Halloween Displays

Wednesday, October 6th, 2010

The Halloween season is one of the best times of the year when you can just let your creativity go wild! With a few scary or seasonal signature items added to the mix, you can create displays that will come alive so that your customers will take notice and perhaps purchase everything on the table! In the above photos we wanted to provide you with a little inspiration.

Colors of the Season

We have taken our creative license to encourage you to embrace the colors of the season. While orange and black are traditional Halloween colors, we also feature our citrus green paper shopping bags with orange tissue paper, black paper shopping bags with canary yellow tissue paper and our burnt orange paper shopping bags with black tissue paper. All of the bags featured are 16×6x12″ bags.

We called upon the spirit of Edgar Allen Poe’s classic The Raven to create a fun display featuring our orange and black bags and tissue along with fun black birds in various stages of flight and rest.


The Raven Tabletop Display

To create our raven display, you can use a round display table or any flat surface. Place a large piece of burlap fabric to cover the top. Alternate the bag colors and tissues on the diagonal or whatever formation you would like. Place fabric spider webs from the top of the bag to the table. Tear small sections and stretch the webs for the most realistic result. The webs will generally stay attached to any fabric you use. If they do not, simply tape them to the table and cover with any item that you are using for your display. Next we added a Gothic inspired candle stick with a round candle at the front of the display. We finished off the look by placing the black bird on the top of each bag and on the table in front of the bags. And finally we added some corked viles  filled with food coloring tinted water. Now you have a complete look for your store that will delight your customers and truly inspire.

We would love to see displays that you have created. Feel free to send them to us so that we can show them off!

Do I want to offer special gift bags?

Gift bags are a wonderful way of conveying to the person that you are purchasing a gift for that they were well thought of and appreciated. 

We have all types of bags available that can easily be transformed into a gift bag worthy of praise by the person buying the gift as well as the person receiving it.

Please take a moment to watch our video below demonstrating how to create a custom gift bag to take away with the merchandise in your store and set your store on a course to really stand out this holiday season!

 

Whatever you decide to do, whether it is to offer special merchandise bags or gift bags, make sure that you include Store Supply Warehouse in your master plan to get stocked up and ready for the hectic holiday seasons ahead!

Will I offer gift wrapping services?

Will I offer gift wrapping services?

This is a question you may have reflected upon more than one occasion. Gift wrapping is a service that you may want to add that can potentially increase your sales for the holiday season and future sales going forward.

More and more retailers are doing away with gift wrapping and not everyone wants to wait in long lines at the mall for it either. You can really stand out by making this service available in your store this year.

We certainly can help you with this as we offer a wide array of gift wrap, star bows, ribbon and our newest addition raffia!

Monday, we will be “wrapping” up the series with our last topic discussing specialty gift bags. As always feel free to post your comments or other suggestions because we love to hear from you.
