Shopped 'til I Dropped!!!

Back from Atlanta... The fall and holiday market had so many great things!I shopped for three days looking for and putting together tons of gift ideas, themed decorations, gift basket goodies and invitation and party ideas.

I stopped in the Tervis Tumbler showroom to look at new insulated tumblers (one of my all time favorite gifts to give) and was lucky enough to meet the Tervis Tumbler catalog cover model....what a hottie! I think I actually doubled my order after meeting him and taking a couple of pictures! If this doesn't make you thirsty....

While in the Tervis showroom I ordered the new Disney collection tumblers for kids. They are super cute and fun tumblers with Disney characters ~ Woody, Buzz Lightyear, Donald, Daffy Duck, Mickey and Minnie Mouse, lots of princesses and more. I'm so excited about the new Disney line and have I decided to have a Disney Tumbler party at The Perfect Pair! It's scheduled for September 18th. So, save the date! We will actually have Buzz Lightyear and a princess meet the kids and take pictures with them.

I also decided to order the new wedding album and personalized stationery albums from Lilly Pullitzer. these albums are gorgeous! Full of different shapes, bright colors and fonts for invitations, stationery and stickers. If you are a preppy pink and green girl, you're going to love it!


Virginia Tech, JMU and UVA fans are going to love the new napkins, coolers, totes and ceramic pottery that is coming for tailgate season. The Perfect Pair started carrying a few collegiate gift items at the end of the school year for graduation ~ embroidered key chains, tumblers and stationery. It really did well, so I was on the hunt for some new, unique and cute (a must) items. All of the items are available in a lot of other schools. There will also be items for tailgating that don't have school names on them ~ folding chairs, picnic baskets, coolers, insulated wine and beer totes and more.

Everyone should plan on gaining at least 10 pounds this holiday season! There were so many yummy treats... Chocolates, cookies, cheeses, crackers, popcorn, coffees, cocos, teas, cakes ~ a little sweet and savory. And I ordered it all! Keep The Perfect Pair in mind for all of your holiday gift baskets. Stop in and taste some of the treats, we always have samples available.

New vinyl stickers for anything, monogrammed tees, personalized flags and door mats,
a new lotion and soap line and tons and tons of personalized papers are just a few more things that will be added to The Perfect Pair's collection of gift giving goodies.

I am probably most excited to start decorating for the holidays! Yes...they are right around the corner!! Halloween gift giving and decorating is going to be the best this year. So many "spooky" and fun things. Witch socks to cover your dining room table legs, witch hats, ghoulish koozies, great hostess and party favors are just a few of the new items coming in. The Perfect Pair will be showing off the cutest pink Christmas tree for the display window this year. It will probably be our prettiest and most "perfect" holiday window! I am so inspired by all of the amazing decorating ideas that I saw (and took pictures of.)

Stop by to see what's new. You might even get to help us open boxes as they come in!
