Lollipops!

Lollipops…..who doesn’t love them! Great for eating…..parties…..special treats…..and also great for decorating.

Course, here at Trendy Tree, the only Lollipops we sell…..are the decorative kind…..sadly. But I was browsing around today….Pinterest has been my new way of relaxing!  If you haven’t tried it….you must. And if you need an invitation, just let me know!

Anyway, back to Lollipops. This year we have several new styles of Lollipops, some rather large Lollipops and smaller one. Plus we even have more coming in from another supplier that we don’t even have listed on the website yet!

The Lollipops are just great hanging on the tree for decoration, but I wanted to find some other uses besides just the Christmas Tree.

This great centerpiece from RAZ uses two different styles of Lollipops from the Gumdrops and Jellybeans Collection.

A couple of RAZ Candy Garlands are used inside the container and around the base.

These decorations feature real lollipops from Dylan’s Candy Bar (photo by Kate Sears). The presentation was featured on Rachael Ray Magazine as a birthday centerpiece. I was thinking that you could take this same idea and use the decorative lollipops.

You could use Christmas containers…..or any sort of pretty pot decorated for your color scheme.  These pots were filled with Conversation Hearts, jelly beans, rock candy and Red Hots and the lollipops  nested in the mix.

I think you could use Styrofoam to hold the lollipops and just add some candy on top to cover the Styrofoam….or add bits of tinsel, paper shreds or something like that.

These Peppermint Lollipops (again, the real thing), look crisp and fresh in the simple white buckets. This photo was by Anita Calero and featured on Realsimple.com. Great Christmas looks that kids will love))

You could also dress up your Lollipops with a  bit of clear cellophane. Just wrap them in clear cellophane, gather at the neck and tie with bright ribbon in your color scheme. This will add shine and sparkle and even help them last longer! Some of the Lollipops we had last year from RAZ came wrapped in cellophane and there is just something about that crackly feel and shine…..don’t we all love things wrapped up pretty.

Just do a search on Trendy Tree for “lollipop” You should receive a return of about 9 different styles…..and more to come!

RAZ Christmas Decorations Trimmed with Poly Foam

RAZ designers have created several Christmas decorations this year that are decorated with snowy, fluffy poly foam. This material is light weight but what I’ve seen so far, it seems durable enough.

The RAZ Cupcake Sticks are made of this and look like fluffy white icing covered in candy sprinkles.

Another great decoration this year is the Lime Green and Pink Candy House from the Gumdrops and Jellybeans Collection. The Lime Green Candy House arrived this week and is made of a sisal material, roof top is covered with this soft fluffy poly foam snow, decorated with candy sprinkles. The fluffy material also is around the base of the house.

Click here to see a brief video that shows house from all sides.

There is a set of large Candy Snowmen that are also from the Gumdrops and Jellybeans collections that matches the Lime Green Candy House. This set of Candy Snowmen hasn’t arrived just yet, but should be coming in any day now. Actually they are shaped sort of like gumdrop candy. I love the upside down ice cream cone for a hat.

The Snowmen figurines and poseable Snowmen were so popular last year, we added several more styles to our collection for this year. This year these items can be found in the Frostyland Collection.



New items from the collection this year include a larger set of snowmen. This set of snowmen measure about 22 and 23 inches. They are made of polyester and cardboard. They are decorated with snowy hats and scarves, one is holding a candy cane and the other holding a string of stars.

The photo doesn’t really show the dept of the item, it’s not a round shape like a typical snowman, but more of a flatter shaped. We have a short video clip that shows the shape better.

To see the video click here. 

The other item that matches this set is the large Snowman Head. These are great for centerpieces, mantels, wreath and as ornaments on the Christmas tree. The Snowmen Heads are also from the Frostyland Collection.

Brrrrrrr…….it’s getting chilly! Well…..not really……it’s about 94 degrees in Mississippi today…….think that’s why I chose to blog about snow

RAZ Cupcake Sticks are in!

The new RAZ Cupcake Sticks arrived! These are going to be a great addition to your decoration in so many ways. The pictures really don’t do them justice so I’ve made a short little video so hopefully you get a better look at them.

The cupcakes are red or dark pink color. The white fluffy part is white and fluffy! Looks like candy sprinkles on top.

The sticks look like glittered paper straws, but heavier than that. They’ll look great on a tree, in an arrangement, tucked into containers here and there, even adorning wreaths.

Great new shoe ornaments in stock this year! Two new styles of glass slippers from Inge-Glas of Germany.

This new white glittery high heel shoe just came in from Germany.  Silvery white high heel shoe Christmas ornament with glittered swirl design. Made of European mouth blown, hand painted glass in Germany. Measures approximately 4 1/4″ This high heel shoe ornament also comes in  stunning red version.

If a more whimsical shoe fits your need, RAZ has come out with some new Pixie Elf Shoes. These shoes are a great combination of red, black, white, stripes and polka dots.
The Pixie in a Shoe is a set of two assorted styles. These are large ornaments measuring 6.5″ x 11″ and 10.5″ x 8″ These would look great as wall decorations, on wreath, even hanging from mantels.

The Pixie in a Shoe is a RAZ Exclusive designed by one of their most popular designers, Vela Burke and from the “Puttin on the Ritz” collection.

Pixies and Elves are very popular this year in the RAZ collections, in both the “Puttin on the Ritz” and “Gumdrops and Jellybeans.”

Another style of shoe ornament from Vela Burke is a Pixie perched on the heel of a shoe that is smaller and made of resin. This ornament is also red, black, white and green and is sold in a set of two ornaments.

We have four other sets of RAZ High Heel Shoe ornaments and a set of boots.

These RAZ High Heel Shoe ornaments are made of glass and are very popular. They make great table favors too. They are made of glass and measure about 3.5″. Also from the “Puttin on the Ritz” collection.

These red and silver glittered shoes are new for 2011 and also from the “Puttin on the Ritz” collection. They are larger at 4″ and made of plastic. A really nice choice for the younger girls. These red and silver shoe ornaments haven’t arrived just yet to Trendy Tree but should be coming in within the next few weeks.

This collection from “Puttin on the Ritz” is called RAZ Diva High Heels. A shiny assortment of sling back heels decorated in green, lime green and red. These are sold in a set of 4.

And, the Boot Collection. Always popular. Again in the green, lime green and red. Sold in sets of 4 and measure about 4 inches.

The snowflake used in the arrangements isn’t a RAZ snowflake, but we have some similar.
