People might think I'm crazy for feeling this way, but I love going to the dentist! Maybe it's because I have been going to the same dentist my entire life and he doesn't make me swish that nasty stuff around my mouth because I threw up after using it when I was 10 or maybe it's because when I was 21, he gave me the very first appointment Monday morning after I passed out and landed on my face and my two front teeth were in a million tiny little pieces all over my mouth. Whatever the reason, I love going to the dentist and I love all the cool dental promotional products you can get.
Every time I go on vacation or on a weekend trip, I obsess about how to pack my toothbrush. My husband just throws his in a suitcase, but I worry about all the germs that will gather on the bristles and then in to my mouth. I usually end up putting it in a ziplock bag, which usually gets thrown away and then I have to try to find another one for the trip home. The Antibacterial Toothbrush Holder fixes that problem and is a lot more convenient than a plastic bag; plus it has a cool suction cup so you can attach it to the mirror.
I always used to laugh when people would tell me that before you get married it's important to find out if your potential spouse squeezes the toothpaste from the top or the bottom. I never gave it a second thought, thinking it really wasn't a big deal. But after a year of marriage, I have come to the realization that it is a big deal! My husband tells me over and over that he would be a much happier person if I could just learn to squeeze from the bottom. Maybe he can give me the Tube Winder for Christmas this year.

Blankets
My husband recently told me that I'm not allowed to buy any more blankets. Apparently, he thinks just because the entire hall closet is filled with blankets and we don't have any room for more blankets, that that is some sort of sign we don't ever need to buy another blanket again. I, on the other hand, believe you can never have too many blankets.
My favorite blanket I have found in the promotional products industry is the Big Sweatshirt Blanket. This particular blanket is made out of the same material as your favorite sweatshirt and is much bigger than most blankets available in the industry. It is the perfect blanket for curling up on the couch with a book or to watch a movie. Because it is so big, it also provides a large area to imprint your company logo.
Another blanket I think is really cool is the Sherpa Blanket. Being a huge fan of my fake Ugg boots, I love that this blanket is layered with the same Sherpa material. It's a very unique item and will definitely make your company logo memorable.

A Good Book
Two of my very favorite things are Christmas and books. I love curling up on the couch with a warm blanket next to the Christmas tree, watching the snow fall outside and reading a good story. Some of the most unique items I have found in the promotional advertising industry are books that can have a company logo either printed on the cover or a full page promo inserted inside the book.
One of my favorite books for the holiday season is The Autobiography of Santa Claus. I love this fictional tale of how Santa Claus came to be. Every year at Christmas time, I am reminded that no matter how old I get, there is a little girl inside of me that will always believe in Santa Claus. Another favorite is the classic How The Grinch Stole Christmas. Christmas isn't Christmas until I have read about the Whos down in Whooville. If I'm just looking for some feel good stories about my favorite time of year, I pull out A Cup of Comfort for Christmas.
Whether it's the holiday season or not, most people would appreciate a unique gift imprinted with a company logo such as a good book they can share with their family.

Blogging
In the last few months I have known about ten people who have started blogging. I have never been interested in starting a blog of my own, but after some encouragment from a couple of friends and a push from the owner of the company I work for, I've decided to join the blogging world.
I work for a promotional advertising company called American Promotions, Inc. I come from a family of professionals, but none of them have ever been involved in the business world, so this was a new experience for me. After graduating from Brigham Young University with a degree in Sociology and a minor in English, there weren't a whole lot of job offerings in my field. I decided to give promotional advertising a try and I have definitely enjoyed many aspects of my job.
One of my main job descriptions is to help build American Promotions website. I love finding new products to enter on the site and it is exciting to see companies choose to print their logo on a product I recommend to them. I will use this blog to share some of my favorite products and some of my thoughts related and unrelated to the promotional advertising industry.
