Gift Packaging for Weddings

Filed under: Accommodation, Art & Crafts, Business Opportunities, Garden Home, Uncategorized — Tags: , , , — Ben @ 3:31 pm

Gift packaging is synonym with weddings.  Invitations, favors, wedding gifts, confetti and numerous other items needs gift packaging.

Brides spend months in advance planning their big day and how gift packaging will be used.  Invitations are handmade or printed and posted in gift packaging.  Favors for guests come in gift packaging, whether it is Organza gift bags, gift boxes or gift bags.  Once the theme for the wedding is decided on, gift packaging can be planned accordingly.

Visit reddotgiftpackaging.co.za for a wide selection of gift packaging available for brides.

Receiving invitations in special gift packaging makes the guests feel special and urges them to attend.  Collecting of gift packaging is a hobby for grannies and future brides.

Romantic weddings with lots of Organza ribbons ask for gift packaging complementing the theme.  Modern weddings ask for more straight lined gift packaging.  60’s weddings ask for round and curved lines and your gift packaging will then include hat gift boxes.

Ribbons, raffia and other accessories need to compliment the gift packaging and bring out the colour you decide on.  A designer rule when looking at your colour and planning your gift packaging is the 80/30/spot principle.  For example your wedding is Purple, white and pink.  Use 80% White, 30% purple and touches of pink on your decorations and gift packaging. White tables in this instance will be in perfect harmony if your gift packaging is purple with pink ribbons.  Whether choosing organza ribbons or Satin ribbons is up to the theme you wish to portray.

Visit reddotgiftpackaging.co.za for a selection of organza ribbons, satin ribbons and raffia to choose from.

In the end your ambiance will be perfect if you keep to these principles in your décor and gift packaging. 

Modern brides have list at favorite stores where guests can purchase gifts for the couple.  Plan your gift packaging so that guests can have their gifts placed in your choice gift packaging.  Your gift packaging can then afterwards be used in your home for storage.  This will remind you of your big day and help you organize your first home.

Very often we receive double of the same gift or an item we honestly can’t see ourselves using.  When opening gifts and unwanted items are found, simple keep it in the gift packaging and pass on to the next person. 

One of my secrets is to keep a treasure chest with gifts and gift packaging ready for emergency occasions.

Weddings are special and are worth the effort we put in to them.  Gift packaging is part of this effort.  Photos will remind you of this special day, you don’t want a fraction of your big day not looking up to scratch.

When all is done and you are on your way to your honeymoon, your guest will go home with your wedding favors and have only good wishes for you.

Gift Packaging & Gift Boxes

Gift Packaging

 

The idea of Gift Boxes  and Gift packaging is to have the receiver in anticipation and full of excitement as to what is inside. Gift boxes or other Gift Packaging  can be used to put basically anything in, from CD’s to spanners.Gift Boxes made from board can be round or square. We also refer to round Gift Boxes as Hat boxes. Corrugated Gift Boxes are an option if you want something more earthy looking or have a limited budget.

Visit our Gift Box webpage to view the different colours you can have them made up in. Corrugated Gift Boxes can be made up in different sizes. Corrugated Gift Boxes can either have a base and lid or an H-Lock.

We live in a competitive market and society and therefore must try and be different with products. Gift Boxes and other Gift packaging can either be very plain and classic or it can create excitement and fun. When choosing Gift Boxes for your business or organisation it is important to give it some thought. Decide on the image you want to portray with your Gift Boxes. Do you want you Gift Boxes to be thrown away afterwards or do you want your gift boxes to be used afterwards by the client. Companies normally prefer a longer life for their Gift Boxes, in other words have the Gift Boxes keep on reminding their client about them.

Gift Boxes can be made up in textured paper (Wibalin), shiny sparkle paper (Stardream) or Matt paper. You can have your Gift Boxes covered in your companies Pantone colour and add your company logo to it. Gift Boxes and other Gift packaging can also be foiled with your logo.

On our Gift Boxes page you will be able to view some of the paper we can make your Gift Boxes with. Gift packaging and Gift boxes can be covered in a wide variety of handmade paper. Gift Boxes and other Gift packaging can be made up in any size to suit your specific need. Measure the product you want to put inside and add a bit for Tissue Paper or Lining. When giving your measurements for your Gift Boxes start by looking from the top of your Gift Boxes,length and width and then the depth. Measurements are in mm.

Windows can also be added to Gift Boxes in order to show the gift to others. Gift Boxes need not be plain in the inside. Line your Gift Boxes in either white or in the same colour as the paper on the inside. Gift boxes can have a lining in satin on the inside to help keep your product neatly in its place. Also add a matching or contrasting tissue paper in side your Gift Boxes to add that special touch.Contrasting ribbons can turn your Gift Box into a very special Gift. In choosing the width of a ribbon it is better to go for a wider ribbon. It will make your Gift Boxes more appealing. Add 2 or even 3 ribbons to your Gift Box. On our home page you can view a lovely sample of such Gift packaging items. Ribbons can be printed with your company logo or emblem in order to add that special touch to your Gift Boxes.

Why go to all this trouble with Gift Boxes? Why not just give a gift wrapped in some gift wrap? Very often it is not what we give but how we give it. Gift Boxes and other Gift packaging give you the opportunity to give it with style.Gift packaging and Gift Boxes can turn a normal gift into something worth remembering.

SEVEN PLAGUES OF REVELATION – FULFILLED 2000 YRS AGO!

Filed under: Uncategorized — Tags: , , , , , , , — Ben @ 6:05 pm

THE SEVEN PLAGUES OF REVELATION WERE FULFILLED 2000 YEARS AGO!

As far as i know , the bible says in Heb 10:19,20 That we can now be bold to enter God’s throne room!

Heb 10:19  Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,
Heb 10:20  By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;
Therefore the seven and last plague was fullfilled and gone when Jesus died on the cross! Because no man was able to enter into the temple till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled!
Revelation 15:8 And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power; and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled. 

This all happened on Golgotha!  Jesus opend the Holy of Holies when He died on the cross and HE cried out with a loud voice “IT IS FINISHED”

Why do “church leaders” and “pastors” try to scare people into heaven?

All they have to do is tell the truth about our loving and gracefull God!

Safe Venues

Filed under: Accommodation, Uncategorized — Tags: , , , , — Ben @ 1:00 pm

VENUE SAFE RATING

VSR  (Venue Safe Rating) is a safety rating instrument developed by VSR to ensure that tourists as well as the general public is safe when they visit  tourists attractions, restaurants, accommodation etc.

A Venue Safe Rating is based on self-assessment by the owner of his venue by completing a questionnaire  consisting of  security  matters.  It is assessed on a scale of 1 to 5,  (iron, bronze, silver, gold and platinum ) 1 being the lowest and 5 the highest rating.

PREPARE FOR A SAFE HOLIDAY!

Venue owners register on the VSR website which gives them access to the questionnaire which they then have to complete and rate themselves according to the scale.

Once you have registered on the  Venue Safe Rating database and have paid the annual subscription fee of R2400, your account will be activated and you will have access to the member’s area on our website where you can complete the questionnaire and rate  yourself.

SAFE ACCOMMODATION

You will then be automatically listed on our database with a link to your website and you will receive a certificate stating your VSR status which must be displayed for tourists and visitors.

We receive a lot of enquiries  from overseas visitors and tourists regarding safe accommodation, restaurants and shops  in our country.

The VSR database of safe venues will be made available to booking and travel agents and already has first page ranking on the Google Search Engine when you search for SAFE VENUES

Please contact  us for  more information, or to assist you, to register your venue. You can visit the VSR website at http://www.vsr.co.za
