Summer is here and it’s HOT! Drinkware is needed and appreciated year-round, but especially right now.

This trend is all about incorporating vibrant, bold and colorful items into our lives to boost moods and enhance the overall sense of well-being. Colors have a powerful influence on emotions and can evoke different feelings and reactions.

Here we recognize the psychological impact that colors can have and are encouraged to surround ourselves with hues that bring joy, positivity, and energy.

For example, bright and sunny yellows can evoke feelings of happiness and optimism. Refreshing blues can remind us of tranquil waters and a sense of calm. Tropical corals can bring a touch of excitement and vitality to our daily routines. These bold and vibrant colors have the ability to elevate our mood and make our drinking moments more enjoyable.

Kevin
962 | 9” Professional Frequent Flyer (page 2)
You could say I’m a sucker for nostalgic items. I can remember playing for hours in the neighborhood with these growing up. My grandsons have multiple flyers and play with them often. With summer upon us, now’s the perfect time to add this to your product mix for participating in parades, company picnics or other special outdoor festivities!
KG3000 | Giusti Shoe Bag (page 5)
This classy looking golf bag is made of durable Novohyde vinyl. It features lots of pockets and includes tees and a divot tool. It’s easy to transport with a convenient carry handle and also has a luggage tag. With a low 12 piece minimum it makes a great gift for hole prizes, door prizes and winning teams.
3882 | Golf Ball Cleaning Pouch (page 5)
Here’s an item that can be given to all participants in a golf tournament. I think these are the handiest golf items, other than clubs and balls. I always carry one. Clip it to your golf bag, golf cart or belt loop and it’s ready for use.
CL02 | Magnetic Power Clips (page 8)
This clip has hundreds of uses for homes and/or offices. We have multiple on the side of our refrigerator and usually one or more can be found inside keeping packages sealed. It features a solid power clip that has a strong magnet for super holding power!
52100 | Slash N Smash Emergency Car Tool  (page 10)
The Slash N Smash is a comprehensive emergency kit made to cut your seatbelt or break out your car window. You’ll be thankful to have this handy tool in the event that you need it. Talk to your insurance agents, car dealers, mechanics and/or tire dealers. After writing a policy or servicing a vehicle, suggest they give one to their customer or leave it in the vehicle.
PC22702 | Curvaceous Infinity Pencil (page 17)
This pencil has it all: a graphene tip, silver sprayed barrel and a metal clip that will put all other metal clips to shame. The best part – it doesn’t need sharpening or refilling; this pencil is infinite.

AC7006 | Coleman® Mesh Quad Chair (page 2)
This chair includes a cooling mesh back, mesh cup holder, strong steel frame, roomy seat and carrying strap for easy transportation (no carrying bag.) The branding sends a positive message partnered with a trusted brand like Coleman®. I won a chair similar earlier this year and I LOVE it. My children (ages 21 and 22) are both impressed with this chair and try to nab it before I do.
35011 | Chargecuterie (page 7)
The Chargecuterie is a sleek bamboo charging stand with a built-in wireless charger for phones and AirPods. It also has a spot to insert a smart watch charging puck (includes a silicone insert but the user must supply their own watch charger). Take advantage of the free set-up! This item looks stylish and straightforward to use. Most people have at least two items they charge daily and this allows for a tidy, attractive way to do it.
TOY-W | The Wedge Mobile Device Stand (page 7)
The Wedge is a fun non-techy tech piece. It takes up very little room on my desk, props my phone at the perfect angle to compliment my desktop screen. Each Wedge is hand sewn in the USA. This is a multifunctional mobile device stand that props and cleans, has plush microfiber color options available at no extra charge, full-color dye sublimation for vibrant graphics and unbeatable presentation.
R102 | Peeling Paring Knife (page 8)

Offering sustainable promotional products in your marketing campaign is important for several reasons:

1. Environmental Responsibility: Sustainable promotional products are made from materials that are eco-friendly and have a reduced impact on the environment. By offering these products, you demonstrate your commitment to environmental responsibility, which can help build your brand’s reputation as a socially responsible company.
2. Customer Perception: Consumers are becoming increasingly aware of environmental issues, and many are making purchasing decisions based on a company’s commitment to sustainability. Offering sustainable promotional products can help you connect with environmentally conscious customers and demonstrate that you share their values.
3. Brand Image: Offering sustainable promotional products can help improve your brand image and position your company as a forward-thinking, socially responsible organization. This can help attract and retain customers, as well as improve employee morale and attract top talent.

26247 | Collapsible Picnic Basket (page 2)
I have a very similar basket and I love it. Not only is it great for taking things to picnics, potlucks and award banquets but I haul it back and forth to family get togethers. It has a low minimum of 24 pieces and a built in bottle opener as well.
WHO-DB22 | Daybreak Digital Alarm Clock Sunrise Simulation (page 8)
Sunrise simulation transitions the light from dark to fully lit over a 20 minute duration leading up to the alarm time selected. The light source is designed to mimic natural dawn or morning light. Unlike traditional alarms that typically jolt people awake with a burst of loud, disorienting noise, dawn simulators can “enhance the wake up experience”.
100928-XXX | Happy Daylight Desk Lamp (page 12)
This daylight lamp is designed with 3 colors of light that will provide you with your daily boost of sunshine to help keep you energetic and focused. Sunlight regulates the cycles of our bodies and our moods. With people spending more time indoors these days, it’s important to make sure our bodies get what they need, and this daylight lamp is here to shine some light for you.
WDQ-L | Discovery 14 oz. Tumbler (page 19)
This 14 oz. double wall tumbler is made with innovative recycled materials to reduce waste. Air insulation creates a highly portable spill proof cup. Logos will stand out using their silver mirror precision laser engraving.
SBZSBS | ZipSip Tall Dye Sublimated Neoprene Can Cooler (page 20)
The world’s first adjustable drink holder. The cooler features two zippers with a canvas gusset adjusting to fit different size beverages. Holds slim cans, regular cans, long neck bottles, coffee drinks, pint glasses, energy drinks and solo cups.
30064 | Anywhere Belt Bag (page 22)
I have never been thrilled with fanny packs but I like the cross overs. This particular one can be worn as a fanny pack or across the chest, has a zipper main compartment, back zippered pocket and a 40” adjustable strap. Available in black, gray and navy blue at this time. Eventually should have in an additional 7 colors.

Erica
1805 | Storm Guard Water Resistant Backpack (page 6)
A must have for every college student! It is a great gift for incoming college students at orientation. Today’s kids are carrying expensive laptops for their college courses and certainly don’t need the expensive technology to get ruined. Also good for throwing in your backpack for hiking trips.
OM212BB | Microwavable Bowl Buddy (page 8)
Every household should have more than one of these—at least one per person. It helps protect hands from getting burned when heating up food in the microwave. The bowl buddy is large enough it could also be a plate buddy. The bowl buddy makes a nice gift. Also great for a bowl of ice cream.
FLT014 | Featherlite Universal Seat Belt (page 10)
This is a great feeling piece. When you’re short and your husband likes to have the seat belt all the way to the top – your neck has a tendency to get scratched. I really like this piece. Also great for golf and shoulder bags.
2010 | Stone State Paperweight (page 12)
These paperweights make a special award piece that can be given as a thank you for years of service or a retirement gift. The item is USA made right here in Iowa. Made from recycled materials in over 95 colors and a variety of patterns.
JT2 | Boogie Board® Writing Tablet™ | Compass Promos (page 12)
Reusable tablet is perfect for jotting down notes, lists and reminders. What’s nice about the Boogie Board is that it comes with an app to download notes/names/numbers, etc. that can be sent to the app on your phone or other smart device.
87-RP | Cord Buddy (page 21)
Help organize their cords! The cord buddy is perfect for a company with a fun or unique logo. It is less expensive than doing a custom stress reliever if trying to stay within a budget. A custom backer card can be created to help solidify a specific message such as launching a new product or website.

Over the last few years we’ve all learned how important it is to prioritize self care! We have products that take care of your customers and give back to others.

Here are a few reasons to add Personal Care Products to your mix:

1. Repetition. Personal Care products evoke all of your senses. When you hand out personal care products, you are are opening a door to allow recipients to experience your event/activity repeatedly every time they use that product.
2. Longevity and Usefulness. Personal care products are used anywhere from 2-10 times a day and will last anywhere from 3-12 months. You will not find this longevity and usefulness with other products for the same cost. Your  Message/Brand will be with the recipient for nearly a year.
3. Health and Wellness. During the pandemic, we learned that we must take care of ourselves to lead happier lives. When you hand out Personal Care products, you are telling your audience that you care about their health and wellness. This message carries a lot of weight in the eyes of the recipients.

Our suppliers have give-back programs that donate proceeds to local farmers, their community and honeybees. A percentage of annual profits for these items go back to support honeybees and beekeeping families.
