I hope you had a great Easter and didn’t eat too much chocolate, you can have a bit of breather now as St Patrick’s Day, valentine’s day and Easter all happened early in the year this year. However, the Queen is turning 90 on the 21^st of April so there are undoubtedly going to be jubilee-style parties. We have Union-Flag themed flags and bunting, we actually put these on sale a while ago and totally forgot about them! We’re going to leave them on sale so grab a bargain while you can.

Speaking of bunting, Oaktree have introduced a whole range of aged-birthday bunting in the pink and blue to match their range of banners and balloons. We know these are going to sell really well as the banners fly off the shelves constantly. This is a really good opportunity for you to up-sell as a decorator as it just adds that little bit extra.

We’ve not stocked a lot of confetti before but are starting to bring more and more ranges in. We have a couple new ones from Amscan and Qualatex but also this strangely-named unicorn confetti from Northstar. This is very in fashion and is made from multiple neon coloured paper and bits of gold that would be great to put inside balloons or on tables.  Speaking of Northstar the new script balloons are in with us YAY! We have the yay balloon and the rose-gold “love” balloon that everybody has been waiting for.

We have stocked the for a while now but are starting to stock the dishes after a few of you have requested them from us! These were made for the floristry industry and are for making table decorations as you wrap flowers around the stems. The balloon industry has taken them on-board as well now as them make perfect stands for balloon table decorations as well. The dishes come in 6, 9, 11 & 15 inches in size and the pedestals come in 31, 21 and 14 inches
