It’s Here: A Personal Touch’s Resolutions Contest!

1

New Years Blog1 Its Here: A Personal Touchs Resolutions Contest!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!

Tips to Put the “Thanks” back in Thanksgiving!

imstuffedtshirt Tips to Put the Thanks back in Thanksgiving!Thanksgiving is only a few days away … do you have your holiday to-do list prepared? With all the grocery shopping and cooking that comes with making a beautiful Thanksgiving dinner for your family, it can be hard to focus on anything else that day. That’s why we here at PersonalizationMall.com’s gifting blog, A Personal Touch, have prepared a couple easy Turkey Day tips for you to use in order to make this Thanksgiving even more special than years past!

Thanksgiving day is a great day for family photos, especially because people tend to include pictures taken that day in their family Christmas cards. It’s important to have the little ones looking their best, but it can be hard to put them in a pricey outfit knowing that it soon will be covered in gravy, cranberry sauce and stuffing! That’s why it’s a great idea to personalize our adorable I’m Stuffed© Youth T-Shirt for your son or daughter! You can have their first name personalized under our boy or girl turkey design on an infant t-shirt, infant romper, infant bib or toddler hooded sweatshirt, too! They’ll not only look festive and cute in their turkey t-shirt, they’ll be thankful they’re dressed in comfortable attire while they are running around playing with their siblings and cousins!

turkeycenterpiece Tips to Put the Thanks back in Thanksgiving!With all the hustle and bustle of the holiday season it’s important to make sure everyone remembers what Thanksgiving is all about.

We came across a great idea from Parents.com that offered the idea for this Turkey centerpiece project that can help remind children of the real meaning of Thanksgiving. It’s a simple project that you can do with your kids that also can be used as a beautiful centerpiece for your table.

You start by making the body of the turkey with a Styrofoam ball that you can paint brown or cover in brown yarn. Next you attach a smaller Styrofoam ball that you have already painted or covered in yarn and it will be the turkey’s head. Don’t forget to add the eyes, beak and red gobble neck! Then use different color construction paper to cut out feathers for the turkey. Tape toothpicks to the back of the feathers and leave one blank feather at each place setting on the table with a crayon or marker. Once your guests arrive, or when you’re sitting down for dinner, ask each guest to write down something that they are thankful for on their feather. Before eating, every one can go around one by one and say what they wrote down on their feather. Once they have announced what they are thankful for, they can stick it into the main turkey body so that by the time everyone has had their turn, you’ll have a beautiful and full-feathered turkey centerpiece! It’s a great idea, isn’t it?

We hope these tips have helped you plan for a special Thanksgiving Day with your family. Do you have any tips or Turkey Day projects you can share with the A Personal Touch readers? If so, please comment below … we’d love to hear them!

Happy Thanksgiving!
