Victorias Secret Fashion Show Confetti

Did you see the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show Last Night?

It was awesome!

Usher opened the show with his typical cool.

The traditional lingerie was very much absent. The wings at the end were spectacular.

I loved the wings with the spider web backing and the randomly placed flowers.

As a huge Heidi Klum fan, I was thrilled to see how amazing she looked. I loved the wings she wore toward the end of the show. The reminded me of a giant red ribbon.

Okay, the stage...the silver confetti covering the entire stage looked fantastic. I'm proud to say that was from my company, Party Confetti.Com

We sell a lot of bulk confetti and often see it on television and movies. This particular glittery, silver confetti worked so well that I just have to brag about it.

Actually, maybe I should say the confetti that covered the "Runway"...a nod to Project Runway...instead of called it the stage. Project Runway is Heidi Klum's other amazing success. This silver confetti looks like large pieces of glitter. It has a consistency that made it not float away or make the models trip.

It took about 40 pounds of silver confetti to cover the stage. I was probably the only person watching that show who was much more interested in the confetti on the stage than the lingerie on the models.

You should have heard me squeal when Usher kicked some of the confetti into the air during his second song. Yay...

Just so you know, the folks we worked with to create this effect were incredible. We sent samples to New York, Paris and Miami. Within just a few days they'd reached a decision and placed their order. Once it arrived they not only let us know that it was going to work, but kept us updated and even reminded us two days before the show aired. We, of course, Tivoed the show and will probably watch it several times

Planning a Fall Harvest Party??

It's that time of year again. The leaves are all starting to change into beautiful colors and slowly fall to the ground. People are digging out those jackets from the back of their closets and everyone is slowly beginning to prepare for Old Man Winter. One of my favorite childhood memories was going to my Aunt's farm for her annual Fall Harvest Party. We would take hayrides on the tractor, bob for apples and of course, drink some warm apple cider. What would be a better time than now to plan your fall harvest party?

If you want more decorations than the just your average stuffed scarecrow, we've got what you need. Our autumn balloon is currently on clearance for only $4.99 each. These will definitely add that extra something special to your party, so make sure to order them while they last.

We also have tons of different styles of confetti for you to sprinkle on each table or to throw a couple in your invitations. Our autumn leaf confetti style, which is a mixture of different colored leaves, is our most popular. We also have apple confetti that you can sprinkle on your apple bobbing table. Or if you want to bring in a little extra autumn feeling to your Thanksgiving dinners, you can combine our cute turkey confetti with our acorn confetti to make a nice mix of the two. Be creative and don't make the planning stressful! It's all about having a good time!

Fraternity & Sorority Social Ideas

Hello fellow bloggers! My name is Amanda and I'm one of the sales associates here at Confetti Party Headquarters. I'm also a recent alumnae member of a very large International Sorority, Alpha Gamma Delta at California State University, Chico. Many of you may not know much about sororities or fraternities, but one of the fun events we like to plan are our socials and dances with other Fraternities or just dates of our choice. These are always fun events and a great way to get to know other people on campus.

One of my favorite themes for socials is Italian Wedding, where we elect a mock bride and groom for the night to "get married." We all wear funny costumes and it's always a blast. For this theme, my sorority has used a number of different decorations. One of my favorite styles of confetti to use is the Wedding cake confetti. They're adorable three-tiered wedding cakes that have so much detail, you would almost think they're real.

Some other themes my sorority likes to use are Mardi Gras, Casino Royale, and Rock 'n Roll.
We have so many styles to choose from that sometimes its hard to pick just one. My favorite Mardi Gras confetti to use is a mixture that has the words "Mardi Gras," masks and lots of colorful stars. These always add a little something extra to our events and really impress our guests.

We don't use our confetti just to decorate tables at dances either. Sometimes we decide to spruce up our balloons by adding some confetti to them. I like to put the prismatic silver stars into a balloon before I blow it up. It just gives it that extra special shine.

Also, I came up with the great idea to use confetti to decorate our house on an everyday basis. All of our coffee tables and end tables in our sorority house have glass coverings on them and every year we change all of the pictures under them. This year, I decided to spruce them up by adding a little bit of confetti on each table. I added the red rose confetti, because that is Alpha Gamma Delta's flower. I also threw in a few of the black stilletto high heels confetti to add a little girliness to it. They look great and it's another way to give your house a unique feeling. Whatever you decide to do, be creative!!

We're also hoping to get the greek alphabet soon as a part of our inventory, so keep looking for that!

Innovative Advertising Ideas, How to get your Christmas Card Noticed

With the economy making us all think twice about where we spend our money, it behooves us to
think about ways to get our message noticed.

When you mail your Christmas Cards this year think about being different. Companies receive lots of Cards and most are probably stamped with Seasons Greetings ABC Corportation.

Make your card stand out as soon as it's opened. If your company is a bank include dollar sign confetti or confetti that looks like hundred dollar bills. Cash always gets noticed.

For a Company that sells shoes...it doesn't matter whether you're Manolo Blahnki or Payless Shoes...tuck in some shoe confetti.

Another option is to speak more to the card recipient than to your image. This is too much work for a company like Google or IBM. For a smaller business it's a great way to stand out. Send houses confetti to realtors, airplane confetti to the travelers in your customer base and kitten confetti to cat lovers. Witheach of these, tuck in a few pieces of Christmas Confetti. It could be as simple as Merry Christmas or as specific as Angel Confetti.

Music

For a small music store in Florida you could tuck a few flamingo confetti along with a few pieces of Music Confetti into your card. Be creative, music stores in Arizona could add cactus confetti.

Sports

For a Sporting Goods Store in Texas add Texas Confetti and Football Confetti.

Beauty Shops, Hairdressers

Use Blowdryer Confetti, Lipstick Confetti, don't forget Snowflakes and HO HO HO Confetti.

I'd love to have you comment on your ideas for your business. What will you do to get your mailers noticed this Holiday Season?

Be Creative, Get Noticed.

Amanda thinks the Black Widow Spider Confetti is freaky....Amanda is our intrepid, hardworking College Student just starting her senior year a California State University

Keely likes the Witches Brew Confetti...will her little brothers and sisters be scared

?

For me, the Haunted Mansion Confetti is way cool...I'm terrified of Haunted Houses...a little freudian maybe?

Boo...Laura thinks the Boo Confetti looks like it's dripping blood and since Halloween is her favorite Holiday we have to respect her expert opinion.

Evan likes the owl confetti in the bats and ghosts confetti

Whatever your favorite, stock up on lots of candy for the kiddies...I like Snickers

Confetti for Fall

Autumn leaves are turning and when we think of autumn confetti we often think first of leaf confetti. And yes, that is the most popular fall confetti on the market. But wait, there's more

Apple Confetti for your Johnny Appleseed Day Celebrations and For Back to School Scrapbooking. ABC Confetti and Number Confetti work well for Back to School too.

One of my favorites is Acorn Confetti. Thinking about the beautiful fall leaves and the squirrels gathering the acorns takes me back to my childhood in rural New York State.

I remember the adults worrying about the squirrels getting into the attic while the children hoped they would.

Before you know it Halloween will be here. There are several new Halloween Confetti shapes this year

• Witch Confetti, not too scary and really cute



• Pumpkin Confetti, Bright Metallic Orange Jack o Lanterns



• Spider Confetti, don't forget to order spider webs

Back to School, An Apple for the Teacher

Well lots of schools started back up this week. In our little town in Northern California, the elementary schools started today in 103 degree heat. Yikes

I swear when I was a kid we didn't start until September. Thank goodness for A/C. The man who invented that should have a national holiday. Who did invent air conditioning? Well I decided to find out. His name is Willis Carrier. When was air conditioning invented? Well his patent was approved in 1906.

So, those lucky little kids have nice cool air to learn their ABC's and since this is a blog about confetti and we don't happen to have air conditioning confetti you'll have to check out our ABC confetti instead. Seriously folks, I needed a theme and it's hot and it's the first day of school.

Lest the math teachers and math lovers among you protest, we do have number confetti too.

In fact we have so many numbers that it's impossible to show them all.

And for the teachers pets we have shiny red apple confetti. Sprinkle it on your teachers desk...oops don't say where you got the idea

More tomorrow and don't forget your homework

Barack Obama for President

I believe it's time for a change in politics. I don't dislike John McCain but I don't think America needs another Republican president.

2008 Beijing Olympics, Celebrate with Sports Confetti and Balloons

The 2008 Beijing Olympics will be here in almost one week and I'm sure most of you are getting very excited for it! The history of the Olympics is truly fascinating. Some form of the Olympics was first recorded by the Ancient Romans around 776 B.C in Olympia, Greece. The first official modern day Olympics as we know it today was held in 1859 also near Athens, Greece. What a coincidence!
This years Olympics is officially known as the Games of the XXIX Olympiad. Almost 10,500 athletes are expected to compete in 302 events within 28 different sports! Did you know that, according to the Official Olympics Website, the USA is the leading winner of all time Olympic medals with 2,197 medals won altogether?! So... what can you do to celebrate this huge worldwide event? Throw an Olympics party, of course!
The top Olympic Sports this year are basketball, gymnastics, soccer, track & field and swimming. We have tons of styles of sports confetti to make your Olympic celebration a perfect hit! This year, coincidentally, the Olympics will start on 08-08-08! Since the numbers of this years Olympics are so simple, you have an easy theme to work with! These awesome huge zero and eight number balloons in blue, red, gold and purple are the perfect decoration for your Olympics party.

How to Celebrate a 100th Birthday

Turning 100 is a major, major milestone. This year alone over 60,000 Americans will celebrate their 100th birthdays. By the middle of this century New York Life estimates that there will be almost one Billion Centarians. So how do we celebrate these very special people in our lives?
For starters, have a party. No one should reach 100 and not have a party. Your theme is simple, 100 years of life. Pick an invitation and sprinkle 100 confetti in it. Available in gold or bright rainbow metallic.
Inflate Giant Number Balloons to create the number 100 and place behind the head table. The numbers 1 and Zero come in Gold,Silver,Blue,Red, Purple and Pink. They look amazing and you can have pictures taken in front of them.
For Centerpieces take a sand weight, add a number 100 spray, tie a few latex balloons to the top and you're good to go. It's unique, fast easy and best of all looks way more expensive that it is.

Chocolate Chip Cookies

Did you know that May 14 is National Chocolate Chip Day
Where was the first chocolate chip cookie made?
The Toll House Restaurant in Wakefield Massachussetts
When was the first chocolate chip cookie made?
It was made in 1930
Who invented the chocolate chip cookie?
Ruth Wakefield, who with her husband, ran the Toll House Inn

Curious person that I am I decided to find out. It's no accident that chocolate chip cookies are referred to as toll house cookies. They were first made at a restaurant called the Toll House.

How did Nestle Chocolate Chips end up with the recipe on their familiar bright yellow bag?
The astute Mrs Wakefield approached Nestle and partnered with them, her recipe, their chocolate chips.

Create a Sticker

Wow, I just discovered something really cool

It's a sticker maker. It's made by a company called Xyron

You put any shape or size of Confetti in it, squeeze down and you get a sticker of

the confetti. You could use it on envelopes, signs, posters...anything you craft with.

It would be perfect for scrapbooking. I love the fact that you can create whatever you want

Confetti Collections

Wow, Can you believe it's almost April? I just got back from a great conference with everything party. I learned a lot which I'll share in the coming days.

Today I want to share my ideas about Graduation.

Graduates from Kindergarten through PHD programs deserve to be commended.

Is there anything cuter than a kindergartner wearing a paper graduation cap and waving to Mommy and Daddy?

I love the exuberance they feel and encourage you to commemorate it. Confetti is now offering an incredible selection of graduation balloons.

Graduation Gift Idea

Pick up a cute little plush animal and tie a grouping of balloons to it for the perfect gift for the little ones

Graduation Invitation Idea

If you're mailing invitations for your Middle School or High School Graduation be sure to tuck in some 2008 Confetti.

So many colors are available this year. You could combine 2008 confetti and graduation cap confetti in your school colors.

Girl Scouts Swaps

I talked to a nice lady yesterday about Girl Scout Swaps
For those of you who don't know, (I didn't), these are little hand made
gifts that girl scouts swap with other troops, troop leaders etc.

They often represent something about the giving Girl Scouts home area

The lady who educated me is Deb Demer
Some of the examples she gave me, representing her home in Texas, are

"Deep in the Heart of Texas"
Materials:
3X3 zip loc bag (size you often see for small jewelry)
dirt, Texas dirt of course
Texas shaped Confetti
Cactus Shaped Confetti
Cowboy Hat Shaped Confetti
a small piece of twine tied like a lasso
Heart Confetti
Instructions for creating the "swap"
Put a small amount of dirt in the bag
add Texas Confetti, Cactus Confetti, Cowboy Hat Confetti, the lasso and 1 Heart Confetti
Close and label "Deep in the Heart of Texas"
Hang a tag on it with your name and troop #

You could adapt this for your home state

For instance if you live in Florida

Materials would include
Sand
Flamingo Confetti
Seashell Confetti
Palm Tree Confetti
Sun Confetti

A creative name for this one might be
"Relaxing on the Floriday Beach"

Wedding Confetti

Today I'm going to talk about wedding confetti.
There's so much more to wedding confetti than hearts.
Just a few years ago we saw maybe a dozen styles of wedding related confetti.
Now, there are over 100

Starting with the Bachelorette Party
You could use big funky lips in the invitations
Sprinkle Stiletto High Heel Shoe Confetti all over the Party Site...if you're bar hopping tuck it in the pockets of the guys you meet...they'll feel included and you know they'll remember the night when they find it in their pocket the next morning. One of my really fun brides traded "kisses"...confetti of course...for shots. She ran out of confetti 2 hours into the party.

For the Shower:
Tuck Bride to Be confetti inside the invitation
Sprinkle Engagement Ring Confetti and Heart Confetti, in the wedding colors, on the cake table and throughout the party space...don't forget the bathroom counters.

For the Reception:
Sprinkle Just Married Confetti on the Tables..Bring it out from the centerpiece to the water glasses. It doesn't look like too much nor does it look stingy.

Add Bride and Groom Silhouette Confetti to the Thank-you Notes
Be Creative...

Have everyone pre-vote for the major categories and have a prize for the closest guess to the most wins...a bottle of Champagne is perfect

Dena

Yesterday I spoke with an incredible nice young woman from Pennsylania

Her name is Dena...unfortunately I didn't get her fiances name but he's one lucky guy.

Dena was warm, articulate and obviously in love with her groom

Her colors struck me as being an amazing combination. She's using ivory and brown with a touch of turquoise and hot pink

In Dena's honor I've set up a one week discount. Just enter DENA at check out for an extra $5.00 off your order

With Dena's permission I'll keep you updated on her wedding progress.

Who Invented Confetti?

Confetti was actually first used in Paris...France that is...
in 1891

Someone was taking down the decorations after a party at a really big theatrical revue
called "le Casino de Paris"

They decided to cut up the decorations and drop them on the guests the next evening.

No one had seen Confetti before and were enthralled to the point of giddiness.

The next day, Newspapers in Paris, enthused about the "Renaissance of French Gayety"

Within 4 Years Confetti was being made by machine and being sold all over the world

How do I know...I collect everything I can about Confetti

The cover of the "Scientific American" Magazine...of which I have a copy...has a picture of the first Confetti machine.
It was such a big deal that it was the cover story. The picture, actually a pen and ink sketch, was done by the famous artist Louis Malteste. He wasn't famous yet but became famous within a few years for his "naughty" posters of Can Can dancers and ladies of the night.

Malteste, nickname Zig, was a friend and contemporary of Toulouse Latrec.

Welcome to Granite State News The Granite State News - Feb 07 5:39 AM
Fifth-grader Nick Rogers (left) won the Paul School Spelling Bee for fourth- through eighth-graders on Wednesday, Jan. 30, with the word confetti. He will be heading to the regional spelling bee on March 1 at the Rochester Elks Lodge.

We here in the world of Confetti salute Nick Rogers...we think that there is no more important word to spell correctly than Confetti...So Nick Rogers, 5th grader, our hats are off to you. You are awesome!!

Just How Much?

Do you how much confetti was thrown during the New York Giants Victory Parade?

An astonishing 36.5 tons....thats 7300 pounds of confetti

Whoa! Aren't you glad you didn't have to pick that up.
According to the New York Times this is much lower than previous ticker tape parades.
The all time high was on VJ day...5,600 tons of confetti where rained down on the celebrating serviceman and citizens.

There will be plenty of opportunities for confetti this month.

just my thoughts on confetti today

My First Day

This is my first day blogging.

I own a website where I sell Confetti.

Confetti started with my daughter who collected Confetti.

In 1986, when she was 12 years old, I decided to open a Party Store.

All of my "adult" family and friends brainstormed like mad to find

the perfect name that was all about party. My daughter, Laura, threw out the name and the rest is history. In early 1992 she was a freshman at UC San Diego. She kept telling me about this new thing. She called it the information super highway. It took me until 1994 to actually buy a domain name and put up a one page website. It was one page of text just telling about all of the party supplies we carried. Within 12 hours I had my first sale. It was angel confetti.

Since then I've focused on Confetti and all things related. My website is http://www.partyconfetti.com/

If you take a look at it you'll see that Confetti is my passion.
