With the Superbowl just days away, the timing couldn’t be more perfect to show off our latest custom invitation and label set! It’s all blue and football for your little guy’s next birthday party.There are so many adorable treat options – we particularly love the idea of making whoopie pies in football shapes – and what a cute favor to give all the little boys footballs of their very own to take home after the party. TOUCHDOWN!

We might be a bit biased, but we happen to think this may be the cutest custom invitation and label set that we’ve made yet. How adorable is the little fairy trying to cast a spell on the frog? We are completely charmed by this invitation and can’t imagine any little girl that wouldn’t want to have her own fairy party – complete with glittering fairy dust, magic wands, wings and tutus, and plenty of tulle and flowers, of course! Order the set for your next birthday party and check out some inspiration to get you started planning, below…

How adorable is our latest custom invitation design? We love the bright colors and vintage-feeling balloon theme – its perfect for any kid’s birthday party – boy or girl! We can’t think of a kid that doesn’t love balloons and the theme would make for such fun decor at a party. This custom label set comes with a custom invitation too, so if you have a birthday party to plan, you might want to take a look at all of the adorable inspiration below! Our personal favorite are the cupcakes and the balloon wreath. So creative!

Our first designer is one talented lady – she has been making awesome label and invitation sets for us for some time now, and we couldn’t be happier with her work. Christina Muscato of Brass Bell Design was actually the brains behind our logo re-design a few months ago, and her work is always fun, inspired and playful. Learn a little more about her…

BYB: We love the designs you come up with. Can you talk a little bit about your design process?

Why, thank you! My design process always starts with brainstorming.  I’ll take an idea and let it sit in my mind for a bit… Then I’ll sketch out a few different visuals, and scribble down some thoughts next to each. After that, I take it to the computer… I start drawing the graphics in the design program, play with a few different color palettes, choose my fonts, and create the overall layout.

BYB: How do you get inspired and stay motivated when it comes to new projects?

It’s easy to be inspired – I’m always inspired! I find inspiration in almost everything around me, and being in a pretty city like Charleston, SC, it’s even easier.  There are a lot of artists / art events here that keep me feeling creative, and there are beautiful buildings with uniquely designed interiors that always put me in a good design mood too.  Also, a lot of cool-looking event posters in doorways, and great music. All of the above, keep me motivated and hungry for more design.

BYB: Mac or PC?

Definitely a Mac! The design world revolves around Mac computers so they’ve always been the best in my mind.

BYB: Talk about two of your favorite designs you’ve done for Bottle Your Brand and why they are your favorites.

BYB: What are you favorite types of things to design?

My favorite things to design are invitations, cute greeting cards, and small poster prints / wall art.  I really love typography and quotes so as long as one of two are involved in a design piece, I’ll enjoy it. Some other favorites are recipe cards, calendars, gift tags, and dessert labels.

BYB: What do you like to do when you aren’t designing/working?

When I’m not designing, I’m usually checking out all the different art or music-related events around town. There are so many artists here and I really enjoy seeing other people’s artwork and supporting them.

We have a new favorite design up on the website today! This new custom Go Bananas label and invitation set may just be one of the cutest that we’ve ever had – how adorable is that little monkey, people?!

We’re bursting at the seams with new designs over here, recently – and there are more on the way soon!

It comes with a custom water bottle label, custom favor label and a personalized invitation – almost everything you need to throw a adorable  train party for the little ones in your life. When we were gathering inspiration for this set, we came across a lot of parties that had little wooden train whistles as party favors – such a cute idea! Check out the rest of our inspiration and let us know what you think!

We’ve got a new designer in the office working on labels and invitations and they are turning out amazing! This race car invitation was one of her first designs for us, and we love it! We can’t think of a little boy that wouldn’t want a birthday party all about race cars.

How cute is the idea of labeling water bottles for the party as “fuel”? Love it!

Linda from Frog Prince Cake and Cookie Design recently put together a tropical themed luau for her niece’s 1st birthday, and we contributed the labels for water bottles – take a look at how it all came together – its pretty cute!

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 – hysterical!) and a gorgeous cake that was made by Linda herself.

Thanks for letting us be a part of such a special day, Linda! We love the way it all turned out.

Fairies in My Garden, is an Australian based shop that offers hand crafted gifts, tea parties, and more. Their owner, Kim,  recently placed an order with us for a few different label designs for her son’s birthday party that was going to be a Star Wars theme. We just got some of the pictures in from the party and we wanted to share this fun and creative party, and the way that Kim used our labels, with you. Check it out…

Congrats on a job well done, Kim! The party looks like it turned out great. Our favorite part has to be the Yoda Soda – by far. What a fabulous idea!

Ready to whip up a batch for your next event or party?

Thought so!

There is a new design set up on the website today! Complete with a customizable invitation and custom labels – including one for water bottles, we love how modern and chic this design is. Plus, its colorful and a little retro which makes it fun. Makes us think about all the other cute ways we could put together a polka dot themed party…

Are these not the cutest cakes and treats?

It’s a fun and whimsical theme that can even work well for weddings – the little drink flags would be perfect in cocktails at the reception – don’t you think?

Polka dots aren’t just for kids anymore!

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.

Top to Bottom, Left to Right: Kara’s Party Ideas, Half Baked, Pinwheel Lane, The TomKat Studio, The Twinery Blog

We love the idea of the large glass juice containers filled with chocolate or regular milk – 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!

Next up, the most important part, if you happen to ask us – the cookies. Don’t think you have to stick with the standard chocolate chip variety – although, it is delicious. There are plenty of yummy choices – in fact, having an entire “cookie bar” with different types to choose from, is a great idea.

What about the cake made entirely out of Oreo cookies? We love it!

Third, let’s not forget about some cute party favors…

And finally, just because its too cute not to share – we are head over heels for these more “grown-up” versions of the classic cookies and milk combo. Perfect for a wedding snack or mini-dessert at your next shindig – we love the take on making it look like fancy cocktails.

Are you going to try your hand at the latest in party treat trends?

We’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 – there are a ton of lovely options out there.

Check out our picks from some of our favorite Etsy sellers…

FromSoul 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 – we especially love the macaroon boxes!

For all of you cupcake fiends out there, Hey Yo Yo has cute little boxes with “windows” to safely and adorably transport your little cakes.

Last but not least, and this store is one of our favorites, we have Petit Moulin. We adore their vintage-inspired choices and minimalist (but charming!) options. The little cherries are our number one pick!

But wait, there’s more…

Feeling inspired to start creating your own pretty and creative packaging? We are!

Every week we are adding new designs to our collection of invitations and custom labels, and this week its the Party Like a Rock Star set – perfect for a little kid’s birthday party. We love the bright colors and dynamic illustrations and designs on this set – complete with a custom favor label, invitation and water bottle label. This could make for a super fun party – for example: play upbeat music and give the kids their own blow-up guitars to play, give away personalized guitar picks as favors and make sure each kid has a pair of hip sunglasses. Check out some more inspiration below…

Cupcakes: ChickaBug, Music Note Cookies: The Celebration Shoppe, Microphones: Blonde Designs, VIP Pass: Sara’s Party Perfect, Record Place Settings: Hostess with the Mostess

Making VIP Access name tags for each kid is a brilliant idea – 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 – perfect for singing along to their favorite song.

One of the best ‘Rock Star’ party examples that we’ve seen is this one below, from Hostess with the Mostess – creative and perfectly executed down to the last detail – its a wonderful source of inspiration if you’re thinking about hosting a ‘Rock Star’ party soon! We love the swag bag for party favors, and star shaped cake pops.

Other great ideas? Pop Rocks and Rock Candy.

ROCK ON!

We just added this new custom invitation design to our site last week, and its already one of our all time favorites – 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 – and it was pretty precious!

Top to Bottom, Left to Right: Sparkler Cupcake – Marlein Overakker, Dessert Table – Hello Naomi, Pinwheel Cupcake – Be Different Act Normal, Cupcake Cake Pops – Martha Stewart, Cupcake Party Decorations – Cookie Mondays

Aren’t the cupcake liner garlands a brilliant idea for decor? Brilliant, we say!

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.

One of the most creative cupcake party ideas we’ve seen recently is the Cupcake Fondue idea from Amanda Krueger at Bake It Pretty – how fun does this look!?

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!

We love the tiny ladybug cookies – how precious are they?! Jen’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.

Aren’t her creations amazing? We are constantly ooh-ing and ahh-ing over what she comes up with. Very impressive!

We recently created a new invitation and custom label set that would be perfect for any kid’s summer birthday party – boy or girl – The Ice Cream Social. An ice cream themed birthday party allows you to do cute decorations and the kids will love it – they can get involved scooping ice cream, tasting different flavors and even choosing toppings. Just beware of the sugar rush once its all over!

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’t get much cuter than that!

We recently made this cute whale-themed label for a customer, and it got us thinking about how cute a whale party would be for a kid’s birthday party or for a baby shower. Especially during the summer! With little spray bottles and squirters filled with water to keep the kids cool while they run around outside, it would be perfect!

Check out some inspiration for planning your own whale of a good time!

This rainbow label is one of our fresh new designs and we are absolutely crazy about it. Its bright, colorful, fresh, vibrant and so cheerful. Plus, it would work great for both a little girl’s or little boy’s birthday party – and you could do so many fun and creative things with the party decor and food. Check out some rainbow party-themed inspiration, below…

We recently provided labels for a Preppy Pink Crab Party hosted by Jess over at Party Box Design 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 “preppy” vibe, Jess threw a summer crab fest that was fun for both the kids and adults.

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 – all done up with custom labels. Jess says it was her “favorite party yet” thanks to amazing vendors and a fantastic photographer, Cellar Door Photography.

There’s the birthday girl in her pretty pink tutu! How beautiful does the bar look – we love that its housed in an old-fashioned white hutch!

We are dying over how adorable those cupcakes from Lynlee’s Petite Cakes are. Almost too cute to eat…almost.

We love the label Jess designed for the water bottles we supplied! And the idea for a Crabby Ale is pretty darn cute.

Check out more photos, details and pictures of the party over on Party Box Design’s blog – including a complete list of vendors used for this charming little soiree!

When we stumbled on this collection of wines from Swanson Vineyards, we instantly fell in love with their label design and packaging. This vineyard has been making wines for the past 25 years, and recently started producing special bottles just made for those extra special occasions in life – from bar mitzvahs and weddings to birth announcements and engagement parties. You could serve guests with these charming little bottles, or give a few as gifts.

We especially love the black label and simplicity of their design and font.

These labels are proof that it doesn’t always have to be fancy to catch your eye and make you want to get a bottle of your very own!

We fell in love with Hey Yo Yo’s Etsy shop as soon as we read her tag line – “For the cupcake fiend in everyone”. How true it is, there is one lurking in each and every one of us. This cute party decor and favor shop is filled with whimsical delights and fanciful frills – the perfect accompaniments for your custom bottled water, wine, beer, favors and more. If you’re going to throw an event or a party with custom labels, you’ve got to go all out – and Hey Yo Yo can help you complete the look of your celebration with their cute finds…

They have every kind of cupcake liner imaginable – from animal prints to stripes in all the shades of the rainbow. Starting to feel like throwing a party? We are!

We’ve never seen straws like these – with stars and hearts and different colored polka dots. They make us want to drink out of a straw all day, every day.

Polka dots make cute decor for a kid’s party, and they have a varying assortment of polka dot favor bags in different colors. Put a custom label on them and you’ll have the cutest favors on the block!

Here, we picked one of our popular wedding labels, “Ribbons and Dots”, 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!

The purple bakers twine and purple polka dot straws would look great at a party with our “Camelot Dots” label. Fill those cake platters with some pretty purple-frosted cupcakes and you’d have everything you need to host a party people will definitely be ‘ooh’ing and ‘ahh’ing over.

Not excited yet?  Well, don’t worry, because we’re just getting started.  Not only is their popcorn delicious, but it’s fresh (popped and seasoned right there on site!) and perfect for party favors.  If you’re feeling up for a little DIY project, you can buy a big bag of their popcorn and then divvy it up into smaller cellophane bags.

A little popcorn, a little ribbon, and presto!  Party favors that people will gobble up!  But wait, there’s something missing: That little something extra.  The custom element that will really make your favors shine.  It’s missing a custom label!

Custom labels are the perfect thing to turn your popcorn favors into custom popcorn favors.  Our labels are completely self-adhesive, so all you have to do is personalize them and then stick them on!

If you don’t happen to live in our neighborhood, don’t worry.  There are tons of places to buy gourmet popcorn, and if you have your heart set on Popcorn Pavilion we happen to know they ship so you can still get your hands on this tasty treat.  Just don’t forget to add custom labels to your popcorn favors for that little something extra!

Erika, the reigning social media expert and content queen over at Bottle Your Brand headquarters, celebrated her husband’s 30th birthday last week using BBQ food, a giant cupcake, and five different kinds of custom labels.

[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 Star Wars) and Malcolm Reynolds (from Firefly), characters from two of her husband’s favorite shows.

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.

[singlepic id=270 w=240 h=240 float=center]They even passed the rigorous inspection of one of the tiniest party-goers!

[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’t met!

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 “Graduations and Celebrations” photo gallery.

If you’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!

“Amelia” is a custom wine label that can be used for weddings, bridal or baby showers, birthday parties, or gifts.  Combining modern colors with vintage styling, this wine label design is a tour de force of chic style!

You can use the large central area to add a monogram to this wine label, or you can put something like a photo or date there.  The aqua blue border provides ample room for event details, but the color is bold enough that it stands well on its own.

As always, our wine labels are completely waterproof and print picture-perfect with bright, vibrant colors.  If you’re planning a stylish, modern event with a hint of vintage charm, “Amelia” just might be the label design for you!

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!

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.

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!

If you’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 this page.

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 here and here.

[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’s easy to see why: She comes up with the best displays for the bottles!

She used our “Venetian Wedding” 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’ll see that this label matched the black and white damask decorations perfectly.

[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.

Well done yet again Jess!  We heartily recommend her services if you’re planning a stylish affair, and at the very least we suggest you check out her blog for ideas!

Well, check out these awesome custom motorcycle stickers!  The design, featured above, is called “Motocross Weekend” and prominently displays a motocross rider in front of a brightly colored background.  There’s plenty of room on this label design to add your loved one’s name, and you can bet he or she will love seeing his or her name on this awesome design!

You can use this custom sticker to make personalized gift bags for birthday parties, label things (like calculators, laptops, iPods, etc.), or to label a gift for him or her (our 5″ x 5″ custom label size is perfect for CD cases!).

Indulge your loved one’s love of all things motorcycle with this vibrant custom label!  He or she will be so thrilled with your excellent taste, he or she might just take you out for a spin!

The great thing about dinosaurs is that they’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’s for certain is that everyone will have fun!

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.

This design isn’t limited to birthday parties, either.  Imagine how adorable this design would look at a charity golf tournament to benefit a children’s hospital!  You could hand out personalized bottled water bearing this design, or even turn the design into a bumper sticker and hand out custom bumper stickers instead.

Much like the dinosaurs themselves, the possibilities for how you can use this label design are huge!

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’re planning a birthday party for your little princess, check out these gorgeous princess-inspired water bottle labels.

The one you see above is called “Princess Birthday” and features dreamy clouds and playful pink butterflies.  We also offer this design as well, called “Fairy Castle“, which features a hand-sketched castle a princess could easily call home:

[singlepic id=214 w=240 h=160 float=center]

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!

Here are some fun activity ideas for princess themed birthday parties to help you get inspired:

• 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!
• 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!
• 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!)

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!

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’re feeling slightly more crafty, you can also use favor boxes as well!

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’s favorite candies?  Other events call for homemade desserts, like perhaps the bride-to-be’s favorite recipe.

You can also fill favor bags and boxes with bath salts, teas, flower seeds, confetti, or small toys.  It’s very easy to find affordable favor packaging online, and there’s a wide range of styles and colors to choose from.

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.

Simply use custom stickers to seal your favor boxes or bags and you’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.

Our custom labels 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’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’s theme and colors exactly!

If you have any questions about using custom labels as favor gift bag seals, just let us know and we’ll be happy to help you out!

Planning birthday parties for boys is fun in its own way, but there’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.

With that in mind, take a look at the “Pink Bow” custom label design you see above.  Wouldn’t this be gorgeous for a little girl’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!

You could for example, order this design in the 2″ x 3″ 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’t feel special to be invited to a party with a specially sealed envelope?

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.

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!

We just love designs like these, that can be used in so many different ways for so many different events!

We did!

Jessica picked pink and green as the colors for this fête, and our Preppy Polka Dots 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…

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!

The thing we like about Jessica’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 weddings category!  We love it when customers take designs and use them creatively, thinking outside the box to find the best designs for their events.

Thanks so much to Jessica for letting us be part of this wonderful celebration!

If you have a lot of screaming or running at an adult’s birthday party, though, something’s probably gone terribly wrong.  Don’t worry about it, though, because we’ve got you covered.  To guarantee a terrific birthday party for a grown-up, here are the things you really need:

1. Great food.  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’t miss.
2. Great drinks. This doesn’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’s just because they look attractive and are easy to find.  Personalized water bottle labels and personalized beer labels look great wherever you put them!
3. Great favors. 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 funny.  An even better favor is a bottle of personalized wine.  Raid Trader Joe’s discount wine section, pick up enough wine to hand out one bottle per couple, and accessorize with a personalized birthday wine label.  It’s the perfect way to say “Thanks for celebrating!”

We just released some new birthday wine label designs specifically for adult birthday parties:

[singlepic id=8 w=240 h=160 float=center]The new “ISH” wine label design commemorates the attitude that age is just a number.  This is the perfect wine label for anyone who’s 30-ish, 90-ish, or anywhere in between.

[singlepic id=9 w=240 h=160 float=center]Our “Diamonds” 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!

Even if you don’t have a pinata at your next adult birthday celebration, that doesn’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!

Malikah, the winner of our February photo contest drawing, used custom water bottle labels to customize the 50th birthday celebration for Carl.  The elegant black, gold, blue, and white label design looked amazing at this party, and formed the perfect backdrop for the enlarged photo of Carl that guests were encouraged to sign.

We hold a contest every month for a $25 gift card.  All you have to do to enter is email us a picture (to Gallery@BottleYourBrand.com) of how you used our products in your event and you’re entered to win!  For full contest rules please visit here.  If you haven’t yet ordered from us, please peruse our gallery and see if any of those great ideas could work for you!
