5 Printing ideas for the party season « Back to list

If there ever was a holiday that required decoration, it’s Christmas. A time of colour, creativity and craft; Christmas requires print by the bucket load. We’ve devised our top 5 printing ideas for your home and your business to give you a head start on our favourite time of the year.

1. Invitations:

Having a Christmas party can be a competitive business. With so many parties and events going on, you will need to make an impact with a fantastic invite. You should think about personalising your invite with an image of you and your partner or family members or creating a festive shaped invite like below. This will make your invite memorable and people will be more likely to attend! If you are having a Christmas party this year, personalised invites are a great way to show your character and get everyone into the Christmas spirit.

2. Stickers:

Whether you want to make your own made Christmas crackers or want to give all your guests a name badge, stickers are a great tool for icebreaking and will be a great laugh around the Christmas dinner table. In addition to being a great Christmas tool for the home, it also works in the business world. If you are a business owner, nothing will spread Christmas cheer like some stickers for your customers. It’s an original, quirky and relatively cheap way to advertise your business this Christmas. To find out more about the benefits of stickers and labels all year round, click here.

3. Posters:

Posters are more for the business environment than the home. If you’re thinking of great ways to decorate your establishment then Christmas posters are the answers, either outside or inside. They are cheap, reusable and won’t take up lots of space. You can use posters to advertise Christmas offers or even just to spread some Christmas cheer. Whatever you decide, ensure you use high quality paper and print to get the best from your poster.

4. Roll up banner stands:

If you really want to get your customers into the Christmas spirit, there’s nothing better than a big friendly welcome from a great looking, high quality roll up stand (sometimes called pull up or roller stands). You can use a roll up stand inside your store for special Christmas offers or you can simply wish your customers a very happy Christmas. And there’s more! If you can’t decide what you would like to print and you don’t have the budget for two roll up stands, you can go for a double sided roll up stand instead. So, you can advertise your offers on one side and wish your customers a happy Christmas on the other, allowing your roll up stand to do all your talking for you.

5. Menus:

If you own a business in the food industry, it’s absolutely vital that you attend to your clientele with Christmas cheer. A Christmas menu is expected in your establishment and it is a great way to advertise the very best of your services. Invest in high quality Christmas menu’s to highlight your professionalism and your Christmas spirit. Follow our guide to designing a Christmas food leaflet to get the very best from your menu.
