		<description><![CDATA[When we ran across this recipe for Peppermint Hot Fudge Sauce on Kitchn this week, we got the urge to whip up a batch of our own, create an adorable label and hand them out as party favors and presents to our family and friends this season. Check out the recipe! Sounds delicious...]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We love the idea of making homemade gifts for the people on our lists this holiday season &#8211; its thoughtful, meaningful and best  of all, affordable! If you have a special recipe or food that you make better than anyone else you know, chances are, someone would love to receive it for a gift. Add a custom label (from Bottle Your Brand, of course!) and the gift becomes personal and extra cute &#8211; after all, who doesn&#8217;t love pretty packaging?</p>
<p>When we ran across this recipe for <a href="http://www.thekitchn.com/thekitchn/guest-post/rhodas-peppermint-hot-fudge-sauce-holiday-guest-post-from-kelsey-of-the-naptime-chef-104138" target="_blank">Peppermint Hot Fudge Sauce on Kitchn</a> this week, we got the urge to whip up a batch of our own, create an adorable label and hand them out as party favors and presents to our family and friends this season. Check out the recipe! Sounds delicious&#8230;</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2549" href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/homemade-gifts-holiday-season/2009_12_21-fudge01"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2549" title="Hot Peppermint Fudge Sauce" src="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/2009_12_21-Fudge01.jpg" alt="Hot Peppermint Fudge Sauce" width="392" height="550" /></a></p>
<p><big><strong>Rhoda’s Peppermint Hot Fudge Sauce</strong></big><br />
<em>Yields 4 cups</em></p>
<p>2 c. unsweetened cocoa powder<br />
1 1/2 c. sugar<br />
1 c. brown sugar<br />
1/4 t. Kosher salt<br />
2 c. heavy cream<br />
1 c. unsalted butter, cut into pieces<br />
2 t. peppermint extract (substitute vanilla, if you don’t want the mint flavor)</p>
<p>Directions: In a double boiler over medium heat stir in cocoa, sugars  and salt. Add the cream and butter. Cook over medium heat, stirring  constantly until the butter is melted and the sauce comes together and  is smooth and glossy. Bring to a boil for 1 minute. Then, remove the  bowl from the heat and let cool for 5 minutes. Stir in the peppermint  extract. Store in the fridge and re-heat when ready to use.</p>
<p>Storage notes: This sauce is great to packages in glass jars for  gifts. When pouring the sauce from the bowl into the jar it is helpful  to use a kitchen funnel if you have one available. This sauce will stay  in the fridge for up to two weeks or more.</p>
<p>Serving ideas: In addition to ice-cream, this sauce is excellent  drizzled over slices of pound cake, cheesecake or a meringue. The  version made with vanilla extract is also delicious served with poached  fruit.</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">Ok, so we know that <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/halloween-party-decorations">Halloween</a> only happened yesterday, but its already time to start thinking about the next big <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/happy-holidays-from-bottle-your-brand">holidays</a> and planning ahead. We&#8217;ve been seeing holiday parties and ideas all over the place already, so we&#8217;re jumping on the bandwagon and saying, better start preparing and ordering your custom wine labels for the holiday season, today! It&#8217;s a busy season, so planning ahead is always a good idea.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Custom labeled bottles of wine can be great as hostess gifts during the onslaught of holiday cocktail parties, or work as a beautiful and personal touch and addition to any table at holiday dinner parties. Giving custom wine as a gift to friends and family is a nice touch (especially if you make your own!), and so is simply spicing up the looks of your drink table or bar at your annual Christmas party. There are so many options and reasons to get custom wine labels during the <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/happy-holidays-from-bottle-your-brand">holidays</a>, so check out some of <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/personalized-wine-labels/holidays" target="_blank">our favorite holiday labels</a> and get to ordering yours. We can&#8217;t wait to see what you come up with this season!</p>

Also, a big thank you to <a href="http://www.adeleleephotography.com/" target="_blank">Adele Lee</a> for taking such great shots of all the party details!</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><a rel="attachment wp-att-2421" href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/real-events-1st-birthday-luau-party/alohaparty"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2421" title="Luau Aloha Hula Birthday Party " src="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/AlohaParty.jpg" alt="Luau Aloha Hula Birthday Party " width="500" height="1760" /></a>All images courtesy of <a href="Luau Aloha Hula Birthday Party " target="_blank">Frog Prince Cake and Cookie Design</a></p>
<p>Kids wore bathing suits and played on a water slide, and there were hula hoop contests to keep everyone entertained. As for the sweet dessert table, there were creatively decorated sugar cookies, pina colada cupcakes served under a mini tiki bar, brownies, themed candy (check out the Gummi pigs &#8211; hysterical!) and a gorgeous cake that was made by Linda herself.<br />

<p style="text-align: center;">Thanks for letting us be a part of such a special day, Linda! We love the way it all turned out.</p>

How did it never occur to us that an umbrella themed baby shower was an adorable idea? We think taking the idea of a "shower" literally is a creative and fun party theme idea - and not one that you see too often. Make tissue paper cloud, rain drop garlands, decorate with cute umbrellas, and shower your loved one!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We are crazy about our new Milk and Cookies party theme set. It's whimsical, fun, a little bit retro (because, let's face it, the idea of milk and cookies as a snack is a little bit retro) and just the right amount of playful. All in all, the perfect set for a kids birthday party!

We've found a TON of inspiration for a sweet party like this. Let's start with the milk. There are so many cute ways to display it and package it for your party.]]></description>

<p style="text-align: center;">We are crazy about our new <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/byb/control/design/~designId=83012">Milk and Cookies party theme set</a>. It&#8217;s whimsical, fun, a little bit <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/label-trends-for-2011-vintage-and-retro-designs">retro</a> (because, let&#8217;s face it, the idea of milk and cookies as a snack is a little bit <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/label-trends-for-2011-vintage-and-retro-designs">retro</a>) and just the right amount of playful. All in all, the perfect set for a kids birthday party!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">We&#8217;ve found a TON of inspiration for a sweet party like this. Let&#8217;s start with the milk. There are so many cute ways to display it and package it for your party.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a rel="attachment wp-att-2346" href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/cookies-milk-party-theme/cookiesandmilk2"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2346" title="Cookies and Milk Party" src="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/CookiesandMilk2.jpg" alt="Cookies and Milk Party" width="500" height="1884" /></a>Top to Bottom, Left to Right: <a href="http://www.karaspartyideas.com/" target="_blank">Kara&#8217;s Party Ideas</a>, <a href="http://www.thecakeblog.com/2011/06/milkaholic-sip-see.html" target="_blank">Half Baked</a>, <a href="http://pinwheellane.etsy.com/" target="_blank">Pinwheel Lane</a>, <a href="http://www.thetomkatstudio.com/sweet-customers-milk-cookies-birthday-party/" target="_blank">The TomKat Studio</a>, <a href="http://www.thetwineryblog.com/2011/06/milk-cookies.html" target="_blank">The Twinery Blog </a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">We love the idea of the large glass juice containers filled with chocolate or regular milk &#8211; this would  also be a great idea for a wedding reception. Using old Starbucks Frappucino bottles, you can give them custom labels and they look like perfect little mini-milk bottles. So many options!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Next up, the most important part, if you happen to ask us &#8211; the cookies. Don&#8217;t think you have to stick with the standard chocolate chip variety &#8211; although, it is delicious. There are plenty of yummy choices &#8211; in fact, having an entire &#8220;cookie bar&#8221; with different types to choose from, is a great idea.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a rel="attachment wp-att-2344" href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/cookies-milk-party-theme/cookiesandmilk4"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2344" title="Cookies and Milk Party" src="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/CookiesandMilk4.jpg" alt="Cookies and Milk Party" width="500" height="1716" /></a><a href="http://www.everythingfab.com/search/label/Food?updated-max=2010-12-20T16%3A50%3A00-05%3A00&amp;max-results=20" target="_blank">Everything Fab</a>, <a href="http://www.celebrationsathomeblog.com/2011/03/milk-cookies-bar.html" target="_blank">Celebrations at Home</a>, <a href="http://karaspartyideas.blogspot.com/search/label/cookies" target="_blank">Kara&#8217;s Party Ideas</a>, <a href="http://divinepartyconcepts.com/2011/08/04/a-backyard-bash/" target="_blank">Divine Party Concepts</a>, <a href="http://www.apartystyle.com/2010/02/milk-and-cookies-party_10.html" target="_blank">A Party Style</a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">What about the cake made entirely out of Oreo cookies? We love it!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Third, let&#8217;s not forget about some cute party favors&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a rel="attachment wp-att-2345" href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/cookies-milk-party-theme/cookiesandmilk3"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2345" title="Cookies and Milk Party" src="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/CookiesandMilk3.jpg" alt="Cookies and Milk Party" width="500" height="546" /></a><a href="http://www.stylemepretty.com/gallery/photo/216645" target="_blank">Style Me Pretty</a>, <a href="http://simplysweetbakeshop.blogspot.com/2009/03/friendship-milk-and-cookies.html" target="_blank">Simply Sweet Bake Shop</a>, <a href="http://pinwheellane.etsy.com/" target="_blank">Pinwheel Lane</a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">And finally, just because its too cute not to share &#8211; we are head over heels for these more &#8220;grown-up&#8221; versions of the classic cookies and milk combo. Perfect for a wedding snack or mini-dessert at your next shindig &#8211; we love the take on making it look like fancy cocktails.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a rel="attachment wp-att-2347" href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/cookies-milk-party-theme/cookiesandmilk1"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2347" title="Cookies and Milk Party" src="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/CookiesandMilk1.jpg" alt="Cookies and Milk Party" width="500" height="1964" /></a><a href="http://hello-naomi.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Hello Naomi</a>, <a href="http://mixingbowlkids.typepad.com/family_bites/page/4/" target="_blank">Family Bites</a>, <a href="http://www.marthastewartweddings.com/photogallery/jennifer-and-kevin#slide_11" target="_blank">Martha Stewart Weddings</a>, <a href="http://travelsinheels.blogspot.com/2011/04/bite-size.html" target="_blank">Travels in Heels</a>, Source Unknown</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">We told you there was plenty of inspiration to chose from! Are you ready to start baking?</p>

A little bit like the retro Push-Pop candy, these adorable treats are a fun way to eat and package cookies, cakes and cupcakes - attach a custom label that fits with your party theme and you're good to go. We've even seen them filled with candy...great idea, if you ask us!]]></description>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We happen to love pretty packaging &#8211; if it comes in a charming, cute or well-designed package, we usually fall for it. Custom labels are of course, a great way to put that finishing touch on packages and gifts &#8211; but beyond that, cute boxes and bags for homemade treats, favors and more, are a great place to get started making your packages look amazing.</p>
<p>We&#8217;ve come across a lot of party and favor packaging shops with unique options on Etsy recently, and they are stocked full of charming picks that would look great with your very own custom label. Whether you are an expert pie baker and need boxes to package your goods for holiday gifts for friends, or a cupcake queen that needs a pretty way to carry your little cakes to friends and family on their birthdays &#8211; there are a ton of lovely options out there.</p>
<p>Check out our picks from some of our favorite Etsy sellers&#8230;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.etsy.com/people/fromsoul?ref=ls_profile" target="_blank">FromSoul</a> has a lot of simple choices for packaging that can be jazzed up with colorful twine, pretty tags and even doilies, lace or ribbon. Each box is sweet and stylish &#8211; we especially love the macaroon boxes!</p>

The little cherries are our number one pick!</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><a rel="attachment wp-att-2315" href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/party-rock-star-custom-birthday-invitation-labels/rockstarparty1"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2315" title="Rock Star Birthday Party Inspiration Board" src="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/RockStarparty1.jpg" alt="Rock Star Birthday Party Inspiration Board" width="500" height="1620" /></a>Cupcakes: <a href="http://www.chickabug.com/blog/" target="_blank">ChickaBug</a>, Music Note Cookies: <a href="http://blog.thecelebrationshoppe.com/category/theme/pop-starrock-n-roll/" target="_blank">The Celebration Shoppe</a>, Microphones: <a href="http://blonde-designs.squarespace.com/blonde-designs-blog/2010/3/11/the-karaoke-party.html" target="_blank">Blonde Designs</a>, VIP Pass: <a href="http://www.saraspartyperfect.com/page/9/" target="_blank">Sara&#8217;s Party Perfect</a>, Record Place Settings: <a href="http://www.hostessblog.com/2011/03/babymania-beatles-inspired-birthday-pt-1/" target="_blank">Hostess with the Mostess</a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Making VIP Access name tags for each kid is a brilliant idea &#8211; fun for them and perhaps it will even help you to keep track of them. Music note cookies are another great idea and easy enough to make and frost at home yourself! Fake microphones are another great party extra kids would have a ball playing with &#8211; perfect for singing along to their favorite song.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">One of the best <a href="http://www.hostessblog.com/2011/02/real-parties-rock-star-birthday-party-part-2/" target="_blank">&#8216;Rock Star&#8217; party examples</a> that we&#8217;ve seen is this one below, from <a href="http://www.hostessblog.com" target="_blank">Hostess with the Mostess</a> &#8211; creative and perfectly executed down to the last detail &#8211; its a wonderful source of inspiration if you&#8217;re thinking about hosting a &#8216;Rock Star&#8217; party soon! We love the swag bag for party favors, and star shaped cake pops.</p>

<p>We just added this new custom invitation design to our site last week, and its already one of our all time favorites &#8211; its a complete set, so there are coordinating water bottle labels and custom sized favor labels as well. If your little one loves cupcakes, why not throw a cupcake theme birthday party for their next special day? Cupcakes are all the rage these days and there are so many cute decor and activity options. We even saw a party that was decorated with paper cupcake liner garlands &#8211; and it was pretty precious!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a rel="attachment wp-att-2304" href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/cupcake-theme-birthday-party/cupcake1"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2304" title="Cupcake Theme Birthday Party Inspiration" src="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Cupcake1.jpg" alt="Cupcake Theme Birthday Party Inspiration" width="500" height="2000" /></a>Top to Bottom, Left to Right: Sparkler Cupcake &#8211; <a href="http://www.marleinoverakker.com/index.php?/cup-cakes/" target="_blank">Marlein Overakker</a>, Dessert Table &#8211; <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/hello_naomi/4600210275/in/faves-hannahduffyphotography/" target="_blank">Hello Naomi</a>, Pinwheel Cupcake &#8211; <a href="http://www.bedifferentactnormal.com/search?q=cupcake+topper" target="_blank">Be Different Act Normal</a>, Cupcake Cake Pops &#8211; <a href="http://www.marthastewart.com/photogallery/birthday-cupcakes-parties#slide_14" target="_blank">Martha Stewart</a>, Cupcake Party Decorations &#8211; <a href="http://our3cs.blogspot.com/2011/03/cookie-monday-camdens-cookies-milk.html" target="_blank">Cookie Mondays</a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Aren&#8217;t the cupcake liner garlands a brilliant idea for decor? Brilliant, we say!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a rel="attachment wp-att-2306" href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/cupcake-theme-birthday-party/cupcake3"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2306" title="Kid's Birthday Party Cupcake Theme Inspiration" src="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Cupcake3.jpg" alt="Kid's Birthday Party Cupcake Theme Inspiration" width="500" height="852" /></a>Cupcake Liner Garland &#8211; <a href="http://our3cs.blogspot.com/2011/03/cookie-monday-camdens-cookies-milk.html" target="_blank">Cookie Mondays</a>, Cupcake Supplies &#8211; <a href="http://designdazzle.blogspot.com/2009/05/cupcake-party-birthday-party-ideas.html" target="_blank">Design Dazzle</a>, Mustache Cupcake &#8211; <a href="http://lisastorms.typepad.com/lisa-storms/page/2/" target="_blank">Lisa Storms </a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">If your little ones are old enough, organizing a cupcake baking party could be lots of fun. Assemble different toppings and sprinkles in bowls for them to choose from, as well as different colors of frosting. You can even include silly toppers like this mustache one we stumbled across.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">One of the most creative cupcake party ideas we&#8217;ve seen recently is the Cupcake Fondue idea from Amanda Krueger at <a href="http://www.bakeitpretty.com" target="_blank">Bake It Pretty</a> &#8211; how fun does this look!?</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a rel="attachment wp-att-2307" href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/cupcake-theme-birthday-party/cupcake4"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2307" title="Cupcake Fondue from Amanda Krueger via Bake It Pretty" src="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Cupcake4.jpg" alt="Cupcake Fondue from Amanda Krueger via Bake It Pretty" width="500" height="1758" /></a>Images Via <a href="http://www.pintsizesocial.com" target="_blank">Pint Size Social</a></p>

		<description><![CDATA[We recently developed a major crush on JP Creatibles, an incredible custom cookie studio located in Ashburn, Virginia, where each cookie is hand-decorated by owner and designer Jen Fisher. Every order than Jen creates is one-of-a-kind because each order is completely custom designed and made-to-order. We are so impressed with her work - the cookies we have seen are like tiny little works of art - so detailed and beautiful, we can hardly believe that they are edible!]]></description>

<p style="text-align: center;">We love the tiny ladybug cookies &#8211; how precious are they?! Jen&#8217;s cookie creations would be the perfect addition to any themed party that you may be planning for the future, or think about her cute monogrammed-style cookies for a wedding favor or treat.</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">We recently created a new invitation and custom label set that would be perfect for any kid&#8217;s summer birthday party &#8211; boy or girl &#8211; The Ice Cream Social. An ice cream themed birthday party allows you to do cute decorations and the kids will love it &#8211; they can get involved scooping ice cream, tasting different flavors and even choosing toppings. Just beware of the sugar rush once its all over!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The label we made is completely customizable, so you can change the stripe colors in the background to fit whatever combination and color scheme your heart desires. The smaller custom label can be used for goody bags or party favors like those above. Fill a to-go ice cream cup with little trinkets and candy, and put the custom label on the side. Doesn&#8217;t get much cuter than that!</p>

<p style="text-align: center;">What do you think of our new 4th of July labels for wine, beer and bottled water? We are particular fans of the colorful, cheerful star print! And, who doesn&#8217;t love all-American beer and freedom wine?</p>

<p>We recently provided labels for a Preppy Pink Crab Party hosted by Jess over at <a href="http://partyboxdesign.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Party Box Design</a> for her daughter, Charli. Charli loves crabs, and Jess loves a well put-together party, and we have to say, the results were fabulous. Using shades of pink, powder blue and navy with polka dots thrown in to add to the &#8220;preppy&#8221; vibe, Jess threw a summer crab fest that was fun for both the kids and adults.</p>
<p>There were steamed crabs, Crabby Ale (with labels from yours truly), and kids took home crabby cupcake push pops and cookies. Adults were given a jar of crabby spice &#8211; all done up with custom labels. Jess says it was her &#8220;favorite party yet&#8221; thanks to amazing vendors and a fantastic photographer, <a href="http://www.cellardoorphoto.com/" target="_blank">Cellar Door Photography</a>.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;">There&#8217;s the birthday girl in her pretty pink tutu! How beautiful does the bar look &#8211; we love that its housed in an old-fashioned white hutch!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align: center;">We are dying over how adorable those cupcakes from <a href="http://www.lynleespetitecakes.com/" target="_blank">Lynlee&#8217;s Petite Cakes</a> are. Almost too cute to eat&#8230;almost.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align: center;">We love the label Jess designed for the water bottles we supplied! And the idea for a Crabby Ale is pretty darn cute.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;">When we stumbled on this collection of wines from <a href="http://www.swansonvineyards.com/wedding-wines.aspx" target="_blank">Swanson Vineyards</a>, we instantly fell in love with their label design and packaging.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today, we thought we would just share with you some of the cool projects and ideas we&#8217;ve seen around the web lately, using custom labels. There are some really cute ideas here, so be prepared to be inspired about your next wedding or party project involving personalized labels!</p>
<p>This first ideas comes from the <a href="http://juliasroomfordessert.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Room for Dessert</a> blog. They simply took brightly colored soda pop in bottles and attached their own custom labels for each guest at the wedding. The bottles serve not only as a fun favor, or sweet treat to sip on, but also as the guests&#8217; seat assignments. Cute and useful &#8211; we love it!</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2059" href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/custom-label-projects-love/100lc_gbmika78_sodapop5"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2059" title="Custom Soda Pop Labels as Wedding Favors and Seating Assigments" src="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/100lc_gbmika78_sodapop5.jpg" alt="Custom Soda Pop Labels as Wedding Favors and Seating Assigments" width="587" height="404" /></a></p>
<p>The next project are some adorable custom beer labels for a wedding that we saw on <a href="http://greenweddingshoes.com/bottle-your-brand/" target="_blank">Green Wedding Shoes</a> &#8211; we love the playful way they worded the names of their &#8220;personalized&#8221; beer. Its also a great and stylish idea to make a few different bottle labels that are all in the same color scheme and style &#8211; to add some variation to your bottles &#8211; plus, its more fun than making just one label. Till Death do Us Porter and Happily Ever Amber? Does it get sweeter than that?!</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2056" href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/custom-label-projects-love/green_barn_wedding_beer"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2056" title="Custom Beer Labels for a Wedding" src="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/green_barn_wedding_beer.jpg" alt="Custom Beer Labels for a Wedding" width="650" height="483" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>We&#8217;d never even thought about putting labels on a bottle of bubbles until we saw these over on <a href="http://www.marthastewart.com/article/daisy-shower-decor-and-favors" target="_blank">Martha Stewart&#8217;s</a> website, but isn&#8217;t this a fantastic idea for a kids&#8217; birthday party?</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2058" href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/custom-label-projects-love/16256916_f5thuupj_c"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2058" title="Custom Label on Bubbles for a Kid's Party" src="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/16256916_F5tHUuPJ_c.jpg" alt="Custom Label on Bubbles for a Kid's Party" width="360" height="450" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.weddingpaperdivas.com/tag/favors/page/2/" target="_blank">Wedding Paper Divas</a> gave us this sweet idea for favors at a wedding, shower or party. Even if you didn&#8217;t have a wedding or party coming up, this is a cool idea if you have a &#8220;world famous&#8221; cookie, brownie or jam recipe. Share with your friends and family as gifts and a personalized label to make it look all the more professional.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a rel="attachment wp-att-2057" href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/custom-label-projects-love/finished-cookie-jar-favors"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2057" title="Homemade Food Favors with Custom Labels" src="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/finished-cookie-jar-favors.jpg" alt="Homemade Food Favors with Custom Labels" width="500" height="750" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Feeling inspired? Which one is your favorite?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><a rel="attachment wp-att-1970" href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/fun-easy-easter-gift-idea/nofussfabulousbunnybrownies"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1970" title="DIY Homemade Easter Gift, Bunny Brownies" src="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/NoFussFabulousBunnyBrownies.jpg" alt="DIY Homemade Easter Gift, Bunny Brownies" width="461" height="442" /></a></p>
<p>Easter is quickly approaching &#8211; have you thought about what you&#8217;re going to do to celebrate this year? We&#8217;ve been busy looking for Easter inspiration this week &#8211; party, favor, invitation and decoration ideas, and then we found these Bunny Brownies over at the <a href="http://www.nofussfabulous.com/?p=10664" target="_blank">No Fuss Fabulous</a> blog.</p>
<p>These would make a fabulous personalized gift or party favor for your Easter celebration this year, and they&#8217;re so adorable, we&#8217;re pretty sure you&#8217;re guests would love them &#8211; and the thought and work you put into making them. Check out the recipe below, find a cute jar to hold all the ingredients, and then all you have to do is get some custom labels (we know a little bit about that, just sayin&#8217;) &#8211; change the name, add your name, whatever you can think of to make it personal and custom. Happy Easter!</p>
<p><strong>BUNNY BROWNIES:</strong></p>
<p>Ingredients and Directions:<br />
1. Reduce 1 sleeve graham crackers to crumbs.<br />
2. Layer 2/3 of the crumbs in a 1 qt jar.<br />
3. Place 8 marshmallow bunny peeps standing up, facing out around the inside of the jar.<br />
4. Press them up against the glass, but don’t squash them.<br />
5. Carefully spoon remaining crumbs in the center of the jar to support the bunnies, pressing down to keep it snug.<br />
6. On top of this pour 1-1/4 cup Easter M&amp;M’s.<br />
7. Spoon 1/3 cup brown sugar into center of M&amp;M’s, gently pressing with a spoon.</p>
<div>
<p><em>Note from No Fuss Fabulous: I nixed the direction and  instead I placed my M&amp;M’s on the bottom as I had seen other women do  in the past. I also used <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Wilton-Disposable-Inch-Decorating-Bags/dp/B0000CFMLT">Wilton’s decorator disposable bags</a> to hold my graham cracker crumbs in. The triangle shape of the  decorator bag makes it easy to fold over even a wide mouth mason jar  keeping the crumbs from ruining your perfect layered look. The decorator  bag is also nice to use because it keeps the bulk of the graham cracker  ingredients at the top of the jar, again giving it a nice layered look.</em></p>
<p>1. Empty the jar contents into a bowl. Snip the bunnies into bits with  kitchen sheers or cut up with a knife. Return the bunny bits to the  mixture. Mix well.<br />
2. Melt 1/2 cup butter; add 1 teaspoon vanilla. Pour this over the dry  ingredients, mixing well. Pat into a greased 9″ square pan. Bake at 350  degrees F for 15 minutes. Cool and cut into bars.<br />
(Makes 9 to 12 bars.)<br />
*Option – leave bunnies whole; combine remaining ingredients and place the bunnies on top; then bake as directed.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ok, we will admit it. We have a particular love for pretty party decor and favors, and are always perusing blogs and boutiques for great, inspirational party ideas. When we found <a href="http://shopsweetlulu.bigcartel.com/" target="_blank">Shop Sweet Lulu</a>, it was a match made in heaven. This online shop is stocked full of brightly colored party favors and decor &#8211; from striped straws to hot pink cake boxes, damask cupcake holders and polka dot goody bags. Sorting through all of the goodies, we realized some of these favors would be perfect complements to some of <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/water-bottle-labels" target="_blank">our labels</a>. Check it out&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a rel="attachment wp-att-1641" href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/pretty-party-favors-sweet-lulu/pinkshopsweetlulu"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1641" title="Custom Label from Bottle Your Brand,  Party Favors and Decorations from Sweet Lulu" src="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/PinkShopSweetLulu.jpg" alt="Custom Label from Bottle Your Brand, Party Favors and Decorations from Sweet Lulu" width="600" height="1723" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Here, we picked one of our popular <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/custom-wedding-labels-trend">wedding labels</a>, &#8220;Ribbons and Dots&#8221;, and matched it with some pink party accessories from Sweet Lulu. With one of our labels, and some treats from Sweet Lulu, this would be one perfectly coordinated and visually stunning party!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a rel="attachment wp-att-1640" href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/pretty-party-favors-sweet-lulu/partyfavorsdecorsweetlulu"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1640" title="Custom Label from Bottle Your Brand,  Party Favors and Decorations from Sweet Lulu" src="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/PartyFavorsDecorSweetLulu.jpg" alt="Custom Label from Bottle Your Brand, Party Favors and Decorations from Sweet Lulu" width="600" height="1024" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">The purple bakers twine and purple polka dot straws would look great at a party with our &#8220;Camelot Dots&#8221; label. Fill those cake platters with some pretty purple-frosted cupcakes and you&#8217;d have everything you need to host a party people will definitely be &#8216;ooh&#8217;ing and &#8216;ahh&#8217;ing over.</p>

<p>Each season, Pantone brings the world the latest and most important color trends &#8211; used in design, fashion and more. This year&#8217;s color palette is inspired by exotic destinations like Africa, India, Peru and Turkey, using both warm and cool tones to balance one another in complimentary hues.</p>
<p>Coral Rose is a sophisticated orange with a bright, spicy feel to it, and Beeswax is a warm honeyed yellow &#8211; both of which look great paired with Regatta.</p>
<p>The romantic, fanciful color of Lavender goes great with Beeswax and Coral Rose, making a unique color pairing that is perfectly balanced. The alluring color of Blue Curacao is a goregous tropical hue that complements both Honeysuckle and Coral Rose. Peapod is our personal favorite for its fresh yellow-green color and the organic element it brings to the table.</p>
<p>The &#8220;nude hues&#8221; &#8211; Silver Peony, Silver Cloud and Deep Russett, go with just about everything in the palette, grounding the bright colors and providing an ethereal feel.</p>
<p>Finally, let&#8217;s not forget Honeysuckle &#8211; the <em>official</em> color of Spring 2011. Bright and flirtatious, this feel-good hue is playful and perfect for post-winter designs!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a rel="attachment wp-att-1252" href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/pantone-spring-2011-colors/pantone-18-2120_honeysuckle"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-1252" title="PANTONE-Honeysuckle-Spring-2011" src="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/PANTONE-18-2120_Honeysuckle-1407x1700.jpg" alt="pantone honeysuckle spring 2011 color" width="640" height="773" /></a>We can&#8217;t wait to start using these colors in our spring designs &#8211; stay tuned and start thinking about which colors you might want to use for your wedding, party or event design. Then, let us know and we&#8217;ll make you the ideal label in whichever shade you prefer!</p>

Save yourself the heartbreak and hassle of printing your own labels and let us handle that for you.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>[singlepic id=272 w=240 h=240 float=center]With everyone pinching pennies lately, event planning has become increasingly focused on DIY elements.  The happy upside to this shift has been that not only is this keeping personalized weddings affordable, it&#8217;s also making them one-of-a-kind!</p>
<p>There are times, however, when it really doesn&#8217;t make sense to do things yourself.  Certain tasks can turn Do It Yourself projects into Definitely Irritate Yourself projects.</p>
<p>For example, if you don&#8217;t know how to sew it&#8217;s probably a disastrous idea to try to sew your own wedding dress.  Likewise, if you&#8217;re a kitchen disaster waiting to happen, baking an elaborate cake is probably a recipe for failure.</p>
<p>DIY water bottle labels is another one of those projects that you can find endless tutorials and customizable templates for online.  Tips for doing so range from buying waterproof paper to print on to printing the labels on your home printer and then adhering them to the bottles using packing tape.</p>
<p>What they fail to mention, however, is the sacrifice of quality you get when you try to print your own water bottle labels.  There&#8217;s just no way that anyone&#8217;s home printer can compare to the printing capabilities of a commercial grade digital printer.</p>
<p>Additionally, printing your own labels and then adhering them with packing tape is a huge pain.  Packing tape sticks to everything (including itself!) and getting it on straight so that it looks nice up-close is a very ambitious goal indeed.</p>
<p>DIY is lovely, when you can truly express yourself and take joy in creating something one-of-a-kind.  Save yourself the heartbreak and hassle of printing your own labels, though, and let us handle that for you.  You can still design a completely custom label, and stick the labels on yourself.</p>
<p>We&#8217;ll just take care of the printing, so you get all the creativity and none of the hassle!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>[singlepic id=281 w=240 h=240 float=center]An etiquette question to be sure!  You&#8217;re planning an event where the person of honor likely can&#8217;t have any alcohol, so is it ok to serve wine at a baby shower?</p>
<p>The answer?  Of course!  Just because the mama-to-be probably won&#8217;t be knocking any glasses of vino back doesn&#8217;t mean your guests can&#8217;t enjoy some libations!</p>
<p>Dress up the bottles with some adorable baby shower-themed wine labels and they&#8217;ll fit right in.  We have some really cute designs in our <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/personalized-wine-labels" target="_blank">Baby Shower category</a>, you&#8217;re sure to find a design you love (including &#8220;<a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/baby-animals-wine-label-14461" target="_blank">Baby Animals</a>&#8220;, shown above).  If you&#8217;re feeling artistic, though, it&#8217;s easy to create completely custom designs too.</p>
<p>We recommend serving a bottle of red and a bottle of white, so your guests can choose their favorite.  Our wine labels are completely waterproof, so no worries about keeping the white wine on ice.</p>
<p>We&#8217;ve found that serving wine at parties can help people mingle more comfortably.  There will likely be a lot of people at the shower who haven&#8217;t met before, so everything you can do to encourage guests to chat and introduce themselves is great!</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re really hesitant about serving wine, just ask the mama-to-be how she feels.  If she isn&#8217;t bothered, no one else will be either!</p>

<p>She said she&#8217;d been stumped for decoration ideas until she took a look at the retirement party invitations and decided to use hammocks as her theme.  She built little hammocks in trays of sand as her centerpieces, and then found cardboard palm trees filled with mints to sit next to each place setting.</p>
<p>The custom water bottles, also featuring hammocks, tied the whole look together.  As you can see in the photo, the overall effect is relaxed, stylish, and perfect for celebrating a retirement!</p>
<p>To get this look, check out &#8220;<a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/retirement-rocks-10239" target="_blank">Retirement Rocks</a>&#8220;, a custom water bottle label featuring cool greens, blues, and, of course, a hammock!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>[singlepic id=271 w=240 h=240 float=center]What do you get when one of the employees of Bottle Your Brand has a big birthday milestone to celebrate?  A custom label extravaganza, that&#8217;s what!</p>
<p>Erika, the reigning social media expert and content queen over at Bottle Your Brand headquarters, celebrated her husband&#8217;s 30th birthday last week using BBQ food, a giant cupcake, and five different kinds of custom labels.</p>
<p>[singlepic id=272 w=240 h=240 float=center]Erika made sure to keep her guests hydrated and happy with custom water bottles.  The water bottle labels featured Yoda (from <em>Star Wars</em>) and Malcolm Reynolds (from <em>Firefly</em>), characters from two of her husband&#8217;s favorite shows.</p>
<p>She bought two cases of water from Costco, removed the original labels, and stuck the custom labels on in their place.  As you can see, the custom labels stayed perfectly on the bottles, even though the bottles were submerged in ice and water for hours.</p>
<p>[singlepic id=270 w=240 h=240 float=center]They even passed the rigorous inspection of one of the tiniest party-goers!</p>
<p>[singlepic id=274 w=240 h=240 float=center]Next, Erika customized beer labels with silly facts and pictures of her husband.  Everyone at the party had fun reading these facts and it was an excellent conversation starter between people who hadn&#8217;t met!</p>
<p>No doubt about it, this 30th birthday party and its custom labels were a hit!  For more photos from this party, please check out our &#8220;<a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/photo-gallery/graduations-and-celebrations" target="_blank">Graduations and Celebrations</a>&#8221; photo gallery.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;d like suggestions and ideas about how to use custom labels at your next party, give us a call or search our blog.  We have so many ideas!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>[singlepic id=259 w=240 h=240 float=center]Retirement parties are some of the most fun to plan.  You&#8217;re celebrating a lifetime of hard work, and some well-earned time off!</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re celebrating the retiree in your life, why not put the emphasis on the relaxation that&#8217;s in store for them?  You can find some inexpensive tiki torches at a party store, encourage everyone to show up wearing Hawaiian shirts, and use the &#8220;<a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/7-day-weekend-sticker-13429" target="_blank">7 Day Weekend Sticker</a>&#8221; to seal bags of retirement-themed favors.</p>
<p>Fun retirement party favors can include small bottles of sunscreen, golf tees, and candies.  Toss them all in clear cellophane bags, and seal them closed with these retirement party custom labels!  The beach and gently swaying palm trees set just the right tone for a retirement party!</p>
<p>Additionally, if you have a little retirement retreat tucked away in your favorite vacation spot, you can use these custom labels to add a personalized touch to the gift basket you leave for guests, welcoming them to your vacation home.  Use these labels on little bars of soap, or packets of local treats, and your guests will be absolutely blown away!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>[singlepic id=258 w=240 h=240 float=center]One of our customers submitted this photo to our gallery and we liked the idea so much we just had to share it!  Wanda is planning a 50th birthday party for her husband, and she customized bottles of Long Island Iced Tea mix for party favors!</p>
<p>We adore party favors that guests will love and actually want to take home, and this one is perfect for adults!  There are so many alcoholic beverage mixers you could use for these favors, the options are staggering!  Margarita mix, lemon drop mix (this would be cute for a bridal shower or bachelorette party!), bloody mary mix, you name it!</p>
<p>To customize this idea for your own, simply buy the bottles of mix (Costco has really great deals on alcoholic beverage mixers), tall cellophane bags, and party color coordinated ribbons.  Order custom wine labels from us, and apply the labels to the bottles over the original labels.</p>
<p>Then, stick the customized bottles in the cellophane bags, tie and curl the ribbons at the top, and voila!  A custom party favor your guests will definitely not want to leave behind!</p>
<p><em>If you&#8217;ve got pictures of our labels in action, please send them to us!  We love to see them, and you could win a $25 Amazon gift card in our monthly drawing!  You can find details, including the email address to send your photos, on <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/photo-contest" target="_blank">this page</a>.</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>[singlepic id=256 w=240 h=240 float=center]When you&#8217;re planning a baby shower, sometimes it feels like you need twice as many arms and four times as much spare time to get everything done!  Invites, venue, decorations, food, games, favors, there&#8217;s a lot to think about and prepare.</p>
<p>While it can be tempting to want to cut corners with the baby shower favors, trust us when we say that these are just as important as the food and games.  Your guests are coming out to celebrate someone you care about, it&#8217;s crucial to make sure they know they&#8217;re valued and appreciated.  Plus, the right favor can make sure the party atmosphere comes home with them!</p>
<p>An easy baby shower favor idea is to buy some cellophane bags (you can buy them for next to nothing at party stores or online) and fill them with ready-to-go treats.  If you&#8217;re feeling ambitious, you can bake a batch of cookies and send each guest home with two homemade cookies.  If you&#8217;re short on time, snack-size candy bars work great too.</p>
<p>Tie the bags closed with ribbon that matches your decorations, and then use a custom label to add some pizazz to the whole ensemble.  We have <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/custom-labels" target="_blank">custom baby shower stickers</a> in a whole host of shapes, sizes, and colors, and it&#8217;s easy to customize the wording.  If you like the one pictured above, you can customize it <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/bow-frame-custom-label-13827" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
<p>Just peel off the protective backing, stick &#8216;em on, and you have a completely custom (and completely easy!) baby shower favor ready to go!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>[singlepic id=249 w=240 h=240 float=center]Jess from <a href="http://partyboxdesign.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Party Box Design</a> recently threw one heck of a party celebrating her adorable daughter Charlotte&#8217;s 2nd birthday, and we are so tickled to have been part of the décor!  (You may remember Jess from our post about her daughter&#8217;s <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/pink-and-green-1st-birthday-party" target="_blank">1st birthday party</a>)</p>
<p>This party was ten different kinds of fabulous, from the colorful flower arrangements to the whimsical straws, every detail was picture-perfect.  If you want all kinds of eye candy and kids party inspiration, check out her recap of the party <a href="http://partyboxdesign.blogspot.com/2010/06/charlottes-party-pics.html" target="_blank">here</a> and <a href="http://partyboxdesign.blogspot.com/2010/06/second-set-of-party-pics.html" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
<p>[singlepic id=250 w=240 h=240 float=center]Jess again chose to use custom water bottles for the refreshments at this party, and it&#8217;s easy to see why: She comes up with the best displays for the bottles!</p>
<p>She used our &#8220;<a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/venetian-wedding-22227" target="_blank">Venetian Wedding</a>&#8221; water bottle label design, customized it with a happy birthday Charlotte message, and then stuck the custom labels over bottles of water she bought separately.  If you head over to her party recaps, you&#8217;ll see that this label matched the black and white damask decorations <em>perfectly</em>.</p>
<p>[singlepic id=251 w=240 h=240 float=center]One thing we loved about this custom bottled water display was the use of large glass cylinders to display the bottles artistically while keeping practicality in mind.  Guests were easily able to grab bottles of water, but they were pretty and added height and drama to the décor while they waited to be used.</p>
<p>Well done yet again Jess!  We heartily recommend her services if you&#8217;re planning a stylish affair, and at the very least we suggest you check out <a href="http://partyboxdesign.blogspot.com" target="_blank">her blog</a> for ideas!</p>

<p>Mazel tov!  If you&#8217;re planning a bar or bat mitzvah, you&#8217;ve got a lot on your plate for planning!  This rite of passage is a huge deal, and you&#8217;ve no doubt got a to do list that&#8217;s longer than the portion of Torah your child will be reading!</p>
<p>Let us help you make the favors easier with custom photo labels.  One of our favorite ways to use custom photo labels is to affix them to gift bags for your guests to take home.  Simply add your favorite photo of your child to one of our custom labels and personalize with his/her name, the date of the bar/bat mitzvah, and voila!</p>
<p>You can fill these gift bags with anything you like, but the important thing is that they&#8217;re completely custom.  Your guests will walk away with a one-of-a-kind memento of one of the most important days in your child&#8217;s life, and if you have any extras you&#8217;ll have a neat keepsake too.</p>
<p>Our custom labels are water-resistant, self-adhesive, and will print picture perfect.  They&#8217;re high quality, easy to use, and affordable, and our Design Online tool makes it easy to make them completely custom.  Simply customize, order, and you&#8217;re done!</p>

<p>Graduation season is almost upon us!  As spring hits its full stride and summer peeks around the corner, seniors around the world are cramming for finals, wrapping up final projects, and looking toward the future.  Graduation is a wonderful thing to celebrate!</p>
<p>Why not celebrate your grad (who&#8217;s of legal drinking age, of course) with a celebratory bottle of wine, bottled in his or her honor?  Customized wine is classy, thoughtful, fun, and a gift they&#8217;ll get a lot of enjoyment out of.  It can be an especially sentimental gift if you customize the wine label with their photo!  If you like the look of the photo wine label shown above, you can personalize it for yourself <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/graduation-photo-wine-label-15268" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
<p>We especially love the idea of giving a personalized bottle of wine to your grad the week before graduation night, with a card that encourages him or her to open the bottle and drink a glass to celebrate his or her wonderful accomplishment after the graduation ceremony.  That way, even if you can&#8217;t be there in person to celebrate you know your grad will be thinking of you the day he or she accepts that diploma.</p>
<p>Our photo wine labels are self-adhesive, waterproof (so you can chill the wine without worrying about the label smearing), and will print your photo picture perfect.  Our low prices make this a completely custom (and completely affordable!) graduation gift idea!</p>

<p>You really do have a lot of options when planning a bachelorette party, don&#8217;t you?  You could go naughty, with gifts and party favors that will make the bride blush, you could go nice, with a fun girls night out, or you could walk the fine line between.</p>
<p>Whichever side of the line you choose to plan from, make sure your guests feel appreciated by giving them fabulous favors.  It&#8217;s easy to use a <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/custom-labels" target="_blank">custom label</a> like the one pictured above (it&#8217;s called &#8220;<a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/martini-custom-label-23880" target="_blank">Martini</a>&#8220;, in case you&#8217;re curious) to turn good favors into great favors!</p>
<p>For example, if the bride loves chocolate why not send all the girls home with a bar of her favorite chocolate, personalized with a fun custom label?  Or, you could order small mirror compacts and use custom labels to help each girl remember the fun she had at your party.</p>
<p>Bath salts, gift cards, jewelry boxes, the possibilities are endless!  You can use custom labels to personalize almost any gift, so make sure that when the ladies leave your bachelorette party they have a little something to remember it by.</p>
<p>After all, if the party you plan veers toward the naughty end and there are many martinis consumed, they may need a little help remembering what happened!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dinosaurs are awesome.  Huge and exotic, they can captivate a roomful of children like nobody&#8217;s business.  That&#8217;s why we designed our adorable &#8220;Dinosaur Duo&#8221; <a title="Birthday Water Bottle Labels" href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/water-bottle-labels/birthday" target="_blank">water bottle label</a>: to help you harness the fun of dinosaurs!</p>
<p>The great thing about dinosaurs is that they&#8217;re not specifically a boy or a girl thing, everyone likes them!  You can throw a dinosaur birthday party for a little girl, a little boy, or both: the only thing that&#8217;s for certain is that everyone will have fun!</p>
<p>The same kind of idea applies to this label design.  You can use this design to customize the bottled water at your party, or apply the design to custom labels and have custom birthday stickers with cute dinosaurs on them.  You could use these custom stickers to seal birthday party favor bags, or even just throw a couple into each bag for the kids to play with later.</p>
<p>This design isn&#8217;t limited to birthday parties, either.  Imagine how adorable this design would look at a charity golf tournament to benefit a children&#8217;s hospital!  You could hand out personalized bottled water bearing this design, or even turn the design into a <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/funny-teacher-gift-idea">bumper sticker</a> and hand out custom <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/funny-bumper-stickers">bumper stickers</a> instead.</p>
<p>Much like the dinosaurs themselves, the possibilities for how you can use this label design are huge!</p>

<p>Do you have a little girl who just loves all things princess?  Pink and purple, sparkles and glitter, everything is full of whimsy and beauty!  If you&#8217;re planning a birthday party for your little princess, check out these gorgeous princess-inspired water bottle labels.</p>
<p>The one you see above is called &#8220;<a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/princess-birthday-10918" target="_blank">Princess Birthday</a>&#8221; and features dreamy clouds and playful pink butterflies.  We also offer this design as well, called &#8220;<a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/fairy-castle-water-bottle-label-14345" target="_blank">Fairy Castle</a>&#8220;, which features a hand-sketched castle a princess could easily call home:</p>
<p>[singlepic id=214 w=240 h=160 float=center]</p>
<p>If neither of these designs are quite your cup of tea, you can always upload your own custom image to our system for a completely custom birthday party favor.  A really fun way to do this is to scan your birthday party invitations, and then use an image from your birthday party invites on your water bottle labels.  Perfectly coordinated and easy to do!</p>
<p>Here are some fun activity ideas for princess themed birthday parties to help you get inspired:</p>
<ul>
<li>Dress up corner.  Have everyone bring her favorite princess dress-up dress and provide plenty of tiaras, gloves, jewelry, and dress-up shoes.  Now watch the fashion show!</li>
<li>Crown construction.  Provide pre-cut princess crowns in lots of colors, and then set out plastic jewels, markers, stickers, feathers, and glue.  Keeps the girls contained and entertained!</li>
<li>Cupcake decorating.  Pre-bake enough cupcakes for everyone at the party, and then set out frosting and sprinkles in various colors and styles.  Make sure you provide lots of towels to help wipe frosting off hands and clothes (and faces!)</li>
</ul>
<p>Princess theme birthday parties are so much fun to plan and attend, just make sure you provide plenty of healthy refreshments so your little princesses have all the energy they need to enjoy themselves!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>[singlepic id=203 w=240 h=160 float=center]</p>
<p>There are so many events you can use favor bags at!  Baby showers, bridal showers, birthday parties, bar and bat mitzvahs; basically, you can use favor bags wherever you need to thank guests for coming to your event.  If you&#8217;re feeling slightly more crafty, you can also use favor boxes as well!</p>
<p>You can fill favor bags with a huge variety of tokens of appreciation.  Sometimes the event calls for a little bit of candy, perhaps a selection of the birthday boy or girl&#8217;s favorite candies?  Other events call for homemade desserts, like perhaps the bride-to-be&#8217;s favorite recipe.</p>
<p>You can also fill favor bags and boxes with bath salts, teas, flower seeds, confetti, or small toys.  It&#8217;s very easy to find affordable favor packaging online, and there&#8217;s a wide range of styles and colors to choose from.</p>
<p>The one thing that is imperative for making favor bags and favor boxes work for your event is custom stickers.  Our custom favor stickers can feature names, dates, monograms, favorite movie characters, or all of the above, and add a completely personal touch to your favors.</p>
<p>Simply use custom stickers to seal your favor boxes or bags and you&#8217;re all set.  Guests will come away from your event feeling thanked for attending, and will certainly notice your attention to detail when they see your custom stickers.</p>
<p>Our <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/custom-labels" target="_blank">custom labels</a> make ideal stickers for favor gift bags.  We offer a variety of sizes and shapes, and our labels have a nice strong adhesive backing so they&#8217;ll keep your favors sealed up tight.  You can completely customize the colors, designs, text, and images on our custom labels, so they can match your event&#8217;s theme and colors exactly!</p>
<p>If you have any questions about using custom labels as favor gift bag seals, just let us know and we&#8217;ll be happy to help you out!</p>

<p>It might seem counterintuitive to have wine at a baby shower, but it&#8217;s actually surprisingly common.  After all, just because the mom-to-be isn&#8217;t going to imbibe, it doesn&#8217;t mean the rest of the guests at the shower can&#8217;t!  Wine at baby showers is a classy refreshment and, when enjoyed in moderation, can help people loosen up a little.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s no secret that we&#8217;re big fans of <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/tag/baby-shower-favors" target="_blank">personalized bottled water at baby showers</a>.  Bottled water and baby showers go together seamlessly, but what about wine?  Well, wine is a surprisingly natural addition to baby showers as well.</p>
<p>The menu for most baby showers tends to gravitate toward sweet treats and light snacks, and wine is a lovely accompaniment to this kind of spread.  Set out a bottle of red and chilled bottle of white in addition to your other refreshments and watch your guests delight over the choices!</p>
<p>Of course, if you personalize the bottled water at your baby shower, you&#8217;ll certainly want to customize the wine labels as well.  The great thing about our new website is that now it&#8217;s easy to use the same design on multiple products!  You can personalize your water label, and then apply that same design to your wine label in the same order.</p>
<p>We have lovely <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/baby-shower" target="_blank">baby shower</a> wine labels to choose from, and even more water label and custom label designs.  You can mix and match, or coordinate your stickers, wine, and water labels!  It&#8217;s a lot of fun to see your baby shower decor come together when the big day rolls around, and even more fun watching guests notice the special touches you included.</p>

<p>Planning birthday parties for boys is fun in its own way, but there&#8217;s just something special about planning girly events.  The ribbons, the frills, the lively colors!  You can plan in a million different directions and still end up with a pretty party that makes your little girl feel like a princess.</p>
<p>With that in mind, take a look at the &#8220;<a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/pink-bow-13822" target="_blank">Pink Bow</a>&#8221; custom label design you see above.  Wouldn&#8217;t this be gorgeous for a little girl&#8217;s birthday party (or even for a baby shower for a baby girl?)  You can order this design in a few different sizes, which means you have quite a few options for adding a custom design element to your party!</p>
<p>You could for example, order this design in the 2&#8243; x 3&#8243; size and use the custom stickers to seal the party invitations.  Envelope seals are a lot of fun, because they give the envelopes the opportunity to set the tone for the entire event.  What little girl wouldn&#8217;t feel special to be invited to a party with a specially sealed envelope?</p>
<p>If you want to include a time for crafts in your party, having a whole bunch of these stickers around is a great idea.  You could encourage the little partygoers to stick these custom stickers on paper princess crowns, or homemade birthday cards, or even just include them in a goody bag to take home and enjoy later.</p>
<p>You could also use these to seal the goody bags.  Send everyone home with a little bag filled with candy and toys and then seal them with these adorable favor labels that thank them for coming to your party.  You can add a little style to your good manners!</p>
<p>We just love designs like these, that can be used in so many different ways for so many different events!</p>

<p>We always get so excited when someone at our company gets married, has a baby, or celebrates a birthday because it means we get to see our products used firsthand!  One of the lovely ladies in our office recently had a baby, and as you can see in the photo above she put our mini water bottles to good use at her shower!</p>
<p>It was a lot of fun to watch the women at the baby shower milling around, chatting and playing games with these bottles sitting convenient right next to them.  The small size was great, because it gave the women at the shower the ability to juggle plates of food, purses, and their drinks without spilling anything.</p>
<p>There was also a beautiful little girl at the shower, and she felt very special indeed to have her very own bottle that was just the right size for her wee little hands.  The 8 oz bottle size is just the right size for grown-ups and little kids alike!</p>
<p>Custom label bottled water is stylish, a natural addition to baby showers.  You can match the colors of your label to the décor of your shower, so that while your guests walk around it&#8217;s like the decorations get to mingle right along with them!</p>

<p>Even though the playoffs have yet to determine who will go head to head at this year&#8217;s Superbowl, that doesn&#8217;t mean you can&#8217;t start stocking up for your Superbowl party!  Whoever ends up heading to Miami in February, you <em>know</em> it&#8217;s going to be a good game!</p>
<p>If you start early, you&#8217;ll have plenty of time to get your guest list and supplies together.  Have you thought about using custom beer labels as part of your Superbowl party decorations?</p>
<p>These personalized beer labels are great, with fully customizable text and bright, eye-catching colors.  When your guests reach for a cold one they&#8217;re bound to take their eyes off the game for just a moment to notice your creativity!</p>
<p>We offer two different football beer labels (<a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/LabelBuilder.asp?idProduct=825" target="_blank">Game Day</a>, featured above, and <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/LabelBuilder.asp?idProduct=824" target="_blank">Super Brew</a>), and the great thing about these designs is their versatility.  You can print them to feature which team you support, the kind of beer you plan to serve, or even put them on bottles of soda if you&#8217;re inviting children to your party!</p>
<p>We also have a football water bottle label (<a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/LabelBuilder.asp?idProduct=781" target="_blank">Flag Football</a>) so if you want to go all out customizing the beverages at your party you can make sure the bottled water looks great too (If you&#8217;d like a list of what we consider must-have Superbowl party supplies, check out <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/?p=412" target="_blank">this post</a>).</p>
<p>Our custom labels take 3 business days to produce and you can choose from a wide range of shipping options to get your labels to you on time.  The labels are completely self-adhesive, so all you have to do is peel off the protective backing and stick them on.</p>
<p>Easy, fun, and custom!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Jessica of <a href="http://www.partyboxdesign.com/" target="_blank">Party Box Design</a> fame recently threw a gorgeous blowout bash to celebrate her daughter&#8217;s first birthday and guess who got to help her with the fabulous décor?</p>
<p>[singlepic id=194 w=240 h=240 float=center]</p>
<p>We did!</p>
<p>Jessica picked pink and green as the colors for this fête, and our <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/LabelBuilder.asp?idProduct=846" target="_blank">Preppy Polka Dots</a> water label was a perfect fit!  The colors and design were a lovely addition to the other decorative touches Jessica included at this party.  For example&#8230;</p>
<p>[singlepic id=195 w=160 h=240 float=center]</p>
<p>Placing some lime slices in this vase of flowers added an unexpected touch of green that complimented the pink polka dot ribbon perfectly.  As you can see, once you have a color theme for a party, it can be a lot of fun to incorporate that theme throughout the event!</p>
<p>The thing we like about Jessica&#8217;s use of Preppy Polka Dots is that this water bottle label design is not, strictly speaking, a birthday label.  You can actually find this label in our <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/category.asp?idCat=3" target="_blank">weddings category</a>!  We love it when customers take designs and use them creatively, thinking outside the box to find the best designs for their events.</p>
<p>Thanks so much to Jessica for letting us be part of this wonderful celebration!</p>

<p>We are so tickled to show these off to you!  Two of our very creative customers used our small water bottle labels on mini bottles of sparkling cider at their Ladies Christmas Dinner last night and, as you can see, the results were spectacular!</p>
<p>They chose our &#8220;<a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/LabelBuilder.asp?idProduct=674" target="_blank">Snowflake Ornaments</a>&#8221; design and bought the labels in our small size.  Then, they bought mini bottles of Martinelli&#8217;s sparkling apple cider (you can find this at grocery stores) and applied the water labels right over the original labels.  The personalized labels fit nicely over the Martinelli&#8217;s label and it&#8217;s really easy to do!</p>
<p>They glammed up the bottles even more by using silver twine to tie tiny ornaments to the necks of the bottles.  The end result was custom and so eye-catching that countless women came over to admire their creativity!</p>
<p>[singlepic id=186 w=160 h=240 float=center]</p>
<p>Custom mini wine labels are ideal for any event where you&#8217;re handing out favors to guests.  If you&#8217;re hosting a party, getting married, or throwing a shower, custom mini wine bottles are adorable and unique.</p>
<p>Our small water bottle labels fit these bottles perfectly, and we have a huge selection of designs to choose from.  We can also print custom designs as well so if you have a genius idea let us know and we&#8217;ll make it happen.</p>
<p>Also, our photo contest is still going on every month.  Send us photos of how you used our products at your event and you&#8217;re entered to win a $25 Amazon gift card.  It&#8217;s easy, just email your photo and brief description of how you used our product to Gallery{at}BottleYourBrand{dot}com!</p>

<p>How cute are these wine bottle candles?!  Kristen, one of our very creative customers, used empty wine bottles and custom wine labels to make unique table decorations at her family&#8217;s reunion this summer.</p>
<p>She designed wine labels with her grandparents&#8217; wedding picture on them, and then adhered the labels to empty wine bottles.  She filled the wine bottles with citronella oil, and, drilled a hole through the wine corks, and fed a long wick through the corks and down into the oil.</p>
<p>Instant custom wine bottle candle!</p>
<p>The thing we love about these is that you can store them and re-use them for future events.  All you&#8217;d need to do is design new labels for different events and then stick them on over the old labels.  Just think how lovely it would be to sit around outside, talking and laughing by the light of these candles while the bugs stayed far, far away.</p>
<p>Great job coming up with a &#8220;green&#8221;, DIY party decoration Kristen, and thank you for letting us feature your project on our blog!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We are often asked whether we sell personalized wine labels for miniature wine bottles.  Mini wine bottles are used to beautiful effect in weddings and parties, often serving as favors or decorative refreshments.  The small bottles and customary foil toppers can be an attractive and festive addition to any event&#8217;s decor.</p>
<p>Now, if you look at our site you&#8217;ll see wine labels and water labels, but no specific mention of mini wine bottle labels.  The reason for this is that you can actually use our small water bottle labels as mini wine bottle labels.  Check it out:</p>
<p>[singlepic id=154 w=160 h=240 float=center]</p>
<p>Looking pretty good, huh?    We love those lolly pops tied to the bottles, it makes them look so festive!</p>
<p>The great thing about using our small water bottle labels as mini wine labels is that they wrap all the way around the bottle, so your bottles look great from all angles.  Plus, you have that much more room for pictures, words, whatever you like.  The height of our small water bottle labels is ideal for mini wine bottles, and with our completely self-adhesive labels, it&#8217;s simple to apply them.</p>
<p>If you take a look at the <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/personalized-label.asp" target="_blank">water label</a> designs and don&#8217;t find any that tickle your fancy, try heading over to the <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/personalized-wine-labels.asp" target="_blank">wine labels</a> section.  If you find a wine label design you love, just let us know and we can turn it into a water label for you!  We&#8217;re happy to work with you to craft a label that&#8217;s perfect for your celebration.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>[singlepic id=126 w=240 h=160 float=center]Beach barbecues, surfing, and volleyball; are there any activities as reminiscent of summer as these?  If mountain ski slopes are the home of winter, then the beach must be summer&#8217;s residence!  The feel of sand under your toes, the sound of waves crashing on the beach, and the gorgeous colors of a beach sunset are just some of what makes spending a day at the beach so much fun.</p>
<p>Beaches are natural locations for parties, because there&#8217;s a little something for everybody.  Playing in the water, hitting a volleyball around, or even just lazing around and taking in the view, no matter who you invite it&#8217;s bound to be a good time.  If you&#8217;re one of the lucky few who lives close to the beach, take advantage!  Beach parties are perfect for birthdays, <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/happy-holidays-from-bottle-your-brand">holidays</a>, or just about any other occasion!</p>
<p>Here are some beach party ideas to spark your creativity:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Shelter</strong>.  Beaches don&#8217;t tend to offer a lot of shade naturally, so pack up a folding canopy or some umbrellas.  Someone will inevitably forget to put on sunscreen and will appreciate the shade like you wouldn&#8217;t believe!</li>
<li><strong>Cold drinks</strong>.  Beaches get hot, and there&#8217;s nothing worse than being parched and stuck without anything to drink!  Pack a cooler or two with ice and load it up beverages.  If you&#8217;re feeling extra fancy, use <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/" target="_blank">custom labels</a> to spice up your beverages.  How cute would the water label featured above look on some water bottles sitting on the beach?!  Don&#8217;t worry, all our labels will withstand water and ice without smearing or falling off.</li>
<li><strong>Seating</strong>.  Sure, sitting on the sand is fine, but pack along some chairs as well for those who don&#8217;t want to or have difficulty sitting on the ground.</li>
<li><strong>Ice</strong>.  Don&#8217;t fall victim to food poisoning!  Keep all your food properly refrigerated by bringing along lots of ice.  Beach parties are fun, botulism isn&#8217;t.</li>
<li><strong>Activities</strong>.  Bring a volleyball net, some sports balls, and wood for a bonfire if you have a pit nearby.  By making sure there&#8217;s a variety of activities, you&#8217;ll insure your guests don&#8217;t get bored, though who can possibly get bored on the beach?</li>
</ul>
<p>We have some really wonderful summery designs for water, wine, and beer.  <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/LabelBuilder.asp?idProduct=935" target="_blank">Nuptial H2O</a>, <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/LabelBuilder.asp?idProduct=494" target="_blank">Adventurous Red</a>, and <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/LabelBuilder.asp?idProduct=600" target="_blank">Four Star</a> are all perfect for summer, with bright colors that will really pop on the beach.  As far as beach party ideas go, this is a pretty original one!  Just stick on our fully adhesive labels, throw them into a cooler, and have fun!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>[singlepic id=45 w=240 h=160 float=center]We talk a lot about weddings here on this blog, because wedding planning is a ton of fun.  It&#8217;s important to remember, however, that the marriage that results from the wedding is more important than favors or décor will ever be.  That&#8217;s why we love anniversary parties so much.  No one ever said marriage was easy.  This is why, in our opinion, every anniversary is a triumph; a testament and celebration of a commitment made between two people in front of their friends and loved ones.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s part of what makes planning an anniversary celebration so much fun.  When you get to honor two people who have been faithful to the vows they made to each other you can really get into the celebration aspect of the event.  A neat idea we&#8217;ve seen here lately for anniversary celebrations is using personalized wine labels to honor the happy couple.</p>
<p>These label designs can be a lot of fun, using old photos from the couple&#8217;s history to show how far they&#8217;ve come.  We&#8217;ve seen some people use old wedding photos, whereas others have used <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/funny-bumper-stickers">funny</a> old photos of the couple from the beginning of their relationship.  With the right photo, and the right sentiment, personalized wine labels can be a beautiful and meaningful anniversary party idea.</p>
<p>If you have graphics experience, you can <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/company/artwork.asp" target="_blank">download a blank label template</a> from our website and then send the artwork to us when you&#8217;re ready to order.  If you don&#8217;t feel comfortable designing a label, we can help you out.  We charge $50 for our artwork design services, and we&#8217;ll work with you until the design is perfect.  We also have a wine label design that has space for a photo (it&#8217;s called &#8220;<a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/LabelBuilder.asp?idProduct=859" target="_blank">Portrait</a>&#8220;), so all you have to do is email a picture to us.</p>
<p>As you can see, there are a lot of options for you to use this idea at your anniversary celebration!  Just let us know what you have in mind for your party and we&#8217;ll do everything we can to make it happen.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Graduation season is upon us!  Everywhere across the country, students are working feverishly to wrap up senior projects, cram for finals, and figure out what comes next.  What a wonderful time to celebrate!</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re honoring a special grad in your life with a celebration in his or her honor, we have some exciting new designs for personalized water labels just for grads.  Personalized bottled water is a natural addition to any celebration, and the young man or lady of the hour is sure to notice this thoughtful addition!  This personalized gift is a wonderful graduation party favor idea that guests will use and love.</p>
<p>[singlepic id=119 w=240 h=160 float=center]If you have a senior portrait or a particularly fun or memorable photo of the new grad, our &#8220;<a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/LabelBuilder.asp?idProduct=985" target="_blank">Cap Toss</a>&#8221; design is a terrific place to showcase it!  The wording is completely customizable, and you can email a photo of your grad to us and we&#8217;ll print it on the label.  This fun design commemorates the jubilant feeling of tossing the caps after graduation!</p>
<p>[singlepic id=118 w=240 h=160 float=center]If your grad has always wanted to see his or her name in lights, this is a great way to get started.  Put his or her name up on our fun &#8220;<a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/LabelBuilder.asp?idProduct=992" target="_blank">Marquee</a>&#8221; design and watch your grad beam with delight.  The wording on this label is completely customizable, and is a wonderful way to tell your grad that you can see big things happening in their future!</p>
<p>We offer all of our designs in waterproof and self-adhesive labels only or already applied to bottled water.  We carry three sizes of bottled water, 8 oz, 12 oz, and 16.9 oz, and two sizes of labels only, small and large.  If you have any questions about any of our products or would like a sample of our products simply let us know.  We&#8217;re always happy to help plan celebrations!</p>

<p>If you have a lot of screaming or running at an adult&#8217;s birthday party, though, something&#8217;s probably gone terribly wrong.  Don&#8217;t worry about it, though, because we&#8217;ve got you covered.  To guarantee a terrific birthday party for a grown-up, here are the things you really need:</p>

<li><strong>Great food</strong>.  Go for some tasty hors d-oeuvres, chips and dip, veggies, fruit, and, of course, cake!  Finger foods are amazing if the party is casual, whereas a sit-down dinner would be lovely for a formal gathering.  Tailor the food selection to suit the birthday boy or girl and you can&#8217;t miss.</li>
<li><strong>Great drinks</strong>.  This doesn&#8217;t necessarily mean booze, though that can certainly help.  Make sure drinks are abundant and easy to find and your guests will thank you for it.  Offer beer, wine, maybe a cocktail or two, and make sure to offer a few non-alcoholic choices well.  We like serving bottles of water and soda in buckets of ice, personally, but that&#8217;s just because they look attractive and are easy to find.  <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/category.asp?idCat=7" target="_blank">Personalized water bottle labels</a> and <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/custom-beer-labels.asp" target="_blank">personalized beer labels</a> look great wherever you put them!</li>
<li><strong>Great favors</strong>.  Party favors are just as important for adults as they are for kids.  Sure, you could throw some candy in a little bag and hand it out but your friends might look at you <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/blog/funny-bumper-stickers">funny</a>.  An even better favor is a bottle of personalized wine.  Raid Trader Joe&#8217;s discount wine section, pick up enough wine to hand out one bottle per couple, and accessorize with a <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/category.asp?idCat=17" target="_blank">personalized birthday wine label</a>.  It&#8217;s the perfect way to say &#8220;Thanks for celebrating!&#8221;</li>
</ol>
<p>We just released some new birthday wine label designs specifically for adult birthday parties:</p>
<p>[singlepic id=8 w=240 h=160 float=center]The new &#8220;<a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/LabelBuilder.asp?idProduct=931" target="_blank">ISH</a>&#8221; wine label design commemorates the attitude that age is just a number.  This is the perfect wine label for anyone who&#8217;s 30-ish, 90-ish, or anywhere in between.</p>
<p>[singlepic id=9 w=240 h=160 float=center]Our &#8220;<a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/LabelBuilder.asp?idProduct=932" target="_blank">Diamonds</a>&#8221; birthday wine label is soft, flirty, and refined.  This label would look amazing on a bottle of pink champagne, fit to toast a lady of distinction!</p>
<p>Even if you don&#8217;t have a pinata at your next adult birthday celebration, that doesn&#8217;t mean your celebration will be drab or dull!  Just make sure you remember the cardinal three rules for throwing a great shindig and have some fun.  One could argue, what with the opportunity to enjoy alcoholic beverages and engage in stimulating conversation, that adult birthday parties might even be more fun!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beer_pong" target="_blank">Beer pong</a>.  Technically it&#8217;s been around since the 1950&#8242;s or 1960&#8242;s, but lately it seems that it&#8217;s getting more popular than ever!  A social drinking game, commonly played at universities and parties, it&#8217;s gaining devotees and fans left and right.  It&#8217;s a great game to play with friends at parties, and a fun way to get everyone talking and interacting.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re planning on hosting a beer pong party or tournament, we&#8217;ve designed some new labels that are perfect for your event.  There&#8217;s no better way to get everyone in the mood for some competitive beer pong than to have custom beer labels for each team.  We have two designs, each of which can be customized to support the different teams.</p>
<p>[singlepic id=11 w=240 h=160 float=center]The new &#8220;<a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/LabelBuilder.asp?idProduct=925" target="_blank">Beer Pong</a>&#8221; design is simple and clean.  This stark design will look great on any bottle of beer you pick.  As with all our labels, these labels are completely waterproof and smudgeproof, so you can store them in ice or in the fridge without worrying that the labels will come off.</p>
<p>[singlepic id=10 w=240 h=160 float=center]Our brand-new &#8220;<a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/LabelBuilder.asp?idProduct=925" target="_blank">Pyramid Pong</a>&#8221; design is a little more formal, with a classic beer label design.  A true winning design, this label would be a perfect prize for your beer pong champions.</p>
<p>Beer pong will always be fun, but for the serious beer pong player, custom beer labels are what set the rookies apart from the champions.  Customize your beer before you hit the table and show them what you&#8217;re made of!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>[singlepic id=20 w=240 h=160 float=center]Looking for fun bridal shower ideas?  We just designed a label for a &#8220;Stock the Bar&#8221; shower and it sounds like so much fun we just had to share it with you!  A &#8220;Stock the Bar&#8221; shower is designed to help the happy couple stock up on everything they&#8217;ll need for throwing a cocktail party.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s the perfect way to help them get all the glassware, martini shakers, decanters, stirrers, ice buckets, and entertaining accessories they&#8217;ll need to throw their own parties someday.  This shower is very low-key, should come with a lot of scrumptious foods, and is one of the few bridal showers that men would actually want to go to, so feel free to invite them too.</p>
<p>The ambience for this party should be relaxed, fun, and warm.  For party favors, you might enjoy handing out wine charms, mini cocktail shakers, or even personalized bottles of wine.  Truthfully, we can&#8217;t think of a better gift or favor for a &#8220;Stock the Bar&#8221; bridal shower than <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/category.asp?idCat=13" target="_blank">customized wine labels</a>.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re invited to one of these showers, a nice bottle of wine with a personalized wine label congratulating the happy couple is a thoughtful, unique gift that will definitely be appreciated.  Likewise, if you&#8217;re hosting one of these showers, handing out bottles of wine with personalized wine labels thanking the guests for coming is also an amazing bridal shower favor idea.</p>
<p>If you have some guests who don&#8217;t drink, you can still use the customized wine labels are just affix them to bottles of sparkling cider.  Personalized wine is beautiful way to thank your guests for coming with a gift they&#8217;ll appreciate and enjoy.</p>
<p>With a shower this fun, it&#8217;s easy to help everyone have a great time and outfit the bride and groom with cocktail party essentials they&#8217;ll enjoy for many years.  Just don&#8217;t forget to hand out favors at the end of the shindig that are as much fun as the rest of the shower!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>[singlepic id=25 w=240 h=160 float=center]Some people have the pleasure of attending hundreds of baby showers.  These people have seen every decoration, eaten every kind of hors d&#8217;oeuvres, and played every silly game ever conceived for a baby shower.  The result of all this experience is that, when asked to throw a baby shower for a loved one, they can use all this experience to throw a really great party.</p>
<p>For those who have never attended a baby shower, wouldn&#8217;t know a shower game from a board game, and feel an oddly perplexed sensation when faced with the term &#8220;diaper cake&#8221;, the idea of throwing a baby shower can seem bewildering.  After all, you&#8217;re being asked to help a friend/family member celebrate a new baby while entertaining a group of perhaps strangers, while also trying to help the new mom get equipped with everything she&#8217;ll need for her newest addition.  It&#8217;s a big job!</p>
<p>As with everything, there are trends and themes for baby showers that it may be helpful for anyone to know.  Here are some of the hottest baby shower trends to help and inspire everyone, from the baby shower newbie to the veteran:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Co-ed baby showers</strong>.  Inviting men to help celebrate a new baby is very popular right now.  It may seem counterintuitive to have a bunch of guys helping to ogle the onesies, but if structure it right the father-to-be can have a lot of fun too.  A co-ed shower is not as structured, should have plenty of food, and will optimally have an equal number of men and women.  <a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?How-to-Throw-a-Co-Ed-Baby-Shower&amp;id=982120" target="_blank">This article</a> is very helpful in figuring out the mechanics of a co-ed baby shower.</li>
<li><strong>Trivia shower games</strong>.  These are being played in more and more baby showers.  In our information-saturated culture, people are more knowledgeable about more things than ever before, so this is a natural way to get everyone involved.  Some of the fun new trivia games that have been circulating are the &#8220;<a href="http://www.plan-the-perfect-baby-shower.com/printable-baby-shower-game.html" target="_blank">Old Wives Tale</a>&#8221; and &#8220;<a href="http://www.plan-the-perfect-baby-shower.com/animal-baby-shower-game.html" target="_blank">Animal Pregnancies</a>&#8221; trivia games.  Be sure to keep some small prizes on hand for the winners.</li>
<li><strong>Personalized baby shower favors</strong>.  Selecting a thoughtful favor for everyone who attends the shower is very important.  You want to thank everyone who took the time and money to help shower your loved one with gifts and well wishes, and the best way to do this is with a thoughtful baby shower favor.  <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/category.asp?idcat=8" target="_blank">Personalized bottled water</a> is a unique way to provide refreshment and give guests a custom memento of your fun event.  A small bottle of water with the baby&#8217;s name, and the names of the parents-to-be, is a fun keepsake for everyone.</li>
<li><strong>Stylish baby shower invitations</strong>.  One of the hottest places to find heart-breakingly cute shower invitations is <a href="http://www.tinyprints.com/" target="_blank">Tiny Prints</a>.  They have a huge selection of styles and designs, their prices are excellent, and their turnaround time is fast.  A great way to get your party started right is to have an invitation that&#8217;s as special as the mom-to-be!</li>
<li><strong>Diaper cakes</strong>.  Sounds bizarre, but diaper cakes are all the rage as show-stopping centerpieces for baby showers.  50-100 diapers are rolled up, arranged into a cake, and then festooned with toys, bibs, and baby paraphernalia.  The mom-to-be can use the whole cake when her little one arrives, and it&#8217;s a beautiful conversation piece for your shower.  You can order these custom over the Internet or create them yourself.</li>
</ol>
<p>Have you seen any great baby shower trends lately?  Please share, we love new ideas!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>[singlepic id=29 w=240 h=160 float=center]Is there anything better than spending Superbowl Sunday with good friends, great food, and cold beer?  We don&#8217;t think so.  The Superbowl is just one of those American institutions that feels good no matter what the economy is doing.  Superbowl 43 is coming up on February 1, 2009, and the timing is perfect to start getting ready to host or make plans to attend a Superbowl party.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re hosting a Superbowl party this year, here are the top five ways to guarantee Superbowl party success:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Custom beer labels</strong>.  We&#8217;ve just designed two football labels specifically for the Superbowl that will look great on any bottle of beer you have at your Superbowl party.  At less than $1 apiece, and with our new promo code to take 10% off your label order, this is an economical way to add a custom touch to your Superbowl party.   Our &#8220;<a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/LabelBuilder.asp?idProduct=825" target="_blank">Game Day</a>&#8221; label design features the bright lights of the football stadium prominently, and our &#8220;<a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/LabelBuilder.asp?idProduct=824" target="_blank">Super Brew</a>&#8221; design gives you the chance to show your love for beer on the 50 yard line.  Coincidentally, this is a great way to show support for your team, and force supporters of the opposing team to support your team as well just by holding the bottle!</li>
<li><strong>Beer</strong>.  Lots of it.  For most Americans, a good football game goes hand in hand with a cold beer, so make sure you stock up on plenty of suds before kick-off.  A great way to store these is in buckets of ice.  This frees up your refrigerator and allows guests to easily help themselves.  You can also throw some other bottles drinks in there as well to keep non-beer drinking guests hydrated.  Fruit juices and bottled water will go nicely in buckets of ice as well.   In fact, if you want to customize your bottled water, we also have a <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/LabelBuilder.asp?idProduct=781" target="_blank">football label for bottled water</a> that you can use to spruce up your water bottles too.  Don&#8217;t let the beer drinkers have all the fun!</li>
<li><strong>Snacks</strong>.  Having an entree is a great idea for after the game, but every Superbowl party needs to have lots of snacks on hand throughout the game in order to keep guests happy.  Going with a variety of snacks will enable you to satisfy a broad variety of tastes, so offer potato chips and dip next to a veggie tray, and throw in some M&amp;M&#8217;s for good measure.</li>
<li><strong>Seating</strong>.  It doesn&#8217;t matter if your guests are all male, all female, or a combination of both: comfortable seating is mandatory for every Superbowl party.  Sitting on the floor gets old real quick.  It may not look the best, but if you drag an extra couch into the room, or squeeze a few more armchairs in front of your TV, your guests will thank you for it.</li>
<li><strong>Decorations</strong>.  Buy or borrow some props for each team playing the Superbowl and scatter them around the room.  It doesn&#8217;t matter if it&#8217;s a foam finger or a custom jersey, decorations are a surefire way to get everyone in the mood to marvel at great passes, bemoan bad calls, and cheer wildly for touchdowns.</li>
</ol>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>[singlepic id=24 w=240 h=160 float=center]Planning a bachelorette party can be a lot of fun.  A bachelorette party (aka a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bachelorette_party" target="_blank">Hen party</a>) is a lot less formal than a bridal shower and is a great opportunity to give the bride some time to let loose with close friends and family before her big day.  Activities for bachelorette parties vary wildly from drinks and dancing to weekends in Vegas.</p>
<p>No matter what you end up planning for your bride-to-be, an important part of any bachelorette party is  <a title="Bachelorette Party Favors" href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/LabelBuilder.asp?idProduct=748" target="_blank">bachelorette party favors</a>.  As with any party, favors are important because they thank your guests for spending time with you at your event.</p>
<p>One of the best ways to do this is with personalized bottled water.  Handing out customized bottled water to your guests throughout the course of the party will keep everyone refreshed, hydrated, and ready to have fun.  After the party, the bottles of water are a neat reminder for everyone of the bride-to-be and her amazing last night out.</p>
<p>We have some brand new water label designs that are perfect for bachelorette parties.  Our <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/category.asp?idCat=25" target="_blank">bachelorette party favors</a> feature designs that range from sassy to classy and will blend well with any plans you may have for the evening.  Our custom water bottle labels come in two sizes (small and large) and are completely water-proof and self-adhesive.  The labels are relatively small and will fit perfectly in a carry-on if you&#8217;re planning a destination bachelorette party.</p>
<p>You can also order these designs on bottles of <a href="http://blog.bottleyourbrand.com/pure-spring-water" target="_blank">our purified spring water</a> and have them delivered.  This will take all the prep work out of your bachelorette party favors and give you more time for other things.  As always, we are happy to provide samples of our products if you&#8217;d like to see the quality of our labels and water for yourself.</p>
<p>Personalized water bottles, prominently featuring the bride-to-be&#8217;s name and other choice details, are a wonderful way to give your favorite bride a unique memento of her last night out, and the perfect way to keep everyone feeling great all night long.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/personalized-wine-labels.asp"><img class="alignleft" style="border: 0px" src="http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/oo330/BottleYourBrand/BirthdayWine2.jpg" border="0" alt="Personalized wine gift" width="150" height="225" /></a>We all love to express our congratulations.  Whenever someone we know lands a new job, buys a house, has a baby, gets engaged, or earns an award it&#8217;s cause for congratulations and celebration.  Picking out a gift of congratulations is almost as fun as saying &#8220;Congrats&#8221; to someone.</p>
<p>Congratulations gifts are a lot of fun to pick out because there are so many to choose from.  One of the best congratulations gifts is a bottle of wine.  Wine means a lot of things to a lot of people, but one of the most popular meanings of wine is &#8220;celebration.&#8221;  Here are our top five favorite ways to use <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/personalized-wine-labels.asp" target="_blank">personalized wine labels</a> to turn any bottle of congratulatory wine into a unique and personal gift:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Housewarming.</strong> Give the proud new homeowners a bottle of wine personalized with their closing date and new address and they&#8217;ll be sure to treasure it forever.  This is a housewarming gift they&#8217;ll enjoy and remember!</li>
<li><strong>Retirement.</strong> If someone in your family or team is retiring, use a personalized bottle of wine to send them off with your gratitude.  Buy a nice bottle of wine (or non-alcoholic cider, if he or she doesn&#8217;t drink alcohol) and customize it with a wine label that thanks them for all their hard work and includes their years of service.  This is a warm, thoughtful way to congratulate someone on their retirement.</li>
<li><strong>Engagement.</strong> Toast the happy couple with a bottle of personalized wine that includes their names and the date they got engaged.  You can even suggest to them that they wait to enjoy the wine until their wedding day!</li>
<li><strong>New baby.</strong> You can still use personalized wine labels to congratulate the new parents, but you might want to put the label on a bottle of non-alcoholic cider instead.  You can customize the label with the baby&#8217;s name, birthdate, and measurements and give the new parents a gift they&#8217;ll cherish.</li>
<li><strong>Milestone birthday.</strong> If someone you know and love is celebrating a milestone birthday, give them a personalized gift to mark the special occasion.  Our <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/category.asp?idCat=17" target="_blank">birthday wine labels</a> are a fun way to commemorate any birthday!</li>
</ol>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/category.asp?idCat=8"><img class="alignleft" style="border: 0px" src="http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/oo330/BottleYourBrand/Baby_2.jpg" border="0" alt="Baby shower favors" width="150" height="175" /></a>The beginning of a baby shower can sometimes be a bit awkward if not everyone knows one another beforehand.  A great way to break the ice and get people mingling is to get everyone involved in a baby shower game.</p>
<p>Baby shower games are fun, sometimes hilarious, and always sure to bring a smile to the mom-to-be&#8217;s face.  There is a huge range of games to play at baby showers, ranging from silly to sweet to shocking.  The best way to prepare games for a shower is to keep in mind the people you&#8217;re inviting and the mom-to-be&#8217;s personality.</p>
<p>For example, if you&#8217;re planning a shower for a lady who&#8217;s suffered morning sickness for the last eight months, playing the &#8220;dirty diaper game&#8221; (wherein the hostess melts a chocolate bar in a diaper and then asks the guests to guess what brand of candy it is) may not go over well.  Likewise, if the invitees are mostly older family members, like grandparents, you may want to plan on games that aren&#8217;t very physically challenging.  If you&#8217;d like more ideas for baby shower games, you might find <a href="http://www.babyshower101.com/baby_shower_games.html" target="_blank">this site</a> helpful.</p>
<p>Whichever games you choose, always make sure to prepare favors for your guests to take home.  Baby shower favors are a vital part of planning a successful shower and a great way to thank your guests for making the day special.</p>
<p>We highly recommend handing out <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/category.asp?idCat=8" target="_blank">personalized baby shower favors</a> that will help your guests remember they were part of a very special event for a loved one.  Our personalized water bottle labels are ideal, easy to make baby shower favors that won&#8217;t explode your budget.</p>
<p>Our label templates range from gender-specific to gender-neutral and display bottles, bears, butterflies, and even dragonflies!  All the wording on our labels is completely customizable, which means that you can showcase the mom and dad-to-be&#8217;s name, the baby&#8217;s name, and even the date of the shower.  We offer a quick turnaround time, so even if you&#8217;re planning a last-minute shower you&#8217;re good to go.</p>
<p>Our labels are waterproof, tear resistant, and feature photo-quality printing and completely self-adhesive backing.  Creating personalized baby shower favors has never been so easy or cute!</p>

<p>Depending on who you ask, kids&#8217; birthday parties are either a blast or an expensive and tiring ordeal.  Thanks to the Internet, though, it&#8217;s never been easier to arrange for all the kids birthday party supplies you need to arrive on your doorstep.</p>
<p>Gone are the days of driving from store to store looking for the perfect party favors to match your child&#8217;s themed party.  Now you can find the best price on everything from tablecloths to entertainment online, and you don&#8217;t even have to change out of your pajamas to do it!</p>
<p>If we may, let us suggest to you that you take the stress out of planning your child&#8217;s birthday party by using <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/private-label-bottled-water.asp" target="_blank">personalized water bottles</a> to cross two necessities off your list: refreshments and party favors.</p>
<p>With the number of obese children growing every day, your fellow parents will enjoy the healthy alternative to soda or juice, and it&#8217;s easy to clean up should there be any spills.  There&#8217;s also the added convenience of using the personalized water bottles as customized party favors.  The kids will go home with a personalized souvenir that won&#8217;t break your piggy bank.</p>
<p>We offer a great selection of <a href="http://www.bottleyourbrand.com/shop/category.asp?idCat=7" target="_blank">customizable label templates</a> that make it easy to create custom label bottled water.  You have two options in ordering: you can either order our bottled water (this comes with the labels already applied) or the labels alone.  Our bottled water takes 5 business days to produce and arrives on your doorstep fully assembled and ready to go.  Our labels only option takes 3 business days and each label comes with a completely self-adhesive backing that makes it easy to apply quickly.  If you choose this option, simply buy some water bottles locally, remove the existing labels, apply the new labels, and voila!  Problem solved!</p>
<p>Our labels are made from a durable, completely synthetic material that will stay on and look beautiful even when stored in ice.  Our water bottles are also 100% recyclable, which makes them easy to dispose of.</p>
<p>If you have any questions or would like a sample of our products, please don&#8217;t hesitate to contact us and we&#8217;ll be happy to help!</p>
