NEW Wrapping Paper

From what I am hearing from other shopkeepers, the new Zazzle wrapping paper is a big hit with customers! I have not done very much designing for it so I can't say, but I have sold a few rolls considering I only designed a few different ones. I have been seeing some pretty nice wrapping paper though and thinking I need to get some ordered soon. I love the personalized wrapping paper that you can upload a photo to, very cool indeed! I think my grandkids would be surprised to see their faces on their wrapped gifts this year. Check out some of my favorite wrapping paper in different categories including Christmas holiday, birthday, and  just plain cool!Check out the link on the right to see if it's on sale and save money too!

Personalized Pet Bowls I Like

In browsing around the Zazzle marketplace I often come across designs that I just adore. Earlier today I was looking around at pet bowls, and was surprised what a big selection of pet bowls you can find on Zazzle. Whether for your cat or dog, there are a lot to choose from and many are templates so you can easily add your cat or dog's name before ordering. If you're wondering about the sizes and other product specs, I've added the specs for both. Here's the product information for the cat bowls.

"Every kitty needs a custom cat bowl from Zazzle! Printed with your favorite photos, text, and designs, your cat will love our 100% ceramic cat bowls. Dishwasher and microwave approved, this cat bowl is as safe as it is easy to keep clean!
  • 25oz. 2.5” height, 5.75” diameter.

And here is the product information for the dog bowls:

Reindeer Gifts

With a little old driver, so lively and quick, I knew in a moment it must be St. Nick. More rapid than eagles, his coursers they came, and he whistled and shouted and called them by name:

 "Now Dasher! Now Dancer! Now, Prancer and Vixen! On, Comet! On, Cupid! On, Donner and Blitzen! To the top of the porch! To the top of the wall! Now dash away! Dash away! Dash away all!" 

Do you love reindeer?  How much do you know about reindeer? I admit to not knowing a lot. For me it's about what I have gathered over the years from seeing them fly through the sky on movies like Prancer or The Santa Clause movie, or just the general knowledge that grown ups tell their children such as reindeer like apples and sugar cubes and carrots so as a child that's what I left for them on Christmas eve. 

And so I did a bit of research and found that reindeer numbers have dropped nearly 60 percent in the last three decades due to climate change and habitat disturbance caused by humans. Reindeer (caribou) live mostly in Scandanavia and Siberia. They range in weight from 375 pounds for males and 200 pounds for females. 

Caribou are known to travel up to 3,000 miles in a year! Although typically, reindeer do not fly (except Santa's of course!), they can run up to 48 mph, even though they walk slowly!

Reindeer are covered with hollow hairs that trap in air to insulate it from the elements. Male reindeer shed their antlers at the end of mating season but the females keep their antlers throughout the winter, lending belief to all of Santa's reindeer being female!

And so, with that, check out some of the reindeer gifts, ornaments, shirts, mugs, bags, and other items!
