How To Add A Personal Touch To Your Valentine’s Day
03 months ago
A Personal Touch stumbled upon an adorable vintage Valentine’s Day Card in a blog post from FancyHouseRoad.com and we were instantly inspired to share a cute gift idea that, once you add your own personal touch to it, is sure to be one of the most memorable Valentine’s Day gifts ever!
And be sure to keep reading because we love the idea so much, we’re offering a coupon code exclusively for our readers so they can personalize the gift at a discounted price!
Since Thursday, January 19th, 2012 is National Popcorn Day, we knew that today would be a great time to share the cute vintage card (pictured at left) that we came across and the gift ideas we have to go along with it!
The card features a nostalgic drawing of a bowl filled with popcorn and a cute red heart that displays the clever message: “I’m gonna ‘POP’ a ‘CORNY’ question … Will you be my Valentine?”
As soon as we saw this irresistible pun we thought of PersonalizationMall.com’s beautiful and customer-favorite Old-Fashioned Large Popcorn Bowl, which not only fits the popcorn theme, but also has an old-fashioned look just like the vintage card! This unique bowl is crafted from bamboo and can be personalized with any individual or family name or even a short message if you’d like!
The Large Popcorn Bowl is usually priced at $39.95, but if you use this special coupon code: “POPCORN20″, which we created exclusively for our Blog readers, you can personalize the bowl for 20% off!
And what would a popcorn bowl be without the popcorn!? That’s why we’re offering the same code to save 20% off the Amish Country Gourmet Popping Corn, too!
Once you’ve personalized the Large Popcorn bowl, place the bag of popping corn inside with your own home-made version of the vintage card (home-made is always more special because they’ll know you spent the time thinking of them!). Then for an extra personal touch, include either your Valentine’s favorite movie or a movie they’ve been eager to see. Adding the movie will show how well you know or “get” them or if it’s a movie they’ve been wanting to see for awhile, it’ll show that you are a good listener and that you truly care for them!
Combine all the goodies; add a bow and you’ll all set for a low-key, romantic evening of popcorn and a movie! This Valentine’s Day gift is great for men or women and is a gift that keeps on giving because every time your Valentine sits down to enjoy some popcorn from their personalized bowl, they’ll think of you and the special Valentine’s Day you shared together.
We hope our gift idea helped get the ball rolling for your holiday plans because Valentine’s Day will be here before we know it. Be sure to use the above coupon code before it expires Friday, January 27th and check back here at our blog where we’ll be posting more Valentine’s Day gift ideas for the whole family!
Happy Gifting!
Quick & Easy Ways to Get Organized!
04 months ago
Whether you made a New Year’s resolution to get organized or are just looking for a few ways to modify your normal routine, A Personal Touch has a couple tips to help you get a better handle on you and your family’s busy lives!
One of the great benefits of personalized gifts is organization. When you’re able to put someone’s name on something, it can help keep things in their right place.
For example, PersonalizationMall.com can help you keep each family member’s schedule straight with the Family Character Collection© Magnets. For just $4.95, you can personalize a magnet with a whimsical cartoon figure that looks just like each one of your loved ones – even your pets! You can customize the magnet with their name and then choose from male or female adult, youth, or baby figures, with light or dark complexions, and you can even choose to personalize one with a cat or dog. You can use the magnets to display your child’s A+ paper, doctor appointment reminders, individual chore assignments and anything else you can think of! Your kids will get a kick out of seeing themselves as a cartoon and will look forward to checking their magnet each day for reminders or notes from Mom!
You can also keep your family organized by using the set of 3 Grocery List© Personalized Notepads. What’s great about these notepads, which are priced at just $23.95 for the set of 3, is that you can personalize each of notepads however you’d like. So if you have family members with certain food allergies or special diets that require you to go to more than one grocery store, you can personalize a different notepad for your family member with the diet restrictions or you can designate the notepads for each of the stores you’ll be shopping at. Instead of overlooking certain items on one big list in the store, you’ll have 2 shorter lists that are easier to tackle – not to mention, with separate lists you can always hand off one of the lists to a family member so you can share the shopping and be done in half the time!
The notepads also come with a magnetic strip so you can place them right on the refrigerator door so they’re always handy!
If you like the grocery store notepads but are looking to be more organized at work, you’ll love the notepad set with the Dot To Dot© design! You can personalize each notepad for a different job responsibility, such as one notepad for things to go over in upcoming meetings, another notepad for your daily to-do list, and the final notepad to brainstorm or plan upcoming assignments. The Dot to Dot theme is so bright and cheery; you’ll actually have fun writing out your checklists!
The A Year To Remember© Photo Wall Calendar is another great way for you to stay on top of things at home and at work! 
You have the opportunity to pick 12 of your most precious photos which will be printed in full size for each month. Then you can add any 2-line message you’d like on each month so you can feature special birthdays, anniversaries or whatever is most important for you. The calendar has a writable area for daily or month to-do’s so you can leave yourself reminders and you can choose to start the calendar on any month so you don’t waste money on months that have already passed. And as an organizational bonus, we’ve included a “Dates To Remember” page so you can list all the special holidays or occasions you need to remember throughout the year. Priced at only $19.95, you finally have the opportunity to stay on top of your schedule with a personal touch. After all, a calendar is a lot more fun to plan when you’re looking at your favorite photographs!
We hope we’ve been able to offer some great tools to help you keep your New Year’s Resolution. With all these little tips, just think of how much more time you’ll have to spend with family and enjoy personal hobbies!
If you have any organizational tips you’d like to share, we’d love to hear them! Feel free to leave a comment below.
Have fun getting organized and check back here for Valentine’s Day gift ideas soon!
It’s Here: A Personal Touch’s Resolutions Contest!
14 months ago
Did you know that one of the most popular New Year’s resolutions that people select is to spend more time with family and friends?
We love the idea of making time to better keep in touch with loved ones but know that it’s not always easy when you have a busy schedule and family or friends who live far away.
While email and text messages have helped to keep long distance friends or family members in touch with each other, we think they lack somewhat of A Personal Touch. Which is why we’d like to challenge our readers too add a personal touch to their resolution and to make time to stay in touch with family and friends by using hand-written letters!
We love the warm and fuzzy feeling you get from receiving a hand-written note, knowing that your loved one was thinking of you. The act of hand-writing a letter is becoming rare and we’d like to do something about that, so PersonalizationMall.com would like to challenge you with the “2012 Resolutions with A Personal Touch Contest!”
All you need to do is send an email with the subject line “Resolutions Contest” to social@pmall.com before midnight Wednesday, January 25th with the following information:
- The name and relation of the person you would like to keep in touch with more often in 2012.
- A brief sentence or two as to why this person is so important to you and why you’d like to keep better in touch with them.
- Your full name and email address that you’d like to be contacted at if you are selected as the winner.
The contest winner, who will be selected by the A Personal Touch staff, will win their very own set of Personally Yours© Personalized Note Cards & Envelopes that will help them get started with their resolution! The staff will be looking for the most touching entry and we will announce the winner in a post Thursday, January 26th so be sure to get your entry in before then!
We can’t wait to hear all about your loved ones and how you plan to send them love with A Personal Touch one letter at a time!
Good luck!
