Olympic Games

We absolutely love the Union Flag and Banner design:





We also have some really sweet sporty themes for both and girls:

As with all our printed cotton party bags, you will be able to personalised them with the addition of a name and/or small message.  They will also be available on paper party bags and party boxes too, to complete the whole range.



Do I hear wedding bells..?

As December is the season for Santa sacks, so January seems to be the season for  weddings!  With Christmas and New Year out of the way, many brides-to-be combat the January blues by planning their forthcoming nuptials.

One of the issues faced with wedding planners is whether or not to invite very young children, and if you do, how to keep them entertained through the long day.

One solution is to provide them with something to do.  A small activity bag filled with fun things - fiddle toys, colouring books, crayons etc will keep restless kiddies happy (and hopefully quiet!) during the speeches.

We have a variety of these wedding activity bags to suit all budgets - from a simple paper carrier bag, through to a luxury printed cotton bag.  For an extra special touch, all our bags are personalised with a special message and the child's name.  For more information, click on the descriptions of the  images below:

Many of our party bag fillers are suitable for these bags and boxes, in particular, we have a very wide range of small sticker activity books.

Well hello, 2012!

A rather belated Happy New Year to all our readers, fans, customers.  I hope you had a very lovely Christmas, and wish everyone a very successful 2012.

We had a whole 2 weeks off over the Christmas period, and don't we know it!  The kids have gone back to school and I've managed to get back into work mode, although at rather a limp as opposed to a sprint, I have to say.

It's lovely to get back to normal though, and we are full of positivity for the coming year.  As always, I've lots of ideas for new products, and will shortly be starting a new series of blog posts highlighting specific products which I hope our customers will love. 

Last orders for Christmas!

Due to very  high demand, the last date for placing orders for personalised Santa Sacks is Wednesday, 14th December. 

After this date you will not be able to order for this Christmas, so if you're thinking of buying one for a special person, I'd advise you get your order in now.

Santa Sacks

Christmas is fast approaching - and don't we know it!  Fortunately, the Funky Dory HQ is not hiding beneath a very deep blanket of snow, as we were this time last year, but we're managing to feel ever so slightly festive.

This is because we've very busy since the end of the summer holidays printing Santa Sacks and gift bags.  This year they are available in 4 different designs - Santa (of course), Rocking Reindeer, Jolly Snowman and Party Penguin, and in 3 different sizes.

Each Santa sack is printed to order and can be personalised with a Christmas greeting and a name.

Halloween

Yes, it's almost that time of year again, and apologies for anyone who thinks this may be premature, but as some shops have had Halloween goodies in since the end of August, and I need to give those lovely Google bots something new to feed over, I thought I'd better "sort out Halloween"  now.

This year we have the usual mix of Halloween party bag fillers, Halloween loot bags and Cotton Halloween bags. 

New for this year are the lovely black Halloween party boxes - in 3 different designs.  They make lovely party food boxes, and are great filled with goodies as an alternative to a party bag.  There is also the advantage that you will not find these boxes with these designs anywhere else!

We've also added some special paper Halloween party bags - with the same 3 designs.  They are great for parties and trick-or-treaters, and there is LOADS of space inside for treats and sweets.

Toddler Party Bags

Party bags for the under 3's can be hard to come by, because party bag fillers, by their nature are usually small items, and are therefore only suitable for children over the age of 3.

For a while we've stocked bath themed toddler party bags, consisting of a plastic mug (dolphin, penguin or seal) filled with 1 or 2 squeezy bath fish.  We've recently been asked by customers if we can do the bath filled party bag with other kinds of mugs, for example, lion or tiger....and as there's no reason why not, we've expanded the range to include all our animal mugs, and renamed the product Toddler Party Bag.

The squeezy fish are suitable for babies over 3 months of age and the mugs are for children aged 2 and above.  If you are looking for party bags for babies, you can buy a filled party bag with the squeezy fish only.
