Create your own Opulence wreath

posted on 14 Oct in Our Products, Showroom by Katie Mann.

Create your very own show-stopping wreath display. Our Opulence collection is the perfect 'maximalist' approach to Christmas... with rich, deep colours, luxurious fabrics and bejewelled statement pieces.

1. Spray your wreath gold back and front, working the spray into wreath fronds.

2. Apply light fixing from a point at the top, weaving the longer lengths down to the bottom. Leave any ends of unused lights dangling to work in later.

3. Fix the pheasant (or key product) using strong wire attached at its legs. Force the feet to stand on the rear main part of the wreath.

4. Apply twig brand decorations to entire wreath, allowing them to naturally fall at the bottom of the wreath into a point.

5. Add the next largest item, dragonflies, on key points on the wreath but avoid placing them in a symmetrical fashion. Use florist wire to attach.

6. Add remaining chosen products, work around the key products using existing strings attached to the product to tie to the wreath fronds or use florist wire. Don’t allow the smaller products to distract from the main items. This is an opulent theme so you can really have fun adding to the wreath making it look full and indulgent.

7. Hang up your wreath and enjoy!

DC Boutique beat the heat at our Showroom

posted on 22 Aug in Showroom by The Marketing Angels.

We recently welcomed Debbie & Claire to the showroom from DC Boutique, Kirby Muxloe, Leicestershire.

They were able to escape the heat to do their Christmas buying at our showroom:

“I can’t believe we could be made to feel ‘Christmassy’ on a hot summer’s day! The whole buying experience was lovely in a relaxed, air-conditioned atmosphere.”

“We were totally wowed by the stunning displays and the hospitality extended to us by our ‘Angel’ Jeff was first class. We can’t wait to come back in 2023!”

Thank you again to Debbie & Claire for paying us a visit. We look forward to welcoming you back again soon.

Jeff's Favourite Wreath (as voted by you!)

posted on 10 May in Our Products, Showroom by Katie Mann.

Last up in our series of ‘Angel’ introductions, we have our wonderful Angel Jeff...

Whilst Jeff hates being called an Angel, he is always up for some coffee, cake & a catch up with his lovely East Anglia customers, at our showrooms or out on the road. Jeff has enormous passion and excellent understanding of the gift industry - so make sure you use and abuse him for his industry knowledge! Jeff is a big music & football fan, so he always has plenty to chat about! Just don’t ask him about when he had to wear pink wellies...

Jeff couldn’t decide which was his favourite Christmas theme this year. He was torn between Glitz & Glamour and Alpine, so we decided to put it to the public vote on social media recently and we had over 50 votes with Glitz and Glamour being the overall winner! Did you cast your vote?...

This is what Jeff had to say about one of his favourite collections for 2022 - Glitz and Glamour, all presented on our huge display wreaths and he said:

“Everyone loves a bit of Glitz & Glamour at Christmas! If you are planning to feature silver and/or gold in your retail displays, we’re sure to have lines for you. To give your displays the “glam” factor, mix opulent gold details with hints of silver and go heavy on the sparkle! We’ve got an abundance of glimmering tree toppers, T-Light holders, and our polyresin mice in silver and gold (YIN011A), have been “best-sellers” for us for many years!”

Marina's Favourite Wreath

posted on 20 Apr in Our Products, Showroom by Katie Mann.

If you’re not lucky enough to know our wonderful team of Angels, we would love to introduce you to our Angel Marina. Marina has worked managing design studios within the giftware industry for 12 years, and so has a fantastic eye for style & trends. Marina also has many, many years of experience as a sales manager in this industry, so she really knows how to understand her customers & help their business thrive. When she’s not catching up with her customers in the south east of England, Marina loves spending her weekends perusing art galleries & antique fairs.

We asked Marina to pick her favourite collection for 2022, all presented on our huge display wreaths and she said:

Opulence is my favourite as it’s quirky & fantastic for consumer home decor. It helps to give retailers fantastic ideas for displays, and really create unique displays which customers just love. Opulence is one of the most versatile ranges which retailers can pick display items from for Autumnal, and even Spring/Summer looks. The large birds suit characterful businesses for all-year-round displays, I even take this look home and have a bird festooned wooden garland draped around an archway in my own dining room - I love it!

Some of my favourites are: The below deer head JA075, It’s a stunning piece for an Autumnal window and particularly suits our country customers and can be a fab centrepiece all year round.

Our gorgeous resin pheasant decoration with feather tail KCC921, is also a favourite with countryside lovers.

The new colourway of tealight holders such as SFZ862A/B is a sophisticated look of gold foil reindeer designs on matt pale blue glass. The black glass is so stylish, and these have been so popular with our customers

Our ever-popular mix of jolly clip-on birds BRD029 below, in muted autumnal colours, are so fun & can be added anywhere! And our large fabric patchwork gourds JA090 and ever-popular toadstools such as JA125B & JA094 are also perfect for Autumnal window displays.

Our large jewelled fabric butterflies below like JA098 and clip-on dragonfly JA119 are so versatile & can be used alongside jewellery, scarves and accessory areas in gift shops as decoration. And EEW018 are a mix of 3 adorable toadstools with velvet tops, they’re ideal placed around children’s areas in stores and they always sell well for my customers.

And finally, I just love our stunning sequinned fabric hearts DAT031C & DAT031E and pretty velvet red leaf garland SNS222. Our glittered velvet pink & red flower pieces CODD737 also work so well altogether to create a luxurious & romantic look.

Andrew's Favourite Wreath

posted on 5 Apr in Our Products, Showroom by Katie Mann.

If you’re not lucky enough to know our wonderful team of Angels, we would love to introduce you to our Angel Andrew... Andrew has more years in the card & gift Industry than he would like to admit to! He’s passionate about building strong relationships with each of his customers & looking after their business as if it was his own. When Andrew’s not travelling around the North of England visiting his customers, he loves cooking food and enjoying some good wine with it. He also spends his Saturdays umpiring Hockey matches, he has played Hockey for 30+ years!

We asked Andrew to pick his favourite collection for this year, all presented on our huge gorgeous display wreaths and this is what he said...

My favourite has got to be Winter Wonderland. This year’s wreath for Winter Wonderland is simple and beautifully decorated with sophisticated whites & silvers, which is carried throughout this stunning collection. A minimalistic theme which still has a bold and timeless style, makes it a winner for years to come.

Some of my favourites are our playful Penguin & Polar Bear standing figurines, such as BAZ009 & BAZ026, they make fabulous statement pieces in window displays that really help create that magical eye-catching Wonderland scene. For smaller items that also work well alongside the larger pieces, BAZ034 & BAZ008C tie in with these perfectly.

Some of my other favourite items are our light-up decorations; they really emulate the magic of Christmas & we have quite a unique selection. Available as trees, baubles, lanterns & even Gonks - we have a real variety of light-up pieces to choose from with my personal favourites being: BOC166, BBQ722, BBQ597 & DXX081B.

We can even provide you with plenty of low-cost trade price batteries to keep you going throughout the season! (BAT006/BAT003/BAT001).

 

Angela's Favourite Wreath!

posted on 25 Mar in Our Products, Showroom by Katie Mann.

If you’re not lucky enough to know our wonderful team of Angels, we would love
to introduce you to our Angel Angela... You possibly know Angela from being one of our office
Angels, but she has now been flourishing even more as an on the road Angel for the past few years. Angela has over 20 years experience in customer service & sales, and loves working closely with our lovely customers & making their lives easier & happier! When she’s not working she loves spending time in the sunshine with her family, friends & new puppy Milo!

We asked Angela to pick her favourite collection for this year, all presented on our huge gorgeous display wreaths and this is what she said...

"The Autumnal Halloween wreath is my favourite…. because we’re not just for Christmas!! Over the last few years, we have extended our Halloween range to incorporate a very on trend Autumn collection. This has proven to be very popular with many customers now doing huge Autumn displays using Wreaths, Garlands, Pumpkins, Toadstools etc. Then once Halloween is upon us, they then add more traditional Halloween pieces including our Seasonal Gonks, Metal & Ceramic Pumpkins alongside our fun & spooky signage. This spreads the cost and availability over a longer period."

She then went on to tell us about her absolute favourite products from the Halloween range...

"I love all of the velvet pumpkins! They look beautiful in a porch or covered doorway or in a fireplace. We have a nice range/mix of colours such as KAA020C, KAA020BG or KAA053. HOM027 is a fun spider bowl perfect for holding Halloween treats. And KAA023 is an
adorable bag of pumpkins that look beautiful displayed in a bowl if you are having a Halloween get together, these can also be split and sold separately.

FMA023 is a lovely set of 3 Metal Pumpkins... I mean why would you want to spend time
carving a pumpkin, when these can be put out every year! KAA049A is ideal to display above a fireplace or around a front door with pumpkins. Also looks fab alongside KAA050! Seasonal gonks SUZ566, are really on trend, so you really can’t go wrong with them! And TM045 is a great pocket money pick up item, that can be used year on year.

Our trick or treat bags - items HO731A, HO731B and HO731C are perfect for carrying around those spooky sweets & gifts. Trick or Treat garland XHP111 is perfect to hang in windows. And our witchy chalkboard HLD489 is fun to display in the garden with some spooky messages!"

They are a favourite with all children and one of our bestsellers, with over 17 fabulous designs to choose from, along with an excellent range of price points.

Traditional always gets Christmas off to a good start with some amazing statement pieces.

The smaller selection of bells are so perfect for any wreath making Station or additions to bespoke product, they're also available in every colour and size!

Our selection of proud standing soldiers are perfect for any entrance, along with our lovely post boxes. They create the perfect scene and make any customer wanting to see more.

One of my favourite parts of our Traditional range are the smaller wooden gifts and characters, where we combine wool with rustic woods making them tactile and so soft and quire irresistible They are kept at a very keen trade price points and brighten up any shelf in a home at Christmas… my personal favourite is YIN003, and the little garden acorn characters WLC313 – really they're not to be missed!

Christmas is about tradition and I think this collection is a must for any stockist. Our ranges cover every customer whether young or adult, there’s something for everyone, so don't miss out this year & place your pre orders now to secure your Christmas selection"

Bill & Berts Gift Shop visited our Showroom!

posted on 10 Mar in Showroom by Katie Mann.

We love welcoming customers to our showroom where we can showcase our full Christmas range and have an extensive collection of Halloween and Everyday ranges for you to browse, in a safe & relaxed environment, along with refreshments & delicious lunch on us.

Recently, after attending Spring Fayre, Bill Nettlefield and Sarah Charlton from Bill & Bert's Gift Shop travelled the 20 minutes from the NEC over to us and here’s what they had to say about their visit:

"As usual our annual trip to the Spring Fair went well; but the icing on the cake for us was a visit to the Heaven Sends showroom nearby, to look at their Christmas and Halloween ranges.

In 2021 our Halloween sales were very strong but our expectations for 2022 have rocketed with the extended range on offer from Heaven Sends.

The Christmas range as always simply blows you away with the amazing range on offer!”

Just a reminder that we will not be exhibiting at any trade shows in 2022 however our Showroom is fully open for a personal experience along with expert advice from your angel rep. We can’t wait to welcome you for a visit.
