I don’t get to the mall, alone, that often. When I’m with the kids it’s a fast paced trip, getting as much done as I can before someone blows their top (or diaper).
When I do have time to myself, at a mall, there are certain stores that I can spend a long leisurely amount of time in and one of them is most definitely Hallmark. Their stores have come a long way and are now not just about the cards. I really enjoy all the fun, family-friendly, seasonal items you can find a Hallmark – they have every season covered, and every family event as well.
For fall, you’ll find fun things in store like these adorable Peanuts Sentiment Figurines which remind me of my 80’s childhood. These, naturally, make great gifts for teachers all year long, as well as Peanuts fan (and who doesn’t love Charlie Brown?)
Another perfect gift for teachers, and also perfect for the family sitting room, are these Disney quotes featuring favorite classic characters.
One new product at Hallmark that I found really interesting are Text Bands. If you have a tween or even younger, these look like they could be really fun. Imagine – you and I only passed notes in school, now you can pass text messages by a simple “bump fist”…whatever that means. 😉 Because I’m an un-cool mom I had to watch this video to understand it a bit better, and I have to say, it does look pretty cool:
Finally, don’t forget Hallmark when looking for awesome Halloween decorations for the house and special spooky items for the kids. We received an awesome My Pet Ghost that my kids adore. For $9.95 it’s a really fun Halloween item to have, and bring to school to share with friends. Our new Witch’s Hat Door Decor is screaming fun (with the amount of deliveries I receive, this is even more fun for me than it is for the kids I think!)
Of course, there’s plenty more to be found in store, including fun Trickery and Treats Presenter trunk to keep candy or spooky things inside. Head to your local Hallmark store or shop online now to check out all these fantastic items and more for fall!

I love that I can always depend on Hallmark for meaningful gifts for every occasion. My boyfriend lives in a different country and whenever he comes to see me he buys me a collectible stuffed animal from there. They are the cutest little things and that makes hallmark all the more special to me, knowing all my hallmark animals are from him. I remember the first time he got me one, we were younger and before we left the hotel I tucked in the little puppy he got me into our bed and treated it like it was a baby 😛 i know its embarassing but i was young! seemed so cute at the time.. anywhoo Hallmark has quality gifts and cards. I just love their stores!
