Rainbow Bear Sweet Tooth Gift

Have you seen our Rainbow Bears?  Cute and cuddly, they measure 18cm and are available with the purchase of our Rainbow Bear Sweet Tooth Gift.

Our bears come in a myriad of rainbow colours and they are always a popular choice (especially pink and white as we are currently sold out of those two colours) - and we think mum will love them (and your best friend, sister, aunt, cousin and granny).

As sweet as our stuffed bears are, the gift is only made sweeter by a delicious half kilo mix of lollies.

Here is the drool-worthy list:

• Mars M&M's
• peanut M&M's
• freckles
• clinkers
• caramel choc buds
• milk choc buds
• Allens jellybabies
• snakes
• raspberries
• F1 race cars
• pineapples
• milk bottles
• strawberry & creams
• cobbers
• white chocolate freckles
• milk chocolate bullets
• dark chocolate bullets
• Allens jaffas
• white chocolate raspberry bullets,
• honey bears
• chocolate pineapple chunks
• red frogs
• green frogs
• Trolli gummi bears
• Allens fantales

We have heard many an interesting tale of recipients who go to great lengths NOT to share their delicious noodle box of goodies.  No surprise there, right?

So whether you are buying for Mother's Day or for another occasion (or just for yourself), you can order with peace of mind knowing that all of our gifts are securely packed in a cardboard box with tissue paper and gift wrapped in colourful Australian made wrapping paper.

We love our bears - every one of them and it is so hard to pick a favourite.  What colour will you order?

A Poem For Mum

Mother's Day is coming up soon - for those who celebrate the Australian version of the day, this year it falls on Sunday 11 May.

Our mums do so much for us and more often than not we only realise just how much they sacrifice for us as we grow older or even become mums ourselves.

Here is a poem that I found online which I thought was very apt:

Thank You Mum

I know how often I took you for granted
when I was growing up.
I always assumed you'd be there
when I needed you...
and you always were.
But I never really thought about what that meant
till I got older and began to realize
how often your time and energy were devoted to me.
so now, for all the times I didn't say it before,
thank you, Mom...I love you so very much!

If you are feeling creative this Mother's Day why not write your mum a poem of your own.  If you find your words somehow are not a reflection of your feelings, then maybe one of our gifts will suffice.

We have an interesting selection of Mother's Day gifts including our Afternoon Tea Hamper and Cravings - Pick Your Mix which I am sure your mum will love.  Don't forget to order a special little something for yourself if you are a mum too (or even if you aren't) - after all you deserve it too!

Happy Mother's Day to all the mums out there.

Reasons people send gifts

During the last 9 years we've sent out a lot of gifts for birthdays, probably one of the most common reasons for people sending a gift actually! I think that it's great that we can help people with their gift giving needs and love the fact that with the internet it makes it so much easier and faster! Quite a few of our gifts are 'oh no I forgot such and suchs birthday' I need it delivered FAST, please please please. We do everything we can but there are times when it is just impossible for us to deliver on the date requested, especially when it is needed the same day but it's going to Perth - just can't do it. In these instances we let our customer know that we are unable to deliver on their requested and do suggest that if they require same day delivery to look for a business that is on the same area or even to try a florist. Florists are generally all linked by larger companies (such as Interflora) so use local businesses to do the order requests. Wouldn't it be great if Rainbow Designs had little shops scattered all over Australia!!



Another popular reason for people sending a gift is to say 'sorry' - whether it be for saying something not very nice, for forgetting a special day or for not ringing more often. A little box of chocolates is a great way to say sorry and I'm pretty sure you'll be forgive for whatever it is you did!

 



Anniversaries have been celebrated a lot with a big box of lollies - from 3 month anniversaries right up to golden and everything in between. It could also be the anniversary of buying a house or getting a job - so many special dates to remember and celebrate!



Main events such as Easter, Mother's Day, Father's Day and Christmas can always guarantee a flurry of orders - generally last minute! It can have me worried at times thinking what terrible sales we've had but them low and behold in they all come, with only moments to spare. Sometimes I do wish people were a bit more organised :-)

 

 



So, who's birthday have you forgotten??

Until next time, share a box of chocolates with someone you love
