Religious Christmas Gift Ideas
November 16, 2008
Religious personalized bookmarks are an inexpensive and thoughtful Christmas gift idea.
This time of year we see a lot of orders for the Religious Christmas Bookmark Designs in our catalog which are used for gifts for CCD (Religious Education) students, Catholic school students, church choirs, members of ministries or parish staffs … well, just about any church-based group, committee or ministry.
The laminated bookmark shown left, “Stained Glass Nativity,” is an actual customer order we received just a few days ago. Ordered in our regular size, and shown front and back, these individually personalized bookmarks are a thoughtful and inexpensive gift idea for Christmas.
Of course, they make wonderful gifts for anyone who celebrates this Christian holiday. With a minimum order of only 8 deluxe bookmarks (available in Large and Regular), they also make unique stocking stuffers or can turn an ordinary gift card gift into something very special.
We’ve seen many uses for our custom personalized Christmas bookmarks over the years. Maybe these ideas will inspire you as you make your holiday gift-giving list. Our customers have ordered Christmas bookmarks for:
- every child participating in their church’s Christmas Pageant.
- every member of their church’s children or adult choirs.
- altar servers, lectors, and ushers.
- all CCD, Sunday School or Religious Education students.
- all volunteer teachers — with a thank you message printed on the back.
- Youth Group members
- every member of their church’s congregation, handed out after the Christmas Service or Mass as a gift from the church staff.
- fundraisers — yes, fundraisers. With the quantity discounts we offer, a church can buy bookmarks at a discounted price and sell them during Advent before and after Sunday services. They are scooped up for stocking stuffers, hostess gifts, grab bags, etc. and can be a very profitable fundraiser for the church.
What special Christmas programs is your church planning this year? Please come browse Impressive Inscriptions Christmas Bookmarks this holiday season for a budget-friendly gift idea that everyone will love. You’ll find religious, non-religious and winter holiday designs galore.
Bookmarks are the perfect classroom gift because they promote reading.
One of our recent customers has discovered that she can buy made-to-order personalized laminated bookmarks with tassels for every child in her class for just $1.32 for our “mini” size (as low as 95 cents each with quantity discounts). Her bookmark is shown left, with a clever reading slogan to fit the snowman bookmark theme.
What a budget-friendly idea for a classroom, or an entire grade level or school if teachers combine their orders into one by choosing one design and purchasing it in a larger quantity to qualify for a lower discounted price. And for just .10 more per bookmark, we’ll even print each bookmark with an individual name so students receive their very own personalized bookmark.
At Impressive Inscriptions Bookmark Boutique, we offer a variety of Winter Holiday, Christmas and Hanukkah designs ready for your personalization on front and back, offered in 3 sizes, with or without tassels. You pick the design, you provide the words, and we put it together for you (we provide free proofs so you can see and approve your bookmark before we print them).
It’s easy, it’s affordable, and it’s educational. It’s the perfect gift for teachers to give their students this holiday season. Please come visit us, and don’t forget to check this weblog again for more holiday gift ideas!
Cookie exchange parties are a fun way to kick off the holidays
November 5, 2008
We’re already starting to see Christmas related orders at Impressive Inscriptions, and this is one we really wanted to share with all of you. Cookie Exchange parties are a great way to get all those homemade treats done while getting into the holiday spirit with your friends.
Stephanie, one of our recent customers, put together an order at our website which not only took care of the recipe exchange, but also took care of the “little something” she wanted to give each of her girlfriends as a Christmas gift. As she told us, she was looking for something inexpensive, but thoughtful, to give as Christmas gifts this year, but with the budget tight, she felt her options were limited until she stumbled upon our website looking for Christmas recipe cards. She ended up ordering an individually personalized “Christmas Treats” bookmark for each of her friends, and then picked up a few packs of matching Christmas Treats Personalized Recipe Cards so that each of her friends could share their cookie recipes with each other. She chose to personalize the recipe cards with her own wording: A Recipe from Stephanie’s Cookie Exchange Party
Personalized bookmarks and recipe cards in a fun Christmas design for a Cookie Exchange Party.
Each bookmark was personalized with a different friend’s name. At Impressive Inscriptions, the minimum order is only 8 bookmarks, and you can have a different name printed on each laminated bookmark. Bookmarks and recipe cards are sold separately, but can also be purchased together in a convenient gift set.
Another great idea, if your holiday shopping budget allows for it, is to check out the bargain books table at your local bookstore (or online at Barnes & Noble, Amazon, or Border Books). Pick up a bargain-priced recipe book, which can be very inexpensive, and then give the cook books to your friends and family with a matching personalized bookmark just for them. This idea also works well with book store gift cards, making something very ordinary so much more thoughtful.
We’ll keep sharing our customers’ Christmas & Holiday ideas with you, so come back often!
