Top 5 Holiday Gifts from FLOMO for Creative Tweens

As we enter the holiday season, many people are looking for gift ideas for creative tweens. If your child or a child you know loves to make art, crafts, or experiment with new things, here are five gifts that will keep them entertained and inspired. From a new set of art supplies to a fun crafting kit, these craft- and art-related presents from FLOMO are sure to please any creative youngster.

And to prove we aren’t just making this up, we brought in an expert - a 10-year-old tween who absolutely loves all forms of arts and crafts! She was more than ready to try out all five of the products and give us her opinions. Read on to get all the details!

1 - Paint Your Own Ornaments Kit

About the Product:

This gift is the most festive and allows tweens to creatively decorate their own Christmas ornaments to hang on the tree and admire for years to come. The set includes ten different ornaments in the cutest holiday designs, like Santa, a snowflake, a Christmas tree, and a Christmas stocking.

It is a full DIY kit, which means it also provides tweens with a paintbrush and six paint pots in all of the basic colors they’d need to paint their ornaments. Everything they need in one easy-to-wrap box!

The Tween Review:

Our tween tester loved the variety of Christmas ornament shapes to choose from in this kit, as well as the fact that it comes with enough ornaments for her to keep some for her Christmas tree, and personalize some to give to her friends as Christmas gifts! The back of the ornaments provides the perfect place to write the date and who the ornament is for.

She also commented on how smooth the surfaces of the ornaments are, which makes for an ideal canvas for the paints. And speaking of the paints, she appreciated that they aren’t too runny or thin, and instead are the perfect thicker consistency to cover the ornaments in one coat. Lastly, the level of detail on the ornaments is just right. This memory-making kit is a win!

2 - Acrylic Paint Sets, Brushes, and Canvas

About the Product:

For the little Picassos out there who want a more open-ended painting experience, this acrylic paint set is perfect. Not only does this allow for a bit more imagination and creative expression, but there are tons of colors to choose from! Forty-eight to be exact: twenty-six basic colors, six fluorescent, eight metallic, and eight glitter colors. The paints are great on a multitude of materials, including paper, wood, or canvas. You can also get smaller paint sets, in the color of choice 10 pastels, 10 glitters, or 10 fluorescent as an add-on gift!

Speaking of canvas, don’t forget to include a couple in your gift, so your tween can get started right away! We are loving canvases in unique shapes - arches and rounds are particularly trendy in home decor, party decor, and design these days. This pack comes with two!

Lastly, you’ll want to add some brushes of different sizes and shapes to cover all of their artistic needs. And you can even make those fun and festive with glitter handles and iridescent rainbow handles!

The Tween Review:

The handles of the paintbrushes were an immediate hit with our tween tester. She loved how the iridescent rainbow brushes reminded her of mermaids, and using the glitter brushes with glitter paint added to the fun. In her words, “You can never have too much glitter!”.

She was also thrilled by the number of colors included in this paint set. When asked whether she preferred regular, pastel, fluorescent, metallic, or glitter colors, she begrudgingly picked pastels…but was relieved by the fact that she doesn’t have to choose since this set has them all!

As expected, she enjoyed the uniqueness of the round canvases, which instantly inspired her to paint things like planets and landscapes.

3 - Gel Pens and Journal

About the Product:

Remember the gel pen boom of the late 90s and early 2000s? As nostalgic products become more and more popular, we are seeing an increase in the popularity of gel pens again, making this a terrific gift for the trendy tween. Not only are they beginning to dress in Y2K style, but they are also writing in it as well!

This set comes with a whopping sixty total quick-drying, medium-point pens in a variety of bold and bright colors. Pair it with a journal and let your tween express themselves in colors to match any and all moods (of which tweens often have many!).

The Tween Review:

From the moment she pulled them out of the gift wrap, our tween tester was excited by the beauty of the motivational journal cover, reminding her that she is “simply magical”. She also remarked on the vast variety of gel pen colors, as well as how vibrant they all are. None of those boring ink pen colors are here! This is all about allowing for creative expression.

After testing them out in the journal, she was impressed by how easily they write and contributed that to the well-flowing ink as well as the smoothness of the journal paper. When she was done, she appreciated being able to keep the journal closed with its included band (privacy, please!), and that she can keep all her pens organized and together in their convenient packaging.

4 - Marker Set and Sketchbook

About the Product:

If your tween is more of an artist than a writer, a great twist on the pen and journal tween gift idea is the marker set and sketchbook. This pack of twenty-four non-toxic, acid-free, quick-dry alcohol markers packs a double punch, in that they are dual-sided. One side features a chisel tip, which is great for thicker lines and coloring in larger areas, and the other is a fine tip - perfect for outlining and writing. It’s like getting forty-eight markers for the price of twenty-four!

They come in a convenient and stylish wooden storage box, with a lid that also serves as a clipboard for holding drawing paper. Talk about double-duty and practical! Paired with a motivational sketchbook, this gift idea is sure to inspire and please.

The Tween Review:

What stood out most about the markers to our tween tester was how convenient the storage case is. She talked about how easy it would be to take the markers “on the go”, and use them anywhere, thanks to the clipboard top. No more losing your favorite colors or digging through a container trying to find the right one - every time she was done using a marker she replaced it into its helpful assigned slot and picked out the next one.

When it came to the sketchbook, she loved that it is hard-cover and spiral bound, yet the pages are easy to tear out, giving her the option of keeping her artwork safe in the sketchbook or removed to hang or gift to family and friends. The fact that it lays flat when open really made it easy to draw to her heart’s content without having to struggle to keep it open.

She also had to try using the clipboard and approved of its easy-to-use design and sleek surface.

5 - Arts & Crafts Kit

About the Product:

For the creative tween who loves all sorts of crafts, an arts and crafts kit is the best gift. They don’t want to be limited in their creativity, and with this kit, they won’t have to be! This do-it-all kit includes a wide variety of colorful craft materials, including pompoms, pipe cleaners, feathers, craft sticks, foam sheets, foam shapes, googly eyes, buttons, mini clothespins, sequins, and gems. It even includes scissors - a crafting essential. That’s an amazing one thousand two hundred and eighty-four total pieces, all packed up into a convenient and sturdy carrying case.

The Tween Review:

In the words of our tween tester, “This is enough to keep me entertained all day!”. She loved how colorful all of the supplies are, and how much she could make with the variety of craft supplies provided. This kit allows her to really let her imagination run wild, and she immediately began brainstorming ideas. Another plus she noticed? The scissors - she mentioned that it was helpful to have a set handy to trim the pipe cleaners she needed to make her festive red and green mustache.

She was also enamored with the craft supply carrying case, and how it is easy to find what she needs thanks to its transparency. When she was done crafting, she noted (and demonstrated) how easy it is to pack everything up and carry it around.

BONUS: Christmas Stocking Stuffer Ideas for Creative Tweens

Don’t forget stocking stuffers! You can find tons of smaller craft and art supplies that creative tweens will love from FLOMO. As an extra thanks for all of her “hard” reviewing work, we provided our tween tester with a Christmas stocking filled with multicolored retractable erasers, multiple sizes of scissors, glitter stickers, and a mini arts and crafts kit. We also included a few gift cards in festive holiday gift card holders.

This unique holiday party idea is great for getting everyone in the festive mood and helping them get their holiday wrapping done at the same time. No more waiting until the last minute and stressing right before the holidays - throw a Christmas gift wrapping party to bring friends together, get creative, and get it done! Plus, it's a perfect chance to show off your wrapping skills. In this post, we'll give you some tips on how to set up your party and what party supplies you'll need - all of which you can get right here on FLOMO. Let's get started!

Set-Up

• Holiday Backdrop

First, set the scene with a party backdrop. You can use any number of Christmas decorations for this, from balloons, to table covers on the wall, to garlands. The idea is to create a focal point for the party, as well as a place that’s perfect for photo ops. We decided to use paper garlands in a red-and-white color scheme and layered them on the wall above our gift wrap supply stations.

Underneath the paper garlands, we set up a table with gift-wrapping supplies in a vintage wooden “Reindeer Treats” container, which we wrapped with a winter greenery garland with red ornaments,  and added some glitzy metallic bows to complete the look.

Don’t be afraid to let some of the Christmas gift-wrapping supplies do double-duty as party decorations! We placed an extra large Christmas gift bag in the center of the table that complemented our general red and white party color scheme, but also had some pops of blue and green to snake it extra festive.

Then, on either side of the table, we added large Christmas llama and die-cut Santa gift bags. Llamas and die-cut party supplies have both been pretty popular in the last few years, so including them in the party decorations makes the party feel particularly trendy! We propped one of the gift bags on assembled Christmas gift boxes for extra height and added some Christmas bows to the base of the other for extra sparkle.

• Gift Wrap Supply Carts

On either side of the table, we set up supply carts with lots more Christmas gift-wrapping supplies. You can use smaller tables, but what we love most about the carts is that they roll. This makes it really easy to bring them over to the gift-wrapping table for easy access, and easy to share with whoever needs to replenish their supply at any given time.

We added some holiday cheer to the supply carts with a Christmas stocking, Santa hat, and red and white pom-pom garland. Bonus points if you wear the hat while you wrap!

On the cart, you’ll want to stock everything anyone might need to wrap all shapes and sizes of gifts. While an assortment of Christmas gift boxes are a must (we especially love these snow-filled ones to do double-duty as decoration), you’ll also want to think outside the box (literally!).

Holiday wrapping paper, gift bags, and tissue paper are staples, of course. But it’s also a great idea to provide your guests with cute Christmas-themed gift card holders and money holders, so they have options for any type of gift or recipient.

Adorable Christmas vehicle gift card boxes are a practical choice that also serve as décor for the carts!

Don’t feel the need to stick to purely traditional palettes and styles. Provide gift bags in a variety of colors and themes to fit every style. Both your guests' style and gift recipients.  We’re loving pink gift bags for Christmas!

To top it all off, you’ll need Christmas gift bows, ribbon, and/or string. We organized bows by color in clear pedestal jars for easy access.

Providing gift string with holiday-themed accessories lets your guests add an extra-special (and easy!) touch to any gift.

Adhesive gift tags make labeling gifts a breeze, and they come in lots of cute styles guests can mix and match with their gift wrapping to personalize their gifts even more. Especially when the tags have glitter or fun 3-D pompom elements!

• Gift Wrapping Table

Setting the table for this gift-wrapping party is pretty easy. You’ll want to keep it simple and not add too much décor, as guests will need the space for wrapping. Cover the table with a festive table cover, and create practical centerpieces by adding holiday pails of markers and other wrapping supplies. Guests will appreciate the convenience of having the essentials close by!

Speaking of essentials, you’ll want to have plenty of scissors and gift tape on hand.

Finally, add some wine glasses or paper cups to your table for drinks, and let the Christmas gift wrapping party begin!

The Five Rings of Christmas

In the song “12 Days of Christmas”, there is the line “five golden rings”. At FLOMO that means the five rings of a Christmas celebration. Five major rings are essential to making your Christmas celebration as spectacular as, the angel on top of a Christmas tree. Those rings are the Christmas tree, party decorations, dinner party ware, Christmas presents, and Christmas photos.

Christmas is one of the most festive times of the year, and just like two turtle doves, you want to spread the love. Even Santa Clause himself would agree that all of these are what make him jolly! Get ahead of the game, it is never too early to start planning your Christmas party. FLOMO has Christmas items in stock available on the wholesale website so you don’t have to worry about the supply chain issues we are currently facing today.

Ring 1: The Christmas Tree

One of the most iconic traditions of Christmas is to have a Christmas tree. Some people like to go out into the woods and get a fresh tree, or some just head to the store and purchase a faux one. No matter which one you choose, the Christmas tree can look spectacular once it is decorated, and the presents are sitting under it. FLOMO has a huge selection of garlands to wrap around the Christmas tree. There are options such as paper, pine, luxury, and more. The garland will look greatly coiled around your tree.

Another important item for a Christmas tree is the topper. The topper could be anything a star, an angel, or a bow. Decorative items such as ornaments, and lights are also important to make glisten in the night, as you sip your hot chocolate by the fire. Don’t forget the tree skirt, it is ideal for putting presents on. When your Christmas tree is ready on December 24th, Santa will leave some presents that loved ones asked for.

Ring 2: Party Decorations

Rock around the Christmas tree this holiday season, with the ones you love! Impress your friends and family by having cheerful, and festive Christmas decorations. Banners are great for decorating the walls. They can easily be put up or taken down. FLOMO also carries different hangers, to hang up decorations or ornaments around the house. They come in green, clear plastic, silver, or gold to blend in with their surroundings. No need to worry about tape or glue anymore! Decorate the fireplace by putting soft, velvet Christmas stockings with the family’s name on them. They are so cute and fluffy. You can put little gifts or candy inside them for Christmas morning!

Ring 3: Dinner Party Ware

The centerpiece of the Christmas holiday is the delicious food. Whether you plan on serving a five-course meal or an array of snacks, it is good to make the tables look just as festive as the tree. FLOMO carries table covers in many different colors for your Christmas celebration. They are great for small gatherings or massive banquets. You can serve your tasty meal on one of these decorative plates. There are also many different paper plates, cups, and napkin sets that have holiday-themed designs on them.

Ring 4: Christmas Presents

One thing everyone looks forward to on Christmas morning is the presents from family members and Santa Clause. It would help Santa out this holiday season if everyone had the most festive Christmas gift bags for him to wrap the gifts in.
