Iota Debuts Festive Holiday Tabletop and Gifting Items

Basalt, Colo. — Iota, a purveyor of trend-setting stationery and gifting essentials, announces the highly anticipated debut of its first-ever holiday collection, Seafoam Yuletide, featuring festive tabletop, gifting and decorative accessories. From paper tableware to a brand new line of ceramics, iota dresses holiday gatherings in deeply saturated reds and greens, and offers delicious holiday treats for home entertaining and thoughtful gift giving. All new products will be on display at the National Stationery Show in New York, May 16-19, 2010, in booth number #2345 –2347.

Derived from iota’s popular Seafoam pattern (a veritable celebrity in iota’s 2010 January line), the Seafoam Yuletide collection adds new ways to trim the holiday table and present the present:

• paper tableware collection consisting of 10″ square plates, 7″ luncheon/dessert plates and a selection of four coordinating napkin sizes
• coaster gift box set
• set of four 6″ square ceramic dessert plates in a decorative box
• set of four ceramic napkin rings in a decorative box
• set of two ceramic bottle toppers in a decorative box
• decorative trivet
• gift bags

“Peace in your heart manifests peace on earth”
Nearly all of iota’s new holiday items come in decorative packaging for eye-catching merchandising options, easy wrapping (or elegant gifting “as is”) and home storage throughout the non-holiday months of the year. Iota’s inspiring holiday motto, “peace in your heart manifests peace on earth” is present on the packaging and integral to the trivet design.
