Ireland Top 5 themed parties for girls 2012

As we already did the boys top themes we thought it was time to ‘release’ our top 5 girls party themes of 2012.

At TheBigParty.ie we take order for boys and girls themed parties in equal measure so sales are broadly similar. The products on offer tend to reflect the assumed preference of girls for princesses and boys for cars and guns.

Based on sales the top 5 for 2012 were:

1.       Minnie Mouse

2.       Tangled

3.       Monster High

4.       Disney Princess

5.       Charming Horses
 

The themes are categorised between boys and girls and so assumes that a sale of Minnie Mouse is for a girl whereas Mickey Mouse is a boy and clearly this is not 100% accurate.

It is amazing how strong the Disney factor continues to be with many other Disney themes selling well in addition to those above.  This will no doubt continue in 2013.

Other strong sellers in 2012 were Pirate Girls & HippieChick.

Across all the themes customers are increasingly looking for value and the party pack range which offers all you need for a party with up to 16 guests for €29.95 proved very popular in 2012. Whatever theme is the big winner in 2013 it is clear that young boy’s will continue to want their favourite to be a feature of their party.

Pantone ‘Party’ Colour of 2013 Is Emerald Green!

Pantone has announced its 2013 color of the year and it’s a gem!  The color announced earlier this month is Emerald green, more specifically Pantone 17-5641. It now reigns as the hot new hue for 2013. 

Emerald green, described by the experts as “Lively.  Radiant.  Lush. A colour of elegance and beauty that enhances our sense of well-being, balance and harmony” sounds like the perfect shade to surround yourself in this year.

With St. Patrick's Day upcoming it is a great time to decorate your home or business in the ‘colour of the year’
