The post-Christmas lull is giving way to the back to school frenzy, and Yayme! have a wide variety of items to make the transition from beach to classroom a breeze!
With pencil cases and lunchboxes in a great range of colours for boys and girls, they are personalised with your child’s name to ensure that these everyday items are never mistaken or left behind. And personalised labels for all those extras are a must!
Check out our full range of back to school items on our website.
Our offices will close on Friday 21 December 2012 and will re-open on Monday 7 January.
Animals really are part of the family, so it’s important not to forget them at Christmas time.
According to Belfasttelegraph.co.uk, “Britain’s shoppers are more likely to buy gifts for their pets than they are for their grandparents this Christmas… According to a report by SAS and Verdict… 15.8% of 10,000 shoppers surveyed said they were buying presents for their pets, compared to the 14.3% buying for grandparents.”

If you like to get creative, Martha Stewart has some great ideas for handmade Pet ID tags. These are rather simple to make with Shrinky Dink sheets, decorative scissors, a hole punch and the template which is available on her website.
This modern ‘cat condo’ from gifts.com is stylish and functional. Cats love to climb, scratch and sleep in their condo, and replacement pads are available so that you can keep it looking fresh and new.
For a more personal approach, Yayme! have fashionable Pet Christmas Stockings with an appliqué paw print and are personalised with your pets name. You can fill these with all your furbaby’s favourite goodies to enjoy at Christmas time.
Whatever gift you chose for your pet this Christmas, the most important gift you can give your pet is love! We hope you and your four legged friend enjoy a wonderful Christmas together.

Managing Director Vicky Solopotias shares her experience of cooking as a child.
“I come from a migrant Greek heritage. I have had the good fortune of being brought up with organic home grown vegies, a front yard full of fruit trees and the fridge constantly being stocked with home made spanakopita, tzatziki, cabana, stuffed pumpkin flowers as well as spit roasted lamb Easter celebrations.
I didn’t appreciate this terribly much as a young child and yearned for vegemite sandwiches and lunch orders with party pies and sausage rolls. My mother firmly stood her ground and would never allow me to buy processed foods, so my lunches were full of home baked bread with feta cheese and home grown tomatoes, grilled lamb and roasted vegetables…ughh how lucky was I!
I attempted my first pancake one Saturday morning, I wanted to cook breakfast for my Dad before he went off to work, I followed the recipe precisely…except for how much batter was to be used for each pancake. I poured the whole lot in and made one massive pancake!!
Bless my Dad, he ate the entire serving and told me it was the best pancake he had ever had.
Food and cooking is still an integral party of my family and upbringing. This culture has flowed onto my children’s upbringing and culture.”

Did you know we did stint at Cranbourne shopping centre?
The Yayme! team set up a stall, the last week in July, near the food court at the shopping center, deep in the heart of the Victorian South-East suburbs.
We started the week with a huge stack of fliers, competition entry slips and Yayme! name stickers for the little ones – all designed by our fantastic and talented designer. Our stall was chock-full of sample personalised products.
The idea of the stall was to promote the Party Plan side of the business by recruiting passionate adults who were interested and to catch the eye of the astute shopper.
By the end of the week almost all of the fliers and stickers were gone, and we had pages full of emails from people who were interested in being a consultant, or hosting a Yayme! party. The sales in personalised products were just a very appreciated bonus!
On the last day at Cranbourne, we pulled a name out of a hat to draw the winner of the competition – and the lucky winner was awarded with $150 worth of free personalised gifts from Yayme!
The Cranbourne shopping center project was a blast for the Yayme! team, and we considered it to be a great accomplishment. A litre of teamwork, a cup of planning and brainstorming, a teaspoon of stress and a bucket of optimism – made to be a recipe for success!
