Ensueño Laundry is Bringing The Abuela Attitude Right To Your Laundry Room with the "Abuela Tag Reader" Campaign

Yahoo11-06-2025
The Mobile Activation Will Offer Abuela-Approved Laundry Advice To Help Decipher Any Laundry Tag
HOUSTON, June 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Ensueño Laundry, the premier complete portfolio laundry care brand and a favorite among Hispanic-American households, has created a new digital experience, "Abuela Tag Reader" to help translate laundry care tags into simple directions to get the best clean possible.
Oftentimes, the symbols on a laundry care tag can seem like hieroglyphics. It can feel like you're trying to crack a secret code, and if you're wrong you could end up with your favorite shirt coming out of the dryer looking like it's made for a baby doll. With the Abuela Tag Reader, real-life abuelas will guide users through what each symbol means, washing best practices, drying techniques, and more. That means some tough love, a little bit of sass, and a lot of lessons learned all on-demand when you need it.
"In Latino culture, there's an Abuela way to do your laundry and a wrong way to do your laundry," said Cristina Mustieles, Senior Brand Manager, at Ensueño. "These matriarchs have decades of experience, so what better way to share 'expert advice' than by having it come from the true, original source? There's a sense of love there; they want you to succeed. But, there's also some spice; they will call you out if you do it wrong or don't listen. This is such a fun campaign because it really strikes that balance between being a helpful resource and the nostalgia of your own grandmother scoffing as if she were the one teaching you."
Laundry can often feel like a burdensome chore, but the Abuela Tag Reader aims to add a fun and engaging twist to learning about laundry. The digital mobile-first experience makes it easy to utilize in day-to-day life whether you're a laundry veteran who is stumped on how to approach a delicate fabric or doing your first load on your own and encounter a symbol you've never seen before. The abuelas' breakdown instructions are simple – and even a little cheeky.
Customers can visit AbuelaTagReader.com on their mobile device to scan any laundry care tag. The webpage will act as a hub of information, containing videos from abuelas that break down how to tackle even the most confusing of laundry care tags. In addition, customers will be able to redeem a coupon for $2 off select Ensueño products at H-E-B while supplies last.
The abuela is an icon in Hispanic culture – she is the heart and soul of the family. She's a source of wisdom, love and comfort but with a presence deserving of respect. The Abuela Tag Reader experience aims to bottle that familiar feeling, sharing a small piece of Ensueño's heritage with people from all cultures. Beautifully blunt and always there when you need it, the Abuela Tag Reader makes deciphering laundry easy, silly, and entertaining.

Christmas decorations come with a higher price tag this holiday season, thanks to tariffs.

The Christmas decorations industry is hoping Donald Trump's tariffs don't ruin the holidays. The vast majority of artificial Christmas trees, lights and other decor are imported — mostly from China. Because seasonal items typically need to be shipped months ahead of time, stiffer levies have already added millions of dollars in unexpected costs. Jared Hendricks, founder and chief executive officer of Village Lighting Company in West Valley City, Utah, had to take a line of credit leveraged by his house and office to help cover the $1.5 million in extra tariff costs. 'This is the most stressful year I've ever had,' said Hendricks, whose business sells lights, garlands and wreaths to professional installers and consumers. 'Over the last 20-some-odd years we've been through a lot, and I'm just kind of operating on faith that we'll find a way.' As Trump's ever-changing announcements on tariffs rolled in during the crucial shipping period for the industry, managers from across the country said they had to cancel shipments, cut down on orders and lay off workers to be able to pay the duties. Some expressed concerns about staying in business. For shoppers this holiday season, the shipping disruptions will mean less choice of products in the stores and prices that could be 10% to 20% higher than last year as a result of tariffs, said Jami Warner, executive director of the American Christmas Tree Association. An artificial tree that cost $299 in 2024, say, could fetch as much as $359 this year. 'This is a happy industry, and this is a pretty unhappy time to be in it,' Warner said. By the end of August, much of the year's imported Christmas trees and other decorations have been shipped, and retailers are busy preparing for the holiday season when they make the bulk of their sales. Another question this year is whether uncertainty about the direction of the economy will weigh on holiday spending.'It's going to be a challenging holiday season for lots of retailers,' said Natalie Kotlyar, a retail analyst at advisory firm BDO. U.S. companies imported $3.4 billion in artificial Christmas trees, ornaments, and other holiday decorations last year, and 87% came from China, according to the U.S. Census Bureau trade data. In addition, roughly $420 million in light strings came from abroad, a majority from Cambodia, a country that also faces a high tariff rate. Trump often says that companies can avoid import levies by making their products in the U.S. The administration's America First policies, including tariffs, are focused on unleashing real prosperity for American workers with good-paying jobs — 'not cheap imports,' White House spokesman Kush Desai said in an emailed statement. Craig Batten, president of S4 Lights in Toano, Virginia, said he has explored making Christmas lights in the U.S. but 'found that that was about impossible.' The only place to get many raw materials is in China and Southeast Asia, and finding enough workers here is a problem, he said. Batten added a line item to his invoices called 'tariff impact,' but he can't pass along the entire cost of the duties because that would raise prices too high. 'We're taking a hit, hoping that our existing inventory that we got pre-tariff helps offset the sticker shock,' he said. When tariffs on goods imported from China temporarily reached 145% in April, American Christmas LLC, stopped shipments and canceled 10% of orders, said CEO Dan Casterella. The Mount Vernon, New York-based company, which installs holiday displays in places such as retail stores, corporate headquarters and Christmas sites like the Rockefeller Center, resumed shipping when the duties were temporarily reduced to 30% in May as part of a trade-war truce with China. After another 90-day extension earlier this month, the new deadline for a trade deal is Nov. 10. The rate could go up or down, depending on negotiations between the US and China. Casterella says it's impossible to plan for next year without knowing what the tariff rates will be. He usually starts ordering in October or November for the following Christmas. 'I don't necessarily disagree with the mindset of having tariffs,' Casterella said. 'It's just the uncertainty right now of that around them is making it difficult to run a business.' Three Kings Gifts in Cockeysville, Maryland, specializes in nativity sets and small chests of gold, frankincense, and myrrh — the three gifts given to baby Jesus in the Bible. Rich Terlep says he's used contractors in China since starting the company in 2005. For instance, workers use a tiny tip of a peacock feather to put the pupils in the eyes of figurines. It's a low-wage job that wouldn't be filled in the U.S., he said. Terlep scurried to get 11 containers carrying about 700 sets each shipped so they would land in the U.S. before the initial Aug. 12 deadline. He's decided to eat the tens of thousands of dollars in additional costs from tariffs. 'Everyone is hoping against hope that somehow or another sanity is going to emerge out of this because it is unsustainable,' Terlep said. At Balsam Hill, one of the leading companies in the holiday-decorations business, the tariffs bill is expected to come to about $15 million this year — up from $1 million last year, according to Mac Harman, founder and CEO of parent company Balsam Brands. To preserve cash to pay tariffs, the California-based firm scaled back orders, cut 10% of its global workforce of 350 employees, and froze raises and travel. But none of those actions come close to covering the cost of the tariffs, Harman said. The Christmas Trade Group, which represents small and medium-sized decoration firms, has requested a tariff exemption from the Trump administration. The group argues that domestic production is impossible, decorations are critical to holiday retail sales and that tariffs effectively force businesses to choose between operating at a loss and closing. Jonathan Gold, vice president of supply chain and customs policy at the National Retail Federation, said he's heard from a number of owners who are concerned about the viability of their business. The Christmas Trade Group has been encouraged by conversations it's had both with members of Congress and the administration, said Josh Fendrick, a principal with Williams & Jensen representing the coalition. The White House didn't say whether the exclusion request would be considered. There's a precedent for relief. In his first term, Trump delayed some tariffs on Chinese imports, saying at the time 'so it won't be relevant to the Christmas shopping season.' 'We sell joy, we sell memories,' said Chris Butler of National Tree Company in New Jersey. 'If any industry had a shot at getting some kind of exemption from the administration, it would be us.' Niquette writes for Bloomberg.
